First-class tandem flight – 30 to 40 minutes on thermals above the Stubai Valley
The first-class flight is our longest tandem flight: 30 to 40 minutes in which your pilot uses thermals and covers real distance in the Stubai Valley. Take-off at the Elferlifte or Schlick 2000, depending on the wind. €185 per person.
What to expect
Your pilot plans a route along the valley sides, gains height in thermals and shows you the Stubai Valley from angles usually reserved for cross-country pilots.
It suits anyone who has flown before and wants more – or makes a special gift for a milestone birthday. Allow around an hour and a half.

Choose your date
We meet at the Elferlifte (Moos 12b, Neustift). If the wind means we launch from Schlick 2000 instead, we'll let you know beforehand. If the thermals aren't right on the day, we reschedule free of charge.

Message on WhatsAppDo I need experience for the first-class flight?
No experience is needed. You should be comfortable with the idea of spending a longer time in the air, including turns.
What happens if the thermals aren't right on the day?
It needs good thermals, and they don't form every day. So we agree on the launch site and time with you beforehand and reschedule free of charge if the weather doesn't work.
How much time should I allow?
About 90 minutes from meeting point to after landing.
What happens in bad weather?
Safety comes first. If wind, rain or thunderstorms rule out a flight, we reschedule it free of charge.
What should I bring?
Sturdy ankle-high shoes, windproof jacket, long trousers, sunglasses – in winter also gloves and warm layers.
