A flight dispatcher plays a key role in airline operations by planning and monitoring the progress of flights. They work closely with pilots, air traffic controllers, and ground staff to prepare flight plans, taking into account weather conditions, aircraft performance, and airspace restrictions. Flight dispatchers are responsible for ensuring flights depart safely and on time, and they must react quickly to any changes or emergencies. The role requires strong communication, problem-solving, and organisational skills. Training is usually provided on the job, often supported by industry-specific courses such as those accredited by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
