Flying Experiences

What are the best flying experiences in Australia?

Whether you’re keen for a high-thrill activity or excited to see the unbeatable view from the top - or both - there’s something for everyone in our extensive range of flying experiences across Australia. At Adrenaline, we partner with the best experience providers in the country to bring you an exciting variety of experiences, and our flying category is packed full of exhilarating adventures. So, if you’re looking to treat yourself, or find birthday gift ideas, or Christmas present ideas, you’ll find it all here.

Among our most popular flying experiences you’ll find a huge range of hot air balloon rides and helicopter flights. Feel the thrill of soaring over cities, beaches, oceans, vineyards, bushland and more with our incredible balloon and helicopter flights across Australia. You can find helicopter rides for a variety of different durations, so there’s plenty to suit different budgets.

Some of our experiences are designed purely to give you a taste of flying, like our professional-level flight simulators and virtual reality flying challenges. With the simulators you can get into the pilot’s seat and master the skills of taking off, manoeuvering an aircraft, landing, and a host of tasks in between. 

If you are interested in the real deal, we have all the best skydiving deals for the most beautiful drop zones across Australia. Tick this one off your bucket list and enjoy the ultimate adrenaline-fueled flying experience.

For a water-based flight you could go parasailing at popular spots like the Gold Coast. Whether you fly alone or with a friend, parasailing is a fun way to take to the skies and take on the waterways. 

Flying experiences for thrill-seekers

If what is attracting you to the idea of flying is having an adrenaline-pumping, high-intensity experience, then you’re in the right place. We have heaps of flying experiences at Adrenaline that are made for thrill-seekers. 

The most popular is, of course, skydiving. Our huge range of tandem skydive jumps span across all of the most spectacular drop zones in Australia. You could be skydiving right over Wollongong beach, or the Great Ocean Road, the Sunshine Coast, Yarra Valley, or any of the amazing options we have at Adrenaline. Feel the thrill of jumping out of a plane and freefalling at incredible speeds, before enjoying a relaxed canopy ride down to the ground. 

Aerobatic flights are another exciting flying experience made for adrenaline junkies. As the equivalent of a mid-air rollercoaster, taking on the spins, twists and turns of an aerobatic flight is not for the faint-hearted! There is nothing quite like the exhilarating ride of a specially-made aerobatic aircraft, and it’s something to tick off your bucket list. 

Jet fighter flights are similarly thrilling flights that let you experience the speed and agility of military-grade aircrafts. You can enjoy jet fighter flights anywhere from Hunter Valley to Melbourne, Bathurst, Brisbane, and plenty more scenic locations across Australia.

If you’re up to the challenge, you can even get into the pilot’s seat yourself and take flying lessons. With our range of flight lessons you can learn to fly anything from a helicopter to an aerobatic plane and a variety of other aircrafts. Take control and learn to master the art of flight with experienced professionals.

We also have unique flying experiences like gliding and microlights flights, which can fulfil your need for height, speed and soaring. Embrace your inner thrill-seeker and find a flying experience that will get your heart racing at Adrenaline.

Where to find scenic flights?

If you’re looking for flying experiences that cater to more mid-range adventurers and provide unbeatable views, we have plenty of those too. In fact, we have a huge variety of different types of scenic flight that span all the most iconic and picturesque locations in Australia.

You can enjoy an exhilarating hot air balloon flight with a partner, friend, or your whole family, and check out spectacular locations like the Hunter Valley, Yarra Valley, Melbourne CBD and more.
