The ultimate gift experiences for individuals, couples, families or groups. With the help of our professional pilots, anyone over the age of 12 can fly our amazing motion 737-800 flight simulator - the only motion simulator in the South West!

Our 737 flight simulator is on a motion platform so you’ll experience the view and feel of flying - just as if you were actually at the controls of a real plane!

Upon arrival you will be greeted by our friendly team in the ‘departure lounge’ and offered a range of complimentary teas, coffees or soft drinks. Your friends and family are made to feel welcome too - you can bring 3 guests to share the gift experience from the passenger seats in our simulator. We’ll give you a full briefing then sit alongside you as you prepare for take off. Once you’re off the ground, we’ll help you fly to your chosen destination and guide you through the landing too.

The one hour flight experience is our most popular flight (and one of the nost popular gift experiences Devon and South West) as it gives you plenty of time to get the hang of the Jet and really feel that you are flying - you can even try out some acrobatics with the guidance of our professional pilots!

FLIGHT EXPERIENCE GIFT PACKAGES

Arrivals

Our Location

Virtual Jet Centre is ideally located at the heart of Devon countryside, with easy access to the Torbay area, Dartmoor, South Devon, Plymouth and of course, just 7 miles away from the magical city of Exeter. Exeter is a lovely city packed with history ranging from the Cathedral’s magnificent Gothic architecture to the mysterious medieval Underground Passages. We are just off the A38 between Exeter and Plymouth.

Departures

Your Friendly Flight Crew

Briefing

You Are The Captain

After leaving the departure lounge an instructor will provide your pre-flight briefing, normally lasting 15 minutes, before leading you down to the simulator, where you will take the Captains seat of our 737-800 Simulator alongside a fully trained commercial jet pilot.

Inflight

Feel the power, take in the view

Your experience starts with all engines running on the runway of your chosen airport, after a short departure brief it is time to advance the throttles and accelerate the jet down the runway and into the air. Our fully immersive simulator features incredible surround sound simulating the roar of the massive engines. Watch the world go by, through the cockpit windows as you leave the ground behind then straight into manoeuvres as you turn, bank and climb your aircraft around the skies. The view is incredible - you’ll recognise your favourite places from the air!

Destination

Achieve a perfect landing

As you approach your destination, it is time to lower the flaps and extend the landing gear as you commence your approach, trying to keep every instrument and gauge exactly where they are supposed to be. A perfect landing is extremely hard but an absolute thrill to attempt. And with such realistic surroundings you’ll truly feel you are doing this all for real!
