Booked my son in for a birthday surprise for the 737 Simulator! What an amazing experience, it was way more then we could have expected! My son really enjoyed it and is so excited to go again! Michael was so patient and kind with my son and made the experience so lovely and calm! Thank you so much for such an amazing experience! We will be back for sure!

I surprised a friend with a scenic flight route overlooking Dublin city. From the flight experience to the views, the morning was amazing. Clinton, our pilot made the day extra special. He was highly experienced, with thorough briefs on the aircraft to the safety procedures, ensuring we also got the best footage of Dublin's fantastic landmarks along the route. With over 20 years of experience, we felt safe & relaxed in Clinton's capable navigation.

Competition winner for a simulator session. My son age 11 used the voucher and we both went. From the minute we arrived we loved the place. Everyone there is so nice and the facility is fabulous. Then we met our instructor Jeremiah and that was it, he made this experience, the most friendly, funny nice man you could ever meet, had so much knowledge and patience with me and my son. Iv already recommended this to so many people today. We will be back to do the 737 ASAP. Highly recommend this to anyone that has an interest in flying. We had the most perfect afternoon today. Thank you so much everyone at the national flight centre.

The introductory flight was amazing! I had a fantastic time and Chris was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly throughout the experience. I did experience a bit of motion sickness toward the end which was a little disappointing but it didn’t take away from how much I enjoyed it overall. I’m definitely planning to try it again and I am seriously considering signing up for the Wings course.
Michael

Such a wonderful experience flying high with my pilot Clinton Gannon on a Cessna 172. He was so informative and had a passion for flying which he imparted to me. Overall a great introductory flight with friendly and helpful staff. They also accommodated my family as curious onlookers which was very much appreciated. Definitely a great memory.
