The nearly 50,000-square-foot facility next to Salt Lake City International Airport is Delta’s latest investment in Utah.
Launched in 2018, Delta’s Propel Pilot Career Path program identifies, selects and develops the next generation of pilots. The largest-ever class just joined the Propel Company Path, diversifying the pilot population and contributing to the steady pipeline of talented pilots.
Delta’s Propel program officially opened the Propel Flight Academy on Tuesday in Vero Beach, Florida. There, in partnership with Skyborne Aviation, aspiring pilots can enroll in a formal flight training program that from day one maps out a course to a job as a Delta pilot. Students can receive up to $20,000 in financial support.
Located next to Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), this 47,000-square-foot facility marks the next chapter of Delta’s investment in its 5,400 employees and customers in Utah.
