Career Progression
Welcome to Republic
Republic Airways is not a transportation company. We’re a tech company that has airplanes, operating with safety as our core value for Republic’s almost 50-year legacy. This transformational approach to doing business has allowed us to vault to the top of our industry and continue to innovate by building our new Aviation Campus. Our pioneering Aviation Campus in Carmel, Indiana is home to our industry-leading Training Center and 276-room high-end hotel, exclusively for our Associates to utilize. The Training Center uses state-of-the-art flight simulation technology, including eight full-motion and eight motionless trainers as well as cutting-edge, in-person instructional classrooms and virtual training classrooms. These advanced capabilities give Republic’s all in-house instructors the ability to tailor their curriculum to each course in ways that were previously technically infeasible. We put our people first, and we hope that this new campus showcases our deep commitment not just to our people, but to the entire state of Indiana.
