The different types of flights offered by Wingly
Wingly is first and foremost an experience platform rather than a commercial airline. You will therefore find more round flights, day flights and weekend trips than cross-country flights.
- Sightseeing flights
Aerial tours flights are circular flights that allow you to discover the region of your choice from a new angle. Here are the features of this option:
- Departure and return : From the same aerodrome.
- Flight duration: Varies according to the pilot's itinerary (generally 30 min, 45 min, 1h, or 2h).
- Customization: If you have a specific itinerary in mind, please contact the pilot before booking → How do I contact a pilot ?
- Excursions
Excursions are round-trip flights including a stopover in the destination city for a break and exploration. This option allows you to :
- Fly over a region and visit the city: A stop is planned to allow you to discover the destination city.
- Return flight: You then take your return flight to the same departure aerodrome.
- One-way flights
These flights simply take you from one city to another, just like a normal commercial flight. However, this only includes the outward flight, not the return.
- Wingly Pro
Wingly Pro flights offer additional experiences, similar to aerial rides, but operated by Wingly business partners.
- Flying by plane or helicopter
Although most flights are performed with light aircraft, some pilots also offer helicopter flights. To find these experiences, you can filter your search by aircraft type, after choosing your departure city.
As Wingly pilots fly with small aircrafts, it may sometimes be possible that a flight has to be postponed due to bad weather conditions. Wingly flights are therefore not suitable as an alternative to scheduled flights operated by commercial airlines.
