Accelerated Airline Pilot Training Program (from zero time)
Published as an average. Your real cost rises if you fly more than the average hours.
UND Aerospace Phoenix adjusts its rates each August and applies monthly fuel surcharges, and says actual cost "may vary from student to student according to their capability." It publishes per-course rates rather than a flat overage rate; a 10% admin/technology fee applies to sponsored cohorts.
The academy's own published price. It does not reduce the 1,500-hour airline minimum (only a qualifying degree does). Prices change. Confirm current figures with UND Aerospace Phoenix.

Compare the pathsFigures are UND Aerospace Phoenix's own published program prices, shown with the date we read them. They are not a personalized quote, and a student's actual cost will differ with location premiums, the fees the sticker excludes, and pace. Published prices generally assume the program's planned hours; flight training often runs over the FAA minimums, and how extra hours are billed varies by academy (some hold a truly fixed cost, others charge an hourly rate for additional time). Confirm the overage policy with the academy. An accelerated academy does not lower the 1,500-hour airline minimum; only a qualifying degree does, under 14 CFR 61.160.
