Buy Flight Vouchers for Christmas

Christmas is almost on us and, if you’re like many people, you’ve still got a few presents to buy and your stress levels are inching up as time runs out. So don’t be like everyone else, get a present that’s unique and very distinctive: buy a Flight Experience voucher.

You can call us on 03 9650 0737 or visit us at our simulator in Melbourne city. Vouchers are available for all our Flight Packages, allowing you to tailor your spend to match your funds available.

If you order your voucher before 10:30am, we can give you same day delivery if you want. You’d better get in quick, though, as Christmas is certainly not far away now.

Helping QANTAS pilots share the experience

Have you ever wanted to take your family up to the cockpit and show them what it’s like? Believe it or not, many airline pilots want to do the same thing but cannot.

Due to the many security measures introduced over the past few years, pilots are unable to take their family members into “the office” so they can experience flying a commercial jet airliner.

Best time to view our Flight Simulator

Take a peek at our cockpit

Take a peek at our cockpit

Many people are interested in just seeing what the inside of a 737 cockpit looks like. Some want to check out our simulator before they commit to buying one of our Flight Packages.

If you’re in the city and want to have a look at our simulator, the best time to drop by is between 2pm and 3pm every day. This is when our instructors take their lunch breaks, so the simulator is generally not being used and one instructor is always on hand to let you have a look inside.

While visiting the simulator, you can also check out our wide range of merchandise available, including clothing, books, aircraft models and cockpit DVDs.

Your worst flight experience could win a ride in our simulator

Is your luggage in here?

Is your luggage in here?

If you’ve ever flown on an airliner, there’s a good chance that you’ve had at least one flight that didn’t go well, the kind of flight that leaves you wishing you’d stayed home or caught the train instead. Some of us are unfortunate enough to have had many of them. From tarmac strandings to lost luggage, from screaming kids to lousy service, these are the nightmares that haunt you after you’ve finally arrived at your destination.

Father’s Day with Flight Experience

Fathers Day Flight Experience

Father's Day Flight Experience

Choosing the perfect present for your Dad is usually a draining and tedious task. Often we opt for that dreary tie, tacky mug or unexciting shirt. This year why not give your Dad a chance to fly from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon?

Impossible you say? No way! Flight Experience Melbourne is offering its customers a special Father’s Day Package that will give that special someone the opportunity to be the captain of a 737-800 flight simulator that is about as close as it gets to the real thing.
