Pilot Divisions and Programs

Philippine Airlines Virtual operates in three divisions and three programs.

  • The PAL Express Division - Caters most of the domestic flights around the Philippines. It is open to the rank of Cadet or higher.
  • The Philippine Airlines Division - Caters domestic and international flights to and from its hubs.
  • The PAL Historic Division - An exclusive division to the rank of Senior Captain and higher. It features historic flights that marked significant moments to the aviation history of the Philippines and Asia.
  • Airman Program - All full-fledged PRVA pilots are included in this program. They are able to enjoy and pursue flying with the airline. Ranks are imposed to maintain order and develop the pilot’s skill in flying the PRVA fleet. Awards are given to pilots who have shown dedication towards the airline.
  • Career Mode Program - The PRVA Career Mode Program aims to provide the most realistic airline pilot experience. Available once the Chief Captain rank hours are completed, pilots will work their way up the new Mabuhay ranks, each with their own aircraft available to fly one reached. To further add to the experience, pilots must take part in a certification flight for each plane they wish to fly and pilot’s are assigned routes to fly.
  • Training Program - PRVA pilots are a reflection of the VA as a whole, that’s why we must ensure that our pilots meet a certain level of standard. This is where the PRVA Training Program comes in. The program consists of items that pilots should be aware of when flying in the Expert Server. The PRVA TP will be conducted if a pilot were to fall short of the requirements to pass the Check-Ride Flight for a second time.

Philippine Airlines Virtual also communicates with other virtual airlines for possible codeshare agreements. As well as ensuring that all routes found in the database are updated to provide maximum realism to its pilots.

Our Fleet

Our fleet consists of 10 B777-300ER aircraft, 3 A350-900 aircraft, 15 A330-300 aircraft, 18 A321-200 aircraft, and the DC-10, MD-11, B747-200, and B747-400 aircraft which were retired many years ago.

Effective immediately, as of July 2 the Philippine Airlines Virtual board has decided to halt pilot recruitment until August 1. The virtual airline will be undergoing the restructuring process in the coming months furthermore we came up with a resolution to keep virtual airline operations at 50% in order to focus more on improving the VA and strengthening it’s capabilities.

The current pilots already within PRVA wouldn’t encounter any interruptions and they could still be able to log their flights, the website including the crew center would be still up and running during the restructuring process.

You could be assured that after the restructuring of virtual airline is completed we would re open pilot recruitment! For other further inquiries please don’t hesitate to send us a pm!

On behalf of Philippine Airlines Virtual, the heart of the Filipino! Mabuhay!
