Use Your 529 Plan for Flight Training at American Flyers

Investing in your aviation future has never been more accessible at American Flyers. We are committed to helping you navigate the financial aspects of your training so you can focus on becoming a skilled professional pilot starting with your private pilot license. 

Traditionally, 529 plans were tax-advantaged savings plans reserved for four-year universities and postsecondary tuition. In August 2025 legislative changes allowed 529 plans to now officially cover postsecondary credentialing education, which includes flight training. 

Your 529 plan can be used for all flight training offered at American Flyers, whether you are looking for:

  • FAA Part 141 Programs: Our academy-style or structured 1-1 training courses.
  • FAA Part 61 Programs: Personalized, 1-on-1 training designed around your schedule.
