6. SKYWEEK TRIPS
We believe life is all about having amazing experiences with likeminded people! SkyWeeks are designed to provide exactly that by taking qualified Pilots to stunning locations around the world, while developing their flying skills and knowledge. In 2024 we are running four SkyWeek Trips:
1. SkyWeek Dolomites: 11th - 18th February
2. SkyWeek Brazil: 1st - 12th April
3. SkyWeek France 1: 12th - 19th July
4. SkyWeek France 2: 30th August - 6th September
In the Dolomites we operate from a private chalet in Vigo di Cadore. The nearest airports are Treviso and Venice. In Brazil we operate from a hotel on the coast at Saquarema. The nearest airport is Rio de Janeiro. In France we stay in campsites to remain mobile so we can relocate to different parts of the country depending upon the weather. We therefore suggest clients drive from the UK in their own vehicle. Campervans and caravans are also welcome. The SkyWeek fees vary from country to country and depend upon whether you are using your kit or ours. To discover more visit the Trips page or contact us.
