Husbands Bosworth Airfield

Husbands Bosworth Airfield in Leicestershire was opened in 1943 operating as a RAF base, although the airfield's life as an RAF base was short lived as in 1946 it was decommissioned after it was no longer needed due war ending. Today the airfield is being used by the Gliding Centre and has been since 1965 and the East Midlands Air Support Unit since 1996. There is also a National Police Air Service that has a helicopter based there to serve the midlands and East Anglia. The airport also hosts Gliding Experiences which are available through our website.

Terms and Conditions for Husbands Bosworth Airfield

Once you order a voucher, it will be dispatched by one of our agency partners by e-voucher or by post, depending on which you choose when you checkout.

Vouchers are valid until the expiry date shown on your Voucher (typically 10-12 months).

In most cases, once you activate your voucher you will be sent the instructions to redeem the voucher directly with the airfield or operator. Because flying experiences (other than simulators) can only take place in suitable/ safe weather conditions, you must be prepared to be flexible on your activity date. If the agent or operator cancels your experience date, they will inform you as soon as possible and do their very best to offer an alternative date or location. Once a specific date has been booked, you will automatically become bound by the terms and conditions that the individual operator may have. This does not affect your statutory rights.

Whilst every effort is made to ensure the descriptions contained on our products are a true reflection of the experience, these do not form part of a contract. If on contacting the operator you feel that the activity taking place no longer accurately represents the activity purchased, the relevant agent will exchange the voucher or refund the purchase price.
