Promotional Incentive
Rules and Terms & Conditions

1. Program Overview. The Coast Flight Training Pilot Transfer Program (the “Program” or “PTP”) is a free promotional incentive program that enables eligible transfer students to earn training credits toward the cost of completing FAA pilot certificates and ratings at Coast Flight Training and Management, Inc. (“Coast”). These Rules and Terms & Conditions (“Program Rules”), together with any documents they reference, govern participation in the Program and constitute the entire understanding between you and Coast regarding the Program.

2. Eligibility. The Program is open only to students who (a) are actively pursuing flight training, (b) hold a current, valid FAA pilot certificate, and (c) are accepted into the Program by Coast under Section 3. Participation is personal to the accepted student and may not be transferred to anyone else.

3. Screening and Acceptance. To be considered, you must submit your training records, logbook entries, and any additional documentation Coast reasonably requests, and you must complete Coast’s screening process, which consists of a screening call, a complimentary two-hour training event that includes a flight with a Coast instructor, and a records review. If you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, you must also complete all Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Alien Flight Student Program (AFSP) vetting and receive TSA approval before beginning any flight training at Coast; Coast cannot accept you into the Program until TSA approval is confirmed. Acceptance into the Program is effective only when confirmed by Coast in writing. Coast may decline any applicant who does not meet Coast’s safety, proficiency, training, or operational standards.

4. The Complimentary Training Event; Liability Waiver. The complimentary two-hour training event is part of the screening process and is provided at no charge. It is not a cash credit, has no cash value, and is not redeemable or exchangeable for cash. Its reference value of “up to $570” is only an estimate of the comparable retail cost of similar instruction; the actual value you receive may be less. Completing the event does not guarantee acceptance into the Program or the award of any credit. Before participating in the training event, you must sign Coast’s standard liability waiver and release, which covers all flight activities during the screening process. You will not be permitted to participate in the training event until the waiver is signed.

5. Training Credit Schedule. Subject to these Rules, an accepted participant may earn the following credit upon successfully completing the corresponding certificate or rating at Coast:

Private Pilot License (PPL): $900*

Instrument Rating (IFR): $750

Commercial Single-Engine (CSEL): $850

Certified Flight Instructor (CFI): $350**

Certified Flight Instructor – Instrument (CFII): $250

Commercial Multi-Engine (CMEL): $500**

Multi-Engine Instructor (MEI): $400**

* The PPL credit requires a minimum of 30 aircraft flight hours completed at Coast and applied toward the Private Pilot License.

** Credits for the CFI, CMEL, and MEI ratings are subject to additional eligibility requirements and limited availability, as described in Section 8.

6. Maximum Credit; No Guaranteed Amount. The maximum transfer credit available under the Program is $4,000 in total, which can be reached only by a participant who completes every eligible rating listed above at Coast and meets all applicable conditions. Most participants will earn less than the maximum, and many will earn credit for only one or a few ratings. The $570 reference value of the complimentary training event is not a credit, is not part of the $4,000 maximum, and is not additive to it. Coast does not represent or guarantee that any participant will earn any specific amount of credit.

7. How Credits Are Earned and Applied; No Refund Rights. Each credit is earned only upon your successful completion of the applicable rating at Coast. Except for the PPL credit, credit is available only for ratings that are both begun and completed at Coast. Each credit is tied to the specific rating completed, is non-transferable, has no cash value, and is not redeemable or refundable for cash. Credits may be applied only against your outstanding account balance or future flight-training charges at Coast. Tuition vs. Credit Distinction: Program credits are promotional incentives provided at no separate charge—they are not prepaid tuition, are not funded by any payment you make, and do not constitute consideration paid by you. Coast will not record or apply a Program credit to your student account as tuition paid or prepaid instruction while a course is in progress; credits will be applied only as a discount against charges for a future rating or against your final balance after you complete a rating. This distinction is intended to ensure that Program credits are treated separately from tuition you have actually paid for purposes of any refund calculation. Refund-Subordination Clause: These Program Rules, including all non-refundable, no-cash-value, and credit-forfeiture terms, are expressly subordinate to any non-waivable refund, cancellation, or withdrawal rights you may have under applicable state vocational, career, or private postsecondary school laws and regulations (including, without limitation, California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education regulations and Texas Workforce Commission career-school rules). If you withdraw or cancel your enrollment and are entitled to a refund under any such law, your refund will be calculated based on the tuition and fees you actually paid—not on any Program credits. Coast’s enrollment agreement, school catalog, and applicable state refund policy govern the refund calculation; these Program Rules do not reduce, limit, or waive any such rights. If any term of these Program Rules conflicts with a non-waivable statutory refund right, the statutory right controls and the conflicting term is unenforceable to that extent.

8. Limited Ratings (CFI, CMEL, and MEI). Credits for the CFI, CMEL, and MEI ratings have limited availability and are subject to additional eligibility, scheduling, and operational requirements. These credits are not guaranteed and may be unavailable when you seek to earn them. Do not enroll in the Program in reliance on these credits without first obtaining written confirmation of your eligibility from Coast.

9. Combining Offers. Credits may not be combined with any other promotional offer, discount, or scholarship unless Coast approves the combination in advance in writing.

10. Participant Representations. By applying for and participating in the Program, you represent and warrant that: (a) your participation will not violate or cause you to breach any agreement, contract, or commitment you have with any other flight school, training provider, or third party; (b) you are solely responsible for any obligations you may have to any prior or current flight school, including tuition, fees, or contractual commitments; (c) Coast has not induced or encouraged you to breach any such agreement; and (d) all information you provide to Coast in connection with your application is true, accurate, and complete. Coast is not responsible for any dispute between you and any other flight school arising from your decision to transfer.

11. Nondiscrimination. Coast administers the Program without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law. Eligibility and acceptance decisions are based solely on the applicant’s qualifications, training records, and ability to meet Coast’s safety, proficiency, and operational standards. Coast will provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities in accordance with applicable law.

12. Privacy and Use of Records. Coast collects training records, logbook entries, and other documentation you submit solely to evaluate your eligibility for the Program and to administer your participation. Coast will not sell your personal information or use it for purposes unrelated to the Program and your flight training without your consent. Coast maintains reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information you provide. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting Coast at the address in Section 17, subject to Coast’s recordkeeping obligations under FAA regulations and applicable law. For more information about Coast’s privacy practices, please refer to Coast’s Privacy Policy available at iflycoast.com.

13. VA and Federal Student Aid Participants. Coast participates in U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) education benefit programs and in federal student financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act. If you are receiving or plan to receive VA education benefits or Title IV federal student aid for your flight training at Coast, you should be aware that: (a) the Program credits are promotional incentives and are not funded by, and do not affect the calculation of, your VA or Title IV benefits; (b) Program credits may not be used to satisfy any portion of your expected family contribution or out-of-pocket costs that must be paid before federal aid is applied; (c) your eligibility for and the amount of VA or Title IV benefits are determined solely under applicable federal law and regulations, not these Program Rules; and (d) Coast’s administration of the Program is separate from, and does not influence, Coast’s certification of your enrollment or satisfactory academic progress for VA or Title IV purposes. If you have questions about the interaction between Program credits and your VA or federal aid, please contact Coast’s financial aid office before enrolling.

14. Credit Validity. Unless a different period is required by applicable law, each earned credit must be applied within twelve (12) months after the date it is earned and will expire if not used within that period. Credits are provided as a promotional incentive and are not purchased by the participant.

15. Program Availability, Changes, and Termination. The enrollment offer is valid through September 18, 2026. All flight training remains subject to aircraft and instructor availability, weather, FAA regulations, and Coast’s policies. Coast may modify, suspend, or terminate the Program or amend these Rules at any time; however, credits already earned by an accepted participant before the effective date of any change will be honored on the terms in effect when the credit was earned.

16. General. These Rules are governed by the laws of the state in which your Coast training location operates, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and do not limit any non-waivable rights you may have under the consumer-protection laws of your state or any non-waivable rights under applicable vocational or career school regulations. If any provision of these Rules is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force. Coast’s failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision.
