A Flight Simulator Experience is a flying experience that is - almost - completely free of boundaries (except for the fact that you're still on solid ground when it happens!) But with a selection of planes, locations, even routes to choose from, the possibilities are endless, and with our most flexible Flight Simulator experience gift voucher, you get the flexibility to choose where and when you go on your flight simulator. Maybe you're a bit of a military aviation buff and are drawn to iconic WWII planes like the Spitfire or Hurricane Hawker? Perhaps you've got designs on piloting a commercial airliner like a Boeing 737? Whatever your preference, there's a good chance it's in the fleet selections available. And the magic of a flight simulator is that you can fly just about anywhere in the world, thanks to the high quality visuals that are used! Your session hosts will offer you 1:1 teaching inside the cockpit that's tailored to your requirements, which will make this experience feel really personal, the stuff of bucket lists if you will, whether it's flying in challenging weather conditions, performing an expert landing, or flying a full sector from push back to the stand. Just take a look at the locations where simulator centres are based across the UK, and prepare to enjoy the flight of a lifetime!
