Pilot Expo 2025

The International Pilot Recruitment and Training Expo in 2025 will take place in Skyhall, located in Brussels Airport. It is the largest Flight Crew training event in Europe, with 5000+ visitors, 100+ exhibitors, and 50+ speakers.

The Pilot Expo consists of four main components – an exhibition (trade show), conferences, workshops and the Airliners’ Party.

Numerous European, Middle Eastern, and Asian airlines, along with recruitment agencies, flight training providers, aviation universities, and aircraft manufacturers, participate in the two-day trade show at Pilot Expo.

Licensed pilots, cabin crew, and maintenance personnel have the opportunity to discover what various European, Middle Eastern, Asian, and a few U.S. airlines have to offer and to apply for jobs on the spot.

Aspiring pilots have the chance to compare offers and explore financing possibilities from a wide range of participating flight schools and other training organizations.

Our two-day on-site conference is divided into two independent divisions: "Aces" and "Future Pilots" each designed to address the specific needs of their respective target audiences. Each conference division has a capacity of 400 seats, totaling 800. The theme for the 2025 conferences is "Future of Aviation".

The "Aces" conference division caters to experienced pilots and covers a wide range of topics, including industry innovations, technical and economic developments in aircraft and airlines, and various career options for pilots. As tradition dictates, midday sessions on both Friday and Saturday are dedicated to airlines, allowing them to showcase their working conditions and employment opportunities.

The "Future Pilots" conference primarily focuses on different aspects of training planning. It emphasizes the importance of assessing a trainee's profile before investing in pilot education, explores available funding and financing options, and presents several popular airline cadet programs. Similar to the "Aces" division, both Friday and Saturday midday sessions for 'Future Pilots' are reserved for flight schools and airlines to present their training offerings to aspiring pilots.

The 'Airliners' Party', our night networking event held on Friday evening, offers exhibitors and visitors a wonderful opportunity to gather in an informal atmosphere, enjoy music from various bands and DJs, partake in a show, savor refreshments, and bask in the fantastic venue. For many, this event is a long-awaited reunion with old flight school friends or long-forgotten cockpit colleagues.

The lineup of artists performing at the Airliners' Party in 2025 will be announced starting November 2024.
