Accommodation
If you choose to train with Global Aviation, you will benefit from Greece's excellent weather conditions, preventing any delays in your flight training. You will also have the chance to visit some of the greatest cities in Europe.
Global Aviation operates its flight training from two flight training bases. The first flight training base is located at Pachi Megara Civil Aviation Airport (LGMG), one of the main general aviation airports serving the Athens area. In addition, flight training operations are also conducted from the newly constructed GA Ikaros Private Airport, located in the Kopaida area, north of Athens.
Our Ground School Base is located in Athens, providing students with convenient access to the city and its facilities. Athens is well connected to most European and Middle Eastern capitals through frequent and daily international flights.
Global Aviation assists its students in finding suitable accommodation in Athens throughout their training. We collaborate with real estate agents, private homeowners and specialised student housing companies that provide a range of accommodation options to meet the needs of our students.
Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. Athens dominates the Attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning around 3,400 years, and the earliest human presence started somewhere between the 11th and 7th millennium BC. Athens is recognized as a global city because of its geo-strategic location and its importance in shipping, finance, commerce, media, entertainment, arts, international trade, culture, education and tourism. It is one of the biggest economic centers in southeastern Europe, with a large financial sector, and its port Piraeus is the largest passenger port in Europe, and the second largest in the world. Athens is also the southernmost capital on the European mainland.
Megara is a historic town and a municipality in West Attica, Greece. Megara is located in the westernmost part of Attica, near the Megara Gulf, a bay of the Saronic Gulf. Megara is 8 km west of Nea Peramos, 18 km west of Eleusis, 34 km west of Athens and 37 km east of Corinth. The Motorway 8 connects it with Athens and Corinth. The Megara railway station is served by Proastiakos suburban trains to Athens and Kiato.
Kopaida is a historic region in Central Greece, located in the wider area of Boeotia, approximately 100 km northwest of Athens. Known for its vast open plains and surrounding mountainous landscape, the area offers a spacious and low-density environment well suited to aviation activities. Kopaida is easily accessible from Athens and nearby towns such as Thebes and Livadeia, while its location away from the urban centre provides an ideal setting for flight training. The newly constructed GA Ikaros Private Airport is located in the Kopaida area and serves as an additional flight training base for Global Aviation.
