What Ocean Aviation Flight Academy costs in Delaware

Common questions about Ocean Aviation Flight Academy

How much does Ocean Aviation Flight Academy cost?

Ocean Aviation Flight Academy publishes $92,995 for its Airline Pilot Professional Pilot Program (from zero time), as listed on the academy's own pricing page (July 2026). That is the published sticker for the program, not a personalized quote, and it is what the academy asks before the fees the sticker excludes.

What is included in Ocean Aviation Flight Academy's program price?

Ocean Aviation Flight Academy's published programs cover Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, Commercial Pilot and Flight Instructor. The academy states about 12 months to finish. On what it excludes, the academy states: Published starting price described as an example accelerated outcome: about 12 months to the Commercial certificate and CFI, then a paid instructor internship (the school cites averaging about 700 hours per year) toward the 1,500-hour airline minimum. Inclusions are not itemized.

What happens if you need more hours than Ocean Aviation Flight Academy's program includes?

The academy does not publish how hours beyond the estimate are billed. Confirm before enrolling. Ocean Aviation frames the published figure as an example of what an accelerated student might experience, not a guarantee, and does not itemize inclusions or state how hours beyond the plan are billed. Confirm both before enrolling. This is the question worth asking hardest at any accelerated academy, because the published price and the price a student who flies over the plan actually pays are two different numbers.

Does going to Ocean Aviation Flight Academy lower the 1,500-hour airline requirement?

No. An accelerated academy does not reduce the 1,500-hour ATP minimum. Only a qualifying aviation degree does, under 14 CFR 61.160, which lowers it to 1,000 hours for a bachelor's or 1,250 for an associate's. What an academy sells is speed and a fixed price to the commercial certificate and instructor ratings, not a shortcut to the airlines. Most graduates then instruct to build the remaining hours.

Where does Ocean Aviation Flight Academy train in Delaware?

Ocean Aviation Flight Academy lists one campus in Delaware: Georgetown. The published program price is national and does not change by campus, though living costs do.
