Safe Air Academy – Leading Aviation Flight Academy in Kenya

Beyond the Cockpit, Behind Every Flight

SafeAir Aviation Training College (SAATC), trading as Safe Air Academy, is a premium non-flying aviation training institution established to develop competent, safety-driven, and industry-ready aviation professionals.

The Academy is founded on real airline and maintenance experience and is designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and live aviation operations. Our programs combine technical training, safety culture, operational exposure, and workforce readiness in line with global aviation best practice.

Affiliation With Safe Air Company

Safe Air Academy is affiliated with Safe Air Company, an established Airline and Aircraft Maintenance Organization (MRO) with over 20 years of operational experience.

Through this affiliation, students benefit from:

Exposure to a live Air Operator Certificate (AOC) environment
Airline operations at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA)
Aircraft maintenance activities within the Safe Air MRO hangar at JKIA

This integration ensures training is grounded in real-world aviation practice, not theory alone.
