'Pan Am Thailand' Pilot Training Company to open in September
2014
'Pan Am Thailand' established in joint venture with ANA
HOLDINGS, NOK AIR and Assumption University
Capturing burgeoning demand for pilot training in Southeast
Asia
Operations due to commence in September 2014
TOKYO, AUGUST 8, 2014 - ANA HOLDINGS is pleased to announce that
Pan Am International Flight Training Center (Thailand) Limited -
'Pan Am Thailand' - will begin operating in September 2014. 'Pan Am
Thailand' will open with an A320 simulator, with plans to expand to
a total of four simulators - two A320s and two Boeing 737NGs - in
2015.
'Pan Am Thailand' builds on the success of ANA Holding's Pan Am
flight academy (USA) operations in North and South America, which
it acquired in August 2013, and will capitalize on the rapid growth
in demand for flight crew training in Southeast Asia as the
aviation market expands in this region. Approximately 230,000
pilots, 4.5 times more than current pilot numbers, are forecast to
be required by 2030 (Source: ICAO "Global and Regional 20-year
Forecasts").
The 'Pan Am Thailand' joint venture forms a strong partnership
between ANA HOLDINGS, NOK AIR, based at Thailand's Don Mueang
International Airport (Bangkok) which has a fleet of 16 Boeing
737-800 Next-Generation aircraft and operates 136 flights a day and
Assumption University, the Thai university which recently set up a
new flight training department for students with no flight
experience.
The expansion of ANA Holding's international flight academy
business forms part of the Group's broader strategy to grow
profitability through the expansion of its international flight
network and by diversifying into auxiliary airline industry
services, particularly into areas which provide access to the high
growth Asian market. ANA HOLDINGS intends to continue focusing
strategic investment on the expansion of aviation-related
businesses in Asia.
