The experience here was really great. The coach was very nice, and the Chinese coach at the front desk was very friendly. I came here to learn to fly a plane for my birthday. After being here for 18 years, I should have come to the place for skydiving. It was my first experience learning to fly, piloting a plane through snowy mountains, which was super beautiful! Overall, everything was perfect: sunny skies, snowy mountains, canyons, and rivers.
Did a trial flight which was meant to include being able to take off the plane. I couldn't fully hear the pilot over the headset, but he said he had to do it for some reason, which really took away from the experience.nWould've been better if it was advertised as just a sightseeing flight rather than getting to fly!
Awesome experience. Did the 1-hour flight lesson to Mt Aspiring. You get to fly the plane for most of the time and since the two controls are linked you can follow the movements of the pilot in critical situations like the landing for example. The pilot explained a lot and even took time to answer all our questions after the flight. Highly recommended!
I had an absolutely incredible experience with U Fly Wanaka! From start to finish, everything was smooth and professional. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease right away. A special shoutout to our pilot, Angus, who was not only skilled but also provided fantastic commentary throughout the flight. The views of Wanaka and the surrounding mountains were breathtaking — unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Whether you're an adrenaline junkie or just looking for a unique way to see Wanaka, U Fly Wanaka is a must! Highly recommend!
Amazing experience. Great pilots and super fun experience. So don't ever miss it!!!nPlease ask for Fox Lee as your instructor, he is the best!!!
