Aegean Airlines is the flag carrier of Greece, founded in 1999 and now the largest Greek airline by passengers, destinations, and fleet size. A Star Alliance member since 2010, Aegean operates from its main hub at Athens International Airport (ATH) with secondary bases at Thessaloniki (SKG), Larnaca (LCA) in Cyprus, and several seasonal Greek island airports. The airline carried 16.3 million passengers in 2024 across 250 routes in 47 countries, generating approximately €1.8 billion in revenue. Aegean has been awarded Best Regional Airline in Europe by the Skytrax World Airline Awards for 13 consecutive years — an extraordinary record of consistency.
Fleet Renewal & A320neo Programme
Aegean operates an all-Airbus mainline fleet of approximately 55 aircraft: A320ceo and A320neo for short-haul European services, and A321ceo and A321neo for medium-haul routes to the Middle East, North Africa, and across Europe. The fleet renewal programme is one of Europe's most ambitious for a carrier of Aegean's size — a total order of 60 A320/A321neo family aircraft, of which 36 have been delivered. In a significant strategic move, Aegean has ordered A321LR (Long Range) variants with a dedicated premium configuration — 138 seats including 24 fully flat business class suites — for intercontinental services. The first routes to India (New Delhi and Mumbai) were planned for early 2026 but have been postponed to 2027 due to Airbus A321XLR delivery delays and Pratt & Whitney engine inspection requirements.
The subsidiary Olympic Air operates ATR 72-600, ATR 42-600, and Dash 8-100 turboprops on Greek domestic routes and island connections — a network that is essential to Greek national connectivity and provides an entry point for pilots seeking to join the Aegean group. Aegean employs over 2,500 people and its pilot corps is supported by the Aegean Pilot Scholarship Programme, which trains up to 40 new cadet pilots per year. The airline is publicly listed on the Athens Stock Exchange and majority-owned by Greek entrepreneur Theodoros Vassilakis.

Stage 1: Online Application & Document Screening
Aegean publishes pilot vacancies through its dedicated careers portal (jobs.aegeanair.com). The airline recruits separately for two distinct pilot pools: mainline A320/A321 pilots and Olympic Air ATR 42/72 pilots. Applications require your CV, EASA licence copies, flight time summary, and supporting documentation. Minimum requirements include: EASA ATPL(A) or frozen ATPL, current Class 1 medical, ICAO English Level 4, and EU/EEA citizenship or valid work permit for Greece.
Type-Rated vs Non-Type-Rated Entry
Aegean hires both type-rated and non-type-rated pilots. Type-rated candidates holding current A320 family ratings have an advantage for mainline positions, while ATR 42/72 type-rated pilots are preferred for Olympic Air. Non-type-rated pilots are also considered — Aegean provides a rigorous type rating programme for successful candidates. The airline specifically states it seeks pilots who demonstrate "high standards of flying skills, professionalism, integrity and customer focus" — language that signals a strong emphasis on soft skills alongside technical competence.
Direct-entry Captain positions are available for experienced pilots meeting Aegean's command requirements. For First Officers, both experienced airline pilots and recently qualified pilots with lower hours are considered, though practical airline experience is preferred. The Olympic Air regional fleet (ATR 42/72) often serves as an entry point for lower-hour pilots who subsequently transition to the mainline Aegean fleet — a common career progression pattern within the group.
Stage 2: Aptitude & Personality Assessment
Aegean's computerised assessment evaluates cognitive aptitude and personality traits. The aptitude component tests spatial reasoning, numerical processing, multi-tasking, reaction time, and memory — standard dimensions for European airline pilot selection. The assessment typically takes 1.5–2 hours and is administered at Aegean's facilities in Athens or may be conducted online in the initial screening phase.
Personality Profiling & Cultural Fit
The personality assessment is a significant component of Aegean's selection. The questionnaire measures traits relevant to airline operations: work style preferences, communication approach, stress tolerance, assertiveness, conscientiousness, and teamwork orientation. Aegean places strong emphasis on identifying candidates whose personality profile aligns with the airline's culture — a company that prides itself on service excellence, safety consciousness, and the "Greek hospitality" ethos that underpins its 13 consecutive Skytrax Best Regional Airline awards.
The personality test typically takes 15–20 minutes and presents statements or scenarios with multiple response options. Answer authentically — the questionnaire includes validity scales that detect inconsistent or overly strategic responding. A balanced profile that shows both assertiveness and cooperativeness, both confidence and openness to feedback, will score well. Extreme profiles in any direction are flagged for further assessment during the interview stage.
"The aptitude test was similar to other European airline assessments. The personality questionnaire was detailed — they clearly care about cultural fit alongside cognitive ability. Aegean has a specific identity and they want pilots who embody it." — Candidate report, Aegean assessment, Athens, 2025
Stage 3: Technical Assessment
The technical assessment covers ATPL-level knowledge with practical application: aerodynamics, meteorology, navigation, aircraft performance, and systems. For Aegean specifically, candidates should be prepared for questions relevant to Mediterranean and Eastern Mediterranean operations: Meltemi wind patterns in the Aegean Sea, sea breeze effects on Greek island approaches, mountain wave turbulence around mainland Greek airports, and the operational challenges of short island runways with complex terrain and wind conditions.
Airbus Systems & ATR-Specific Knowledge
Airbus systems awareness is tested at a conceptual level — understanding of fly-by-wire philosophy, normal law protections, ECAM logic, and the operational differences between A320ceo and A320neo variants. For candidates applying to the ATR fleet at Olympic Air, turboprop-specific knowledge (propeller governing, torque management, single-engine performance) replaces the Airbus content. The technical assessment is designed to verify that your ATPL knowledge is current and practically relevant, not to test obscure theoretical edge cases.
Greek airspace has specific characteristics worth knowing: Athens FIR is one of the busiest in Southern Europe during summer, Greek island airports frequently require non-precision approaches (VOR/DME, RNAV) with challenging terrain, and noise-sensitive operations apply at many tourist-dependent island airports. Demonstrating awareness of these operational realities signals thorough preparation beyond generic ATPL revision.
Stage 4: Interview
The interview panel typically includes an Aegean training captain or fleet manager and an HR representative. The session covers motivation, career history, behavioural competencies, and CRM scenarios. Aegean uses competency-based interviewing — expect "Tell me about a time when..." questions exploring your experience with teamwork, conflict resolution, decision-making under pressure, leadership, and customer focus.
Company Knowledge & Motivation Questions
Aegean interviewers will test your knowledge of the airline and your motivation for joining. Why Aegean? Why Athens? Strong answers demonstrate understanding of Aegean's unique position: Greece's flag carrier with 13 consecutive Skytrax Best Regional Airline awards, a Star Alliance member with extensive European and Middle Eastern coverage, the upcoming long-haul entry with A321LR to India, the diverse flying environment (from major European airports to challenging Greek island strips), and the quality of life in Athens (climate, culture, cost of living). Candidates should also show awareness of the challenges: seasonal demand fluctuations with extreme summer peaks, the Pratt & Whitney GTF engine issues currently grounding approximately 10 aircraft, and competition from Ryanair and other LCCs on Greek routes.
Customer focus is a distinctive Aegean value. The airline has built its reputation on service quality that exceeds expectations for a carrier of its size. Demonstrating that you understand the connection between cockpit professionalism and passenger experience — on-time performance, smooth flight operations, clear passenger communications — aligns with Aegean's brand identity.
"The interview was thorough but fair. They asked detailed CRM scenarios and were clearly interested in how I communicate under pressure. They also spent time on company knowledge — they wanted to see that I understood what makes Aegean different from a generic European carrier." — Aegean assessment candidate, Athens, 2025

The simulator assessment is conducted in the A320 simulator at Aegean's training facilities or a partner training centre. The session evaluates instrument flying, multi-crew coordination, workload management, and decision-making under progressively complex scenarios. For candidates applying to the mainline fleet, the A320 simulator is standard; for Olympic Air ATR candidates, a turboprop simulator or assessment may be used.
Assessment Criteria & CRM Evaluation
Aegean's simulator assessment follows the European standard format: briefing, followed by exercises including instrument approaches, departure procedures, system malfunctions, weather deviations, and emergency scenarios. The workload increases through the session. Assessors focus on your scan technique, callout discipline, CRM (communication with the other pilot), use of automation, and error management. The critical evaluation criteria are situational awareness and decisive thinking — Aegean's published recruitment language specifically mentions these qualities.
Greek island operations create unique challenges that may be reflected in simulator scenarios: short runways with displaced thresholds, complex terrain requiring precise approach path management, gusty crosswind conditions (the Meltemi can generate 30+ knot crosswinds at Aegean island airports during summer), and visual approach requirements in areas without precision instrument approach infrastructure. While the simulator assessment tests general skills rather than destination-specific knowledge, demonstrating composure in challenging conditions is particularly valued.
"The sim session was well-structured. They briefed clearly and were looking for safe, systematic flying — not heroics. CRM was assessed throughout. When I had a minor deviation, they noted how I communicated it and recovered. That mattered more than the deviation itself." — Successful Aegean candidate, pilot forum, 2024
Stage 6: Medical & Final Decision
Candidates who pass all assessment stages must hold or obtain a valid EASA Class 1 medical certificate. Greece has designated Aeromedical Examiners and Centres — Aegean may direct candidates to specific facilities. The medical includes standard assessments (cardiovascular, neurological, ophthalmological, ENT) plus drug testing as required by EASA regulations.
Following the medical, Aegean's recruitment board reviews the complete candidate profile and makes a final decision. Successful candidates receive a conditional offer, subject to type rating completion (for non-type-rated candidates) and satisfactory background checks. Aegean provides type rating training for non-type-rated pilots joining the mainline fleet. The onboarding process from conditional offer to line release typically spans 4–6 months, including type rating, operating experience, and line checks.
Aegean Pilot Scholarship Programme
Aegean established its Pilot Scholarship Programme in 2018, one of the most structured cadet initiatives among European regional carriers. The current three-year cycle (2026–2028) will select up to 120 candidates — approximately 40 per year — for integrated commercial pilot licence training. The programme is a genuine scholarship: Aegean funds the training and graduates begin their careers as First Officers at Aegean or Olympic Air.
Training Academies & Flight Programme
Training is conducted at two Greek academies: Global Aviation Academy (based at Athens International Airport) and Egnatia Aviation Academy (based at Kavala, northern Greece). The programme covers the complete CPL(A)/IR with MCC, producing graduates who are ready for airline operations. The training is aligned with Aegean's operational standards and SOPs, giving graduates a significant advantage in the transition to line operations.
The Scholarship Programme is restricted to Greek and Cypriot nationals. Eligibility requirements include: Greek or Cypriot citizenship, completion of secondary education, age requirements as specified in each cycle's announcement, and for male candidates, completion of military obligations (mandatory military service in Greece). Candidates who have received a deferment from military service are explicitly excluded. The selection process includes aptitude testing, interviews, and medical screening. For qualified Greek and Cypriot nationals, this programme represents an exceptional opportunity — fully funded flight training with a path to a Star Alliance flag carrier cockpit.
"The Aegean Scholarship Programme is one of the best cadet deals in Europe. Fully funded, training at two reputable Greek academies, and a direct pathway to Aegean or Olympic Air. For Greek nationals, it is the premier route into the cockpit." — Greek aviation community, pilot forum, 2025
Long-Haul Expansion: A321LR and India Routes
Aegean is entering the long-haul market for the first time in its history — a transformative strategic move for a carrier that has operated exclusively within Europe and the near-Mediterranean for 26 years. The airline has ordered six long-range aircraft: initially two A321XLR (Extra Long Range) and four A321LR (Long Range). However, in early 2026, Aegean cancelled the A321XLR orders due to Airbus delivery delays and will instead standardise the sub-fleet on the A321LR variant.
Premium Cabin Configuration & Route Network
These six aircraft will feature a dedicated premium configuration with only 138 seats — far fewer than the 220 seats in Aegean's standard A321neo. The business class cabin will offer 24 fully flat suites with direct aisle access, satellite Wi-Fi, and 4K entertainment screens at every seat. The aircraft are capable of flights up to 8.5 hours (A321LR), opening markets previously inaccessible with Aegean's existing fleet. The first routes — Athens to New Delhi and Athens to Mumbai — were originally planned for early 2026 but have been postponed to 2027. Future destinations under evaluation include Bangalore, the Maldives, the Seychelles, Nairobi, and Almaty.
For pilots, this long-haul expansion creates new career opportunities and operational variety. Pilots assigned to the A321LR sub-fleet will operate significantly longer sectors than the current European network, with layovers in India and potentially Africa and Central Asia. The premium cabin product means higher service standards and a different operational tempo compared to the high-frequency European shuttle operations. This expansion is likely to increase pilot demand and create new command opportunities as Aegean builds the long-haul operation.
Aegean Pilot Assessment Preparation — Sample Questions
Preparing for the Aegean pilot assessment? Below are three questions from our Aegean question bank with the coaching frameworks that candidates use to prepare. The first shows the complete answer — all paragraphs, tips, and airline-specific context. Each of the 211 questions in the full pack averages 600 words of structured coaching per answer.
Describe the A320 fly-by-wire flight control system — normal, alternate, and direct law.
Normal Law: Full Protection — In Normal Law, the A320's flight control computers (2 ELAC + 3 SEC + 2 FAC) provide comprehensive envelope protections that fundamentally change the pilot-aircraft relationship. Pitch: the sidestick commands load factor (g), not pitch rate — releasing the sidestick returns the aircraft to 1g flight (the aircraft trims itself to the current speed). Protections include alpha protection (at high alpha, sidestick authority is progressively reduced; at alpha max, the aircraft pitches down regardless of input), alpha floor (below a certain speed, TOGA thrust is commanded automatically), and load factor limiting (+2.5g clean, +2.0g in configuration).
Roll: the sidestick commands roll rate — releasing it levels the wings to 0° bank. Maximum bank is 67° with full deflection, with automatic bank reduction above 33° when released. Yaw: the FACs provide yaw damping, turn coordination, and rudder travel limiting. For Aegean, Normal Law is the standard operating condition: it provides the envelope protections that enable confident handling during Meltemi crosswind approaches at Mykonos and Santorini, knowing the aircraft will not exceed structural limits regardless of gust intensity.
Alternate Law: Reduced Protections — Alternate Law activates when specific redundancy is lost — typically failure of 2 or more ADIRU (Air Data Inertial Reference Units), certain double hydraulic failures, or specific ELAC/SEC failures. The transition is indicated by the amber ECAM alert 'ALTN LAW' and an amber X replacing the green = sign on the PFD speed scale. In Alternate Law, some protections are retained and some are lost. Pitch: load factor demand is maintained, but alpha protection changes to alpha limitation (a softer boundary — the pilot can exceed it with sustained input) and alpha floor is LOST (no automatic TOGA thrust).
Roll: direct relationship between sidestick deflection and roll rate — no bank angle protection. The aircraft will roll beyond 67° if the pilot commands it, and releasing the sidestick does NOT level the wings — it holds the current bank. Overspeed and low-speed warnings remain. For Aegean operations, Alternate Law means increased pilot monitoring requirements: without alpha floor, a speed decay during a demanding approach (Skiathos's 1,628m runway, Heraklion's cliff-edge Rwy 27) could progress to a stall without automatic protection. The pilot must actively manage speed and angle of attack.
Direct Law: Minimal Computer Intervention — Direct Law is the most degraded state before mechanical backup. It activates after multiple computer failures or when the landing gear is extended in Alternate Law (below a certain logic condition). In Direct Law, sidestick deflection directly commands control surface deflection with no computer augmentation — no load factor demand, no speed stability, no bank angle protection, no alpha protection, no yaw damping. The aircraft handles like a conventional un-augmented aircraft: the pilot must manually trim, manage speed stability (if the aircraft accelerates, it will NOT self-correct back to the trimmed speed), and maintain safe angle of attack through instrument scan and technique. The PFD shows an amber USE MAN PITCH TRIM message. For Aegean pilots, Direct Law handling is trained in the simulator but almost never encountered in line operations — the system architecture (triple redundancy in most paths) makes progression to Direct Law extremely unlikely. However, the technical interview tests whether you understand the degradation path and what pilot actions change at each level.
Mechanical Backup: Last Resort — If all flight control computers fail (ELAC, SEC, FAC all lost), the A320 reverts to mechanical backup: the Trimmable Horizontal Stabiliser (THS) provides pitch control through manual trim wheels in the centre pedestal, and the rudder provides directional and limited roll control through the rudder pedals connected mechanically to the rudder actuator. There are NO ailerons or spoilers available — the only roll authority comes from the rudder's yaw-roll coupling effect. This is a dire emergency requiring immediate landing at the nearest suitable airport. For the Aegean interview, you are unlikely to be tested deeply on mechanical backup, but knowing it exists and that pitch = manual THS trim and roll = rudder only demonstrates complete system understanding. When answering this question, use the 'funnel' approach: start with Normal Law (daily operations), progress through Alternate and Direct (degraded states), and end with Mechanical Backup — this mirrors the degradation path and shows systematic thinking.
Tip: Normal Law: sidestick commands load factor (pitch) and roll rate. Protections: alpha, alpha floor (auto TOGA), load factor limiting (+2.5g/−1.0g), bank 67° max. Releasing sidestick: pitch returns to 1g, roll returns to wings level. Alternate Law: alpha floor LOST, bank protection LOST, releasing sidestick holds current bank. Direct Law: no augmentation, no protections, manual trim required. Mechanical backup: THS + rudder only, no ailerons/spoilers. Use the degradation path structure for your answer. Connect to Aegean: Normal Law enables confident Meltemi handling.

During a non-precision VOR approach to Mykonos Rwy 34 in gusty 30-knot Meltemi conditions, the autopilot disconnects unexpectedly at 800 ft AGL. Describe your immediate manual flying actions, scan priorities, and decision criteria for continuing versus going around.
I Would Immediately Take Manual Control — If the autopilot disconnects at 800ft AGL during a non-precision VOR approach to Mykonos Rwy 34 in 30kt gusting Meltemi, I would take positive manual control of the aircraft and announce: "I have control, autopilot disconnect." This is one of the most demanding approaches in European commercial aviation: no ILS precision guidance, 1,902m × 30m narrow runway, turbulent crosswind from the north through the Cycladic channels, and rising terrain at 1–1.5nm. I would maintain the VOR radial tracking with constant correction, continue the CDFA (Continuous Descent Final Approach) technique manually, add the appropriate gust correction to my approach speed, and maintain a stabilised approach. If at any point the approach becomes unstabilised below 500ft — excessive bank angle, airspeed deviations, or losing the radial — I would go around without hesitation.

Describe a go-around you have performed — what triggered it and how did you manage the crew?
Describe the Go-Around Trigger — Choose a real go-around from your flying experience and describe what triggered it specifically: unstable approach (parameters outside limits at the gate altitude), windshear warning (reactive or predictive), ATC instruction (traffic on the runway, spacing issue), visibility below minima, or a personal decision that conditions were not right for a safe landing. The panel values go-arounds that were called proactively (before the gate) over those that were reactive (at the gate or below). At Aegean, go-around triggers that are operationally relevant include: Meltemi crosswind exceeding limits during approach at island airports, tailwind shift developing at airports with single-runway options (Mykonos, Santorini, Skiathos), unstable approach on non-precision profiles (higher minimums, less precise guidance), and Heraklion's unique terrain hazard where the cliff edge before Rwy 27 can mask altitude references.

What Successful Candidates Say
Based on candidate reports across pilot assessment forums, Glassdoor, and the Greek aviation community, here are the patterns that separate successful Aegean candidates from those who do not progress:
Aegean's service quality is not a marketing slogan — it is the airline's identity. Thirteen consecutive Skytrax Best Regional Airline awards are not an accident. Aegean has built its brand on exceeding customer expectations, and this ethos extends to the cockpit. Interviewers want to see that you understand the connection between professional flight operations and passenger experience. On-time performance, smooth handling, clear PA announcements, and professional conduct on the ramp are all part of the Aegean pilot profile. Candidates who treat the airline as "just another A320 operator" will miss this crucial cultural dimension.
Greek island operations are a unique operational environment. Aegean and Olympic Air serve dozens of Greek island airports, many with short runways, complex terrain, and challenging wind conditions — particularly the Meltemi (Etesian) winds that dominate the Aegean Sea from May to September. Demonstrating knowledge of these operational challenges — steep approaches at Santorini, crosswind operations at Mykonos, terrain-critical departures at mountainous mainland airports — shows that you understand the flying environment rather than just the airline brand. This is a significant differentiator for international candidates.
The A321LR expansion to India is a talking point — use it wisely. Aegean's entry into long-haul operations is the most significant strategic development in the airline's history. Showing enthusiasm for this expansion and understanding the strategic rationale (Greece as a gateway between Europe and South/Southeast Asia, the growing Indian tourism market, Athens' geographic position) demonstrates forward-thinking. However, be realistic about timelines — the India routes have been delayed, and Aegean is approaching the expansion cautiously. The airline values careful, consistent growth over aggressive risk-taking.
Olympic Air is a legitimate career entry point. Many successful Aegean mainline pilots began their careers at Olympic Air on ATR turboprops, flying the demanding Greek island network. If you are a lower-hour pilot, do not dismiss the Olympic Air pathway — the turboprop experience, the challenging flying environment, and the operational integration with Aegean create a natural progression to the mainline A320 fleet. Mentioning this career pathway in your interview shows that you understand the group structure and are committed to building experience within the Aegean family.
"At AEGEAN, people have always been our greatest asset. We invest in establishing a people-centred culture in which employees feel satisfied and proud in their work environment. We are constantly undertaking initiatives to create new opportunities for personal growth and professional development." — Aegean Airlines careers portal
