Wow, just an overall excellent experience, two of us went on 45 mins each at the controls and passenger in the other... Our Captain Scott was excellent, really informative and cool and in control! Was surprised at how much we could learn in a short time and gave us both much more insight into flying! Brilliant from the time we entered to the time we left, thank you all so much. By the way the Aviator Cafe a hundred yards away does a mean bacon sandwich so arrive early in time for that!
‘Flying’ the B737 simulator was a truly magnificent experience. After being guided through the flight deck instruments and systems by my 737 instructor, Scott, we ‘pushed back’ to get the first experience of the moving 180 degree ‘outside’ display then made a takeoff to get some feel of the handling of the 737. We did a circuit and ‘touch and go’ at Orlando in the U.S. before changing locations to do a take off and landing through the mountains in Queenstown New Zealand then finally re positioning for a landing and taxi to the terminal in Wellington New Zealand. The whole flight simulator experience was recorded on video looking over my shoulder and the playback is very realistic. The picture is of the approach to Wellington NZ taken from the from the passenger seats to the rear. If you are thinking of having a go, do it, thoroughly recommended!

Absolutely amazing!! I booked a 60 minute flight simulation for my husbands 60th Birthday. We were made to feel extremely welcome upon arrival. Craig went through what we wanted to get from the experience, any airports preferred and also asked what my fear of flying entailed. Really great communication throughout, my husband throughly enjoyed it! As did I as the passenger and might even be tempted to book for myself in the future 😊✈️. Thank you again and will highly recommend to anyone!!!

Incredible experience from sign up to actual SimAir experience
The process from purchase to the actual SimAir experience was seamless - I paid online and was soon contacted by Mark, who kindly and promptly booked me in. I then received a clear email with instructions and important information in advance of the day. The venue was easy to get to (I took public transport), and it was very easy to locate the building. My instructor was Richard - a former pilot with a strong career in aviation. He was very professional and enthusiastic; he clearly enjoys teaching others about flying. His instructions were thorough and clear, which was much appreciated as it helped me grasp the material relatively quickly. I liked the attention to detail in decor, for example, they made the office/entrance area look like you're actually at the airport. I would recommend this experience to anyone who is enthusiastic about planes/aviation. You don't need to have any prior flight experience to enjoy SimAir737.

An outstanding session - really exceeded our expectations
Thank you to all involved for such a wonderful session. I booked for my 12 year old plane mad boy. Booking was a breeze - details taken by a really personable chap, who provided us with great additional info about parking and where to get lunch (this really added to our afternoon). The session from start to finish was very professional, informative and fun. The gentleman who took the session made it so enjoyable. Really excellent value too. Thank you so much, we will be back!
