If you’re searching for IndiGo Cadet Pilot Program fees in India, rest assured that we provide a comprehensive breakdown to help you plan your journey effectively. Our IndiGo Cadet Pilot Program fee structure is transparent and will not leave you struggling with last-minute surprises to arrange funds. The list of Price Inclusions is attached below. Our previous cadet pilots have experienced an average of 10% overshoot of flying hours by way of remedial training, but some student pilots have completed without a single hour of remedial training. This depends on the focus, motivation, and preparation of the cadet.
