Why should I gift a flying experience in Washington DC?

For us, there’s nothing better than that moment when you’re watching your loved one open their gift: the smile, the bright eyes, and the excited “thank you” that follows. These DC flying experiences take that moment to a whole other level. From the second they open their voucher to the moment they lift off the ground, it all builds into something unforgettable, something you can share and connect on. Just don't be surprised when they're still talking about your amazing gift five years from now.

What can my recipient expect during their experience?

It all starts with a simple check-in and a pre-flight briefing from a certified instructor or pilot. Then it’s time to buckle up, take off, and see Washington DC from a whole new perspective. Depending on the experience, they could be flying in a historic biplane, gliding in a seaplane, or floating above it all in a hot air balloon. No matter what, they'll always be guided by a professional from start to finish.
