Course Overview

This EDTO (Extended Diversion Time Operations) training is designed to demonstrate how extended-range flights are planned and operated in real airline environments. Participants will be shown how airlines conduct risk assessments, apply operational decision-making, and manage abnormal or emergency situations during extended diversion operations.

During the program, we will show how EDTO routes are identified, how diversion times and Equal Time Points (ETP) are calculated, and how suitable EDTO alternate airports are selected based on regulatory and operational requirements.

The training will also cover practical fuel planning for EDTO operations, including critical fuel scenarios, weather evaluation, wind impact, and aircraft performance considerations.

The course emphasizes practical demonstration and real-world operational logic to help participants clearly understand how EDTO is applied in long-haul and oceanic flight operations.

Requirements

• 10+2 / Graduation (Preferred)
• Excellent Communication Skills
• Age Group -18-27 Years

Certification

◉ Certification (or award, credential, license, diploma, degree, etc.) follows the process of assessment and is a record that the individual’s competency has been validated.
