Testimonials
Around the world in 90 minutes!
I had a fantastic 737 experience at SimAir737 in the capable hands of Christina. The experience was professional and fun from beginning to end and I particularly enjoyed landing (badly!) at Queenstown airport in the early morning. I also particularly enjoyed the fact that in 90 minutes I managed to fly to the other side of the world. I learned so much from Christina's depth of knowledge of all things aviation. It has really helped my fear of flying now that I know what happens on the flight deck. My experience was as the first customer after Lockdown and I was very comfortable with the fact that the simulator was a Covid-safe environment with plenty of precautions in place. I would thoroughly recommend this experience to anyone.

Purchased a flight for a Christmas present. Covid caused us to delay however as soon as we could we were booked back in.
From start to finish the experience has been absolutely fantastic.
Christina was our pilot, I only hope she's flying me on my next "real" flight as her knowledge and experience was 2nd to none.
Thank you all for making this a present to remember, we'll definitely be back.
