Flying Lessons and Experiences in Wales
Wales is the ideal location for a perfect flying experience. It offers an array of stunning scenery to enjoy from the air, including mountains, deep valleys, rugged coastlines, breath-taking beaches, historic sites, picturesque villages, wild forests and waterfalls…the list goes on and on!
And we're confident that whether you're visiting Wales or you're a local with a taste for all things airborne, we've got a flying lesson or experience with your name on it for you to enjoy and create some very special - and yes, lush - memories from. Read on to discover just what we have on offer for you…
Learning to Fly a Plane in Wales
What springs to mind when you think of Wales? The beautiful National Parks of the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia? Majestic mountains and sweeping valleys? There are few better ways to explore these stunning corners of the country than from many thousands of feet up in the air.
In fact, if you've always had an itching ambition to learn how to fly a fixed wing aircraft like an aeroplane for yourself, then our variety of Aeroplane Flying Lesson packages are just what you may be looking for.
Under the guidance of a CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) qualified instructor, you'll get the opportunity to learn and master, over a 30 or 60 minute lesson, the basics of piloting and taking the controls on a two-seater aeroplane.
Best of all, however long your lesson is that you choose, it also counts towards the experience needed to obtain your Private Pilot's Licence, so who knows? It could well be investment in a promising future aviation hobby or career.
Or for those looking for something more to ignite the daredevil in you, our Skydiving Experiences, which will see you freefall from heights of up to 2,000 ft and descend to the ground in a parachute either in a Tandem or Static Line, will certainly satisfy those with a taste for flying experiences that are not for the faint hearted!
Helicopter Rides Wales
With the ability to fly and land just about anywhere - whether it's the golden sands of the beaches of Swansea, or up over the most northerly point of Wales in Anglesey, our selection of Helicopter Rides offer endless possibilities for your next flying day.
A helicopter experience is a great way to take some striking photographs of the Welsh landscape. Few other parts of the UK can match the diversity of majestic backdrops that Wales has to offer. To do it justice, we are proud to offer a range of helicopter experiences from various locations which fly over a wide selection of settings.
Some of our Helicopter Rides are also available for two to enjoy and 'cwtch up' on. Whether it’s a romantic 6 mile Blue Skies Helicopter Flight for Valentine's Day or a special anniversary, or maybe a 12 Mile Themed Helicopter Flight for a milestone Birthday surprise, there are many wonderful memories to be created and shared.
Where Can I Go on a Flying Day or Experience from in Wales?
It will come as no surprise to tell you that two of our most popular venues for flying days and experiences are in good proximity to Wales' two foremost cities - its capital, Cardiff Airport, and also Swansea Airport. The latter's airport is also well located with access to the stunning Gower Park, a recognised Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Further north in the country, there's the opportunity to get airborne over the Snowdonia National Park, with a range of exciting flying lessons available at Caernarfon Airport, which is also home to the Airworld Aviation Museum, whilst nestled in Pembrokeshire is the former RAF World War II base of Haverfordwest Airport.
Booking Your Flying Lesson or Experience in Wales
We're committed to making booking your next flying day or lesson in Wales as easy as possible. Our open gift vouchers make the perfect gift idea to surprise a loved one with or just treat yourself, as well as more flexibility for when and where you take to the skies.
But if there's a forthcoming date you've got in mind, that’s absolutely fine too - we're in regular communication with our suppliers and venues, so you can access and book directly onto any future available date you see for any of our experiences, using our regularly updated Events calendars.
Terms and Conditions for Flying Experiences in Wales
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.
