Baghdad, Iraq – Egnatia Aviation was privileged to be the conductor of Iraq‘s first ever aviation event, which attracted over 600 participants from across the industry. The four-hour event was attended by airport authorities, air traffic control (ATC) and university Deans, making it a cornerstone in promoting collaboration and innovation in Iraqi aviation.

A particularly inspiring moment was the presentation by Iraqi Airways pilots, graduates of Egnatia Aviation, who shared their journey from cadet pilots to professionals flying for the national carrier. Their journeys are a testament to the quality and impact of Egnatia Aviation’s world-class training programmes.

As part of this landmark event, Egnatia Aviation hosted an Open Day in Baghdad on 24 November, which was a great success. This interactive event offered aspiring pilots and aviation professionals a unique opportunity to explore their career potential and interact with the team.
