90 Minute Flight in a Real Boeing 747 Aircraft Simulator for One

Ready for take-off? Climb into the cockpit of a real Boeing 747 and channel your inner captain with this 90-minute simulator experience that’s way more thrilling than your average city break. Based at City Airport in Manchester, this isn’t just any old simulator – it’s the actual upper deck of an ex-BA jumbo jet. You’ll get a quick 5-minute intro to the controls before taking off into a fully immersive, 180-degree wraparound screen adventure. Guided by a professional, you’ll take the reins and try your hand at piloting one of the world’s most iconic aircraft. Great for anyone who’s ever dreamed of flying a plane – or just really wants an excuse to push lots of buttons.
