What Can I Expect

Flying lessons in Oxford from London Oxford Airport! Buy a voucher for a 30 or 60-minute lesson in a four-seater aeroplane out of this renowned business airport at Kidlington, just north of Oxford city centre.

It’s a bustling place to fly from. There are a lot of aviation-focussed companies based in the area and the airport is within the catchment area of many UK motorsport teams. It’s close to London too, so there are often a lot of business jet movements. This pilot training school has an enviable position right near the large, curved apron.

Facilities at Oxford’s Kidlington Airport are really good. The control tower and terminal building dominates the airport and the Aviation Station Cafe next door keeps hungry pilots fed and watered on weekdays - and for weekends, there’s a handy Greggs at the airport entrance!

You will be flying in a four-seater plane for your lesson, sitting up front alongside the pilot. Friends and family will be able to watch you take off from the clubhouse, which offers superb views out across the apron to the runway.

All trial flights out of Oxford Airport are treated as actual flying lessons, so you will have plenty of time to take the controls (if you want to!) and get a taste of what it’s like to actually fly one of these light aircraft out of this vibrant, well-located airport. Buy your 30 or 60-minute lesson voucher from Into The Blue!
