T'way Air Introduces Training Center to Attendees of ICAO Asia-Pacific Regional Directors of Civil Aviation Meeting

International Aviation Officials Visit Training Center

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] T'way Air announced on the 11th that key aviation officials from the Asia-Pacific region attending the 57th ICAO Asia-Pacific Regional Aviation Directors General Meeting visited the T'way Air Aviation Training Center on the 8th as part of an industry inspection program during the event.

The 57th ICAO Asia-Pacific Regional Aviation Directors General Meeting, held from the 4th to the 8th of this month, is the highest policy meeting in the Asia-Pacific region where aviation directors from the region, along with international aviation organizations such as ICAO and EASA, discuss the implementation of ICAO policies and ways to strengthen mutual cooperation within the region.

On the last day of the meeting, the afternoon of the 8th, as part of the industry inspection program, numerous officials visited the T'way Air Aviation Training Center located at Gimpo Airport. They toured various training facilities including the integrated control room, emergency evacuation practice rooms for A330 and B737 aircraft models, emergency equipment practice rooms, door trainers, fire suppression rooms, and service practice rooms.

In April, key aviation officials from around the world who participated in the 2022 ICAO International Aviation Law Conference also visited the training center and took part in hands-on experiences.

Opened in 2020, the T'way Air Aviation Training Center is equipped with the latest purpose-built training facilities related to safety and service. The T'way Air cabin crew training instructors conducting the training hold professional instructor qualifications in first aid, aviation security, dangerous goods, and CRM (Crew Resource Management).

In November of last year, T'way Air became the first domestic low-cost carrier to receive approval as an Aviation Training Organization (ATO) from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. The center was certified for excellence in all aspects including training facilities, training courses, training managers, and instructors, and has conducted commissioned training for cabin crew of other airlines. Additionally, the center continues to operate the ‘Crew Class’ program to support the dreams and passion of students majoring in aviation-related fields, providing cabin crew safety and service experiences, which has garnered significant participation and positive responses from many students.

A T'way Air official stated, “It was a meaningful event to introduce our excellent training center facilities to global aviation officials,” and added, “We will continue to operate cabin crew experience programs and social contribution activities utilizing the facilities.”
