CPL Flight Schools in France
EASA-approved schools offering Commercial Pilot Licence training across France.
The Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) is the qualification that lets you be paid to fly. Aviatr lists 43 EASA-approved ATOs in France offering CPL(A) training, usually as part of a modular path that builds on your PPL and hour-building towards the airline-ready 'frozen ATPL'. Compare schools below on fleet, multi-engine availability and integrated-vs-modular structure.
Typical cost
A modular CPL course alone runs roughly €8,000–20,000, but the full commercial pathway (PPL, hour-building, IR, CPL and ATPL theory) typically totals €50,000–80,000 modular. Multi-engine and complex aircraft time drive the cost.
How long it takes
From zero to CPL takes 18–24 months on a focused modular plan, or as part of an 18-month integrated programme. The CPL course itself is around 25 hours of flight training once prerequisites are met.
