For the Training Coordinator at Avion Express, Paulius Normantas, the fascination with aviation began early. A childhood dream took flight during his first plane journey with a vision of becoming a flight attendant. Yet, by the time he graduated from high school, Paulius’ goals had changed, and he set his sights on aviation management. Paulius enrolled in Kazimieras Simonavicius University’s program, focused on this area, and applied for an internship at Avia Solutions Group after the first year of studies. And the rest is history.
