Transition Directly to United Airlines from Ameriflight through Aviate
At Ameriflight, we understand the value and importance of career progression. We want to provide our pilots with opportunities to get the most out of their professional flying career.
We joined Aviate, United’s industry-leading pilot career development program offering aspiring and established pilots the most direct path to a United flight deck, at its inception back in 2020. Since then, the program has evolved.
We are excited to announce changes to the Aviate program that will get you from Ameriflight to United Airlines faster than ever!
The biggest change to the program is that Ameriflight pilots can now transition directly to United Airlines!
