Meet Rochelle Mara Lupena, a 30-year-old aspiring pilot currently training at OMNI Aviation. Before embarking on her pilot training journey, Rochelle had a fulfilling career as a flight attendant for five years. Influenced by her father's love for aviation, she developed an interest in aviation at a young age. She revealed that her dream of becoming a pilot started when she was a teenager.
Her exposure to the cockpit and flight operations during her stint as a flight attendant reignited her teenage dream. She initially hesitated to pursue pilot training due to her financial worries. Eventually, when she saved up enough money and with OMNI’s Flylite program, Rochelle found a flexible payment method for her flight training. Leaving behind her stable career as a flight attendant was undoubtedly a tough decision, but Rochelle's determination led her to take a bold step towards her dream.
It was through referrals from some trusted friends that she found OMNI. She believes that OMNI Aviation is “one of the best, if not the best, flight training program in the Philippines,” which offers quality training.
Now, she marches towards her ultimate goal of joining the airlines, this time to be a pilot commanding the aircraft. For aspiring pilots or individuals like Rochelle, may this serve as an inspiration and reminder that it's never too late to pursue your dreams.
