CCA EU

What is an Attestation?

​

If you wish to work as Cabin Crew in commercial air transport within a Member State of the European Community, you must hold a valid Cabin Crew Attestation (CCA). This is a certificate of professional competency which permits you to discharge the duties of Cabin Crew on European Community registered aircraft (source UK CAA). To obtain the CCA you need to attend a training course that is delivered by an organisation approved by a European National Aviation Authority

​

 

Why should I get an Attestation?

​

EASA Regulations require each cabin crew member must undergo initial training and hold an attestation of that training. Corporate Flight Training is a Transport Malta Civil Aviation Directorate (TM CAD) approved Cabin Crew Training Organisation (CCTO 008) and we are approved to deliver the required training and issue the Cabin Crew Attestation.

​

Many airlines look to hire candidates who are in possession of a valid Attestation of Cabin Crew. This means the company training time is cut down as the airline is only required to conduct an operator conversion/aircraft type training.  Holding an Attestation of Cabin Crew also demonstrates you have reached the required standards of training, have gained the required knowledge and your commitment.  It gives candidates excellent cabin crew employment prospects and makes you much more employable than candidates without the Attestation.   

​

For corporate aircraft operators of 19 seats or less, by employing Flight Attendants who hold an EASA Cabin Crew Attestation the operator can utilise them as Cabin Crew who are able to participate in safety related duties.

​

The EASA Cabin Crew Attestation is valid for all European airlines and operators.

​

Who is the course for?

​

There are two options for training based upon the level of candidate experience.  We deliver two monthly Attestation of Cabin Crew courses.

​

Six Day CCA Course – this is suitable for all candidate levels, new to aviation and for those with prior cabin crew experience.

​

Five Day Accelerated CCA Course – this course is suitable for candidates who have been cabin crew previously, are returning from airlines based in the Middle East  or outside an EU Member state and for corporate/business aviation and VVIP flight attendants.
