After you board our aircraft and move past the forward galley, a fully functional first class cabin that seats 8 people awaits, with working window views, industry leading vibration technology, and working passenger service units above your head (including the pressurised air, which is a world first!) allows everyone to be part of the experience not just the recipient. So you can sit back, relax, listen to your friend or family make their announcement to their passengers and prepare yourselves for takeoff.
The recipient will also receive a video on USB stick to take home to show all their friends and family that couldn't make it on the day too.


You'll not find an experience quite like this anywhere else!
All direct bookings will receive a free first class gift pack

60 Minute Flight Simulator Experience

£139.00 £89.50

Our most popular choice. A special gift for the discerning aviation enthusiast or the gateway to a future career.....This flight will tick all the boxes!


The experience

After arriving at our simulator school, one of our highly experienced instructors will give you a safety briefing and discuss the basics of flying our Boeing 737 flight deck.

We will ask you which of the 24,000 airports in the world that can serve the Boeing 737 you would like to fly from (so get thinking!)

Once boarded onto the aircraft, you will take your seat in the Captain's chair to the left and your instructor will assume the role of your First officer on the right. There is room for up to three spectators to watch from the back of the flight deck.

Time to take off and it's straight over to you! With the instructor's guidance, you will fly over 70 tonnes of metal, jet fuel and passengers into the sky!

Typically in 60 minutes there are a few options on what you can achieve. Here at Jet Sim School, we firmly believe in letting you be the boss of your flight!


Options to consider;


  • Choose more than one airport
  • Ask for some different weather (turbulence is optional!)
  • Fly one of our hour-long airport hopper routes from our flight menu
  • Fly a Cat 3A approach
  • Try your hand at taxying
  • Accept an in-flight emergency challenge from the instructor (Don't trust them!)


Who is this good for?

  • Aspiring pilots wanting their first taste of control

30 Minute Flight Simulator Experience

£99.00 £59.50

Whether as a gift for someone special, or a personal treat, this 30 minute flying experience in our fully functional Boeing 737-800 flight deck will see the participant take to the Captain's seat!

The experience

After arriving at our simulator school, one of our highly experienced instructors will give you a safety briefing and discuss the basics of flying our Boeing 737 flight deck.

We will ask you which airport you would like to fly around (it is best to stay local to one field on a short flight to get the most out of the flying). There are over 24,000 airports in the world that can serve the Boeing 737 so get thinking of which one you would like to fly from!

Once boarded onto the aircraft, you will take your seat in the Captain's chair to the left and your instructor will assume the role of your First officer on the right. There is room for up to three spectators to watch from the back of the flight deck.

Time to take off and it's straight over to you! With the instructor's guidance, you will fly over 70 tonnes of metal, jet fuel and passengers into the sky!

Typically in a 30 minute flight, there is time for take off, climbing to a safe height to get a feel of the controls and a spot of sight seeing, then we return to the airport for a touch 'n' go then a final landing. There may even be time to try your hand at taxying the aircraft from the runway! - Don't be fooled, this can be harder than flying!


Who is this good for?

  • Gifts for family and friends
  • Aspiring pilots wanting their first taste of control
  • Home sim pilots wanting to try a full flight deck
  • Travelers who want an insight of what's going on up front

Can anybody fly the plane?

£99.00 £65.00

*bing bong* ​"Ladies and Gentlemen, there has been an incident in the cockpit..... so......errrr.....well.....can anybody fly the plane?"


Are you the hero to save the day? Have you got what it takes to safely pilot an airliner with over 170 lives on board with only some guidance over the radio? Can YOU land the plane when it really matters?


You'll be escorted into the flight deck, and then, on your own with only a voice on your headset, a pilot will try and talk you down. You'll find the aircraft cruising along at a mere 500mph at 38,000 feet, the rest is down to you! What could possibly go wrong?


What to expect:

  • Following a safety and basic control operation briefing in our comfortable ready room, you'll be escorted into the simulator for your moment of glory!
  • Once you are seated you will be given a headset, this is what you will use to talk to the pilot who will talk you down. This is when your flight time at the controls, 30 minutes, begins.
  • Within 30 minutes you should be safely back on the ground.... if you make it...all you need to do is listen!
  • Competition time – Think you can do better than your family or friends, maybe even better than your mates at work? Get 20% off for booking multiple sessions, the best approach and landing gets the bragging rights!


Optional Extra:

  • Share how good (or bad) you did with a multi angle/display film of your flight to take away on a USB stick for only £20. You can pay on the day or add it to the shopping cart now.


Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: What happens if I crash really quick? Do I lose my time? – No, we can reset the flight at various stages giving you multiple attempts at getting on the ground safely. You'll get the full 30 minutes to try and make it! We are all counting on you in the back!

Q: I have zero flying experience – No problem, if you listen, you can make it safely on the ground!

Q: How do I know if I've crashed – Don't worry, you'll know!

Q: Can I share the experience? – Feel free to bring a couple of people along with you on the day, they'll be able to hear everything the pilot is telling you, and see you sweat from the comfort of the ready room!


THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY FUN, CHALLENGING AND DRAMATIC EXPERIENCE! BOOK NOW!
