Frequently Asked Questions

Can I mix pay‑as‑you‑go and block hours?
Yes, use pay‑as‑you‑go for occasional lessons, then switch to blocks when you’re ready to save.

Do block hours expire?
yes, after 12 months but if something happens and you know you wont be flying for those 12 months we can hold it for when you’re ready upon request, so you can train at your own pace.

How do I check my remaining block time?
You’ll see your balance in real time via Flight Circle, and we’ll email you when you fall below two hours.
