Emirates airline will soon build a 5,882-square-meter advanced training centre for pilots worth $135 million.

This step comes as the flag carrier ramps up operations to meet strong air travel demand.

The training unit is expected to open in March 2024, the company said today, February 20th.

"This $135 million investment to build a new pilot training centre will ensure Emirates' readiness to commence its pilot training ahead of the delivery of its new aircraft fleet starting from 2024," said Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed, chairman and CEO of Emirates airline and Group.

The centre will be equipped with the latest technologically advanced simulators, he added. It will take in six full-flight simulator bays for Airbus A350 and Boeing 777X aircraft.

Emirates is now poised to boost its pilot training capacity by 54 percent a year.
