Trained with Wizz Air cabin crew for a day - there is a lot passengers don't know'
Trained with Wizz Air cabin crew for a day - there is a lot passengers don't know' details how Wizz Air’s nearly all cabin crew training takes place at a specialized facility on the outskirts of Budapest. The 3,800-square-metre center opened in 2018 with a stated cost of €30 million (£25.8 million) and is designed to handle up to 300 trainees at full capacity. It includes two full-flight simulators and a cabin training setup, covering classroom and ground instruction as well as flight and cabin simulation exercises. During a behind-the-scenes tour, led by Wizz Air UK Senior First Officer Thomas Copestake and Cabin Crew Instructor Gabriel Randone, the reporter tried elements including opening emergency and main doors on a mock aircraft and testing evacuation slide procedures. The article also describes a flight simulation with a replica Milan airport and discusses safety demonstrations and evacuation speed. Copestake highlights the view from flights over the Alps and the privilege of seeing terrain few people have walked on, urging passengers to look out of the window on future trips.
