“Excellent experience all round!”

“Anyone who says Airkix has it's ups and downs is either misinformed, or talking literally! It was the first time I'd flown and absolutely loved it. The instruction helped me to improve really quickly and I'll be back for more soon! Sam Bruce”

“Had a fab time, thanks! Instructors were re-assuring, cool and enthusiastic. Great experience!!”

“Excellent flying we was a party of 3 adults Simon, Simon, Phil and a 10 year old Ethan. Great experience would all have loved more time or to fly to top with the instrutctor :( Ethan wants to join the kids club !!

“It looks so scary but once your in, it"s AMAZINGLY FUN!!!!!!!!!”

“Had a really fab day after all! Was very nervous and anxious on the day but our instructor made you feel at ease. Really enjoyed it, would definitely do it again.”

“The instructional video prior to the flight didn't reflect the instructions given during the flight experience. We all came away with the impression that we had been instructed to hold our arms at 90 degrees to the body. This meant that everybody spent the first 10 seconds of their 60 second first flight having their arms adjusted, which was a waste of valuable flying time.”

“A great experience - all 9 of us thought that it was amazing! A great choice for a unique family activity!”

“All the staff were very friendly & helpful, & everything we had to do was thoroughly explained, which was great!”

“Thankyou Airlix! We had an awesome time! Can't wait to do it again! We will definatly be back and will be telling our all friends! :) x”

“Free facebook share doesn't work!”

“Fantastically exhilerating”

“Awesome!!!”

“had a fantastic flight first time i have done it and can not wait to do it again”

“I will definitely do it again very soon”

“Experience went very well, thanks. Instructor Steve was making us feel welcome and save. Admin bit could be improved. Could not get through to anyone on phone. Difficulties with non-valid promo codes for photos spoil the whole experience somewhat.”

“Brilliant afternoon out. We travelled from Essex and it was well worth the drive. Great venue too (lots of places to eat / drink) after the flights. Our 16 year old and 13 year old did not stop smiling throughout the whole experience. Thanks to Steve their instructor who really got the best out of everybody”

“Just wow!! What an experience. The whole evening was well explained by helpful and professional staff who all seemed to really enjoy there jobs. THe flights themselves were something I'll never forget and I can't wait to go back....or even do the real thing :)”

“Maybe get pupils to adopt flying position during briefing. We had 10 mins hanging around between briefing and our flight so we would have had time for this”

“fantastic experience great birday present”

“It was totally awesome and a great family experience to share”

“Just felt a little rushed that's all.”

“Amazin experience, will definitely be returning!! Thanks!”

“Cant think of anything negative at all.”

“Great fun. A total thrill.”

“More time flying. I could stay in there all day!!!”

“Fantastic Experience. Coach Ady should be highly rewarded not beaten he made it a relaxing enjoyable flight.”

“Possibly an option for longer flight times before entering the tunnel or an option to enter with a friend?”

“Amazing, thrilling and really enjoyable!!! I must admit that initial expectations weren't high but boy was I wrong! Great compliments to Mike and the staff at the Manchester Airkix Centre. Thoroughly impressed with the DVD and having a go with friends made it even more exciting! I'm just itching to get back in there and have another go!”

“The only suggestion I would make is for the instructors to take everybody for the 'high ride' for the same amount of times - I saw some people being taken up once and some three times, that's all, other than that it was great !”

“Enthusiastic instructor (Fred), great explanation of what to do, good help, fun, in general - great experience !”

“kat our instructor was extremely good supporting my daughter who was very nervous.”

“kat was excellent at supporting my daughter, who although nervous, did enjoy the whole experience”

“It was fantaboulous I just couldnt keep the smile off my face!!”

“just a shame there was not more time!!!!!”

“The instructor was excellent and made the whole experience very enjoyable.”

“We were a party of 9, 4 of the dvds were of the wrong flight which was very disappointing to the party girls who received them. More care needs to be taken to ensure the staff burn these correctly as they are such a lovely memento.”

“It's hard to find your pictures from the link that's sent. The group did feel a little like we'd been abandoned when the induction video was shown without any staff present.”

“If I was American I'd say it was awesome. As I'm not, I'll just say it was a lot of fun.”

“Really good instructor and a very enjoyable and different experience. Thankyou”

“Loved it! Can't wait to come back!!!”

“Another great flight with Mike, my skills are developing and I am very tempted to go to the next available flight night. Thanks.”

“Our instructor Fred was very good - patient, funny, overall very please that we had him.”

“Only negative is I am one of the unlucky few who received the wrong DVD, if there can be some way of improving the success rate that would be fantastic.”

“I loved it and I will be back! :)”

“Massive Thanks to Ben @ Manchester!!! Made me feel comfortable even though I was shaking throughout! My husband and parents came to watch and were thoroughly entertained watching you throw me around in the wind tunnel. You must LOVE your job!”

“I really enjoyed the flying. It was something different and something new and I thoroughly enjoyed it”

“I thought the staff were very helpful and did a great job”

“to aid recognition of photographs could the flyers have numbers on their helmets?”

“a really enjoyable experience, nice friendly and experienced staff. all the thrill of a freefall without any danger.”

“Everything was great. Really enjoyed everything! All out awesome afternoon!”

“I think more chance for questions aand answers and what to expect in the wind tunnel would be good as my son found it hard to breath when he was in the wind tunnel and once he pannicked he had to abort his flight and couldnt do the second one at all.”

“fit more moves in .in time allowed”

“good experience”

“No really”

“It felt epic! Definitely coming back again”

“Great fun, staff really pleasant & helpful-love it”

“My instrcutor needed to smile as he looked very serious all the way through... But he was a very nice chap though..”

“Initially after watching people hitting the glass and trying to fly out through the doors I wondered what I had let my self in for. Then I watched one of the instructors and I was blown away. My time came to fly and I just wanted to do it over and over again.. I have the bug and WILL be back to learn more..!It was Fantastic!!!”

“I wanted to thank our instructor at the MK Airkix, Sean, who was brilliant. We came with our friends and their kids and he was excellent with the children making sure they were confident in the tunnel before releasing them. He made the experience really enjoyable.”

“Bit daunted by the staff at reception being tetchy with us flight virgins.”

“Steve was an absolute star and patient with my faffing and nerves. Pretty cute too!”

“I appreciate that a machine like that isn't cheap to run, but even with including returning discounts and such I still think it is a bit too expensive for such a short session. Fantastic fun though.”

“Had a great time! Really friendly staff. Short and easy to understand instructions for flying (Well... falling.) and there's really no other feeling like it; gliding around all over the tunnel. The instructors are great fun, and such big show-offs. Will definitely be coming again. - Rob.”

“Ryan our flight instructor was truly second to none with the teaching making it instructional and fun at the sametime. Big thumbs up to one and all at airkix THANKS”

“excellent”

“A smaller group and more time please.”

“we came today of a party of 8 and none of us had done it before. We absolutley loved this and it was such a fantastic experience, will definatley hope to be returning in the futre as all of the kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed it!”

“Would've liked to be a little less crowded by the Pros. We sort of stopped and started 'cos the Pro dudes were sharing the space and that was a bit daunting, so I bottled it and didn't go up the tower. The group that went before us had the space to themselves and they all decided to go up. Just sayin'.”

“It just need to be abit longer u don't get a lot of time in there for the money u pay”

“Thanks great day”

“Great experience!!”

“Very well organised from arrival to colecting the DVD. The Airkix team were all friendly and helpful. I was well briefed and looked after throughout.”

“At 55 I was a little concerned to find that many of my group were about 45 years younger than me but Ted made me feel like Peter Pan - About 12 years old and I can fly!”

“Friendly and helpful staff who made it an enjoyable experience.”

“Simon our instructor at Manchester was fantastic! I only wished I could have kept going!”

“Absolutely brilliant! You just don't want it end!”

“On a busy Weds evening, the little bar was closed. It would have been great for viewers if they could have had a drink from there as they wait around for quite a while - you'd have made a killing with that captive audience!”

“Should be on all adrenaline junkies bucket lists. Amazing experience. Even if it does make u look like a character from Bo Selecta!!”

“The training video is a bit heavy on the merchandising opportunities, which is a bit off-putting.”

“I wasn't sure I'd like it, but it was ace! ”

“Check in an hour before was quite long since it involved a lot of sitting around doing nothing. Also a little more explanation about the body position in the tunnel would be quite useful in the briefing.”

“Did have a thoroughly good time. Highly recommendable.”

“Joe was a fab instructor, really down to earth and helped to ease everyone's nerves!”

“Vikki who made the arrangements with the booking was first class and Chris the instructor was knowledgeable and reasuring and made it a fun for my 2 boys and myself”

“Mag says, could you just remind people that it is easier if you breathe through your nose. I know it may seem like common sense but it was a tip passed on to us by a experinced flyer.”

“A fantastic exprience. A big thank you to all the staff at AirKix. They made it a lovely day for us. A bigger thank you to Ryan, what a great ambassador for your company.his demonstration of flying was amazing!! Once again it was brilliant.”

“Already mentioned airkix to freinds .”

“Brilliant experiance”

“Really fun, but very tricky. Respect to the pros”

“What an uplifting experience!! Absolutely amazing!!”

“Loved every minute of a fantastic experience which I can't stop raving about. Can't wait to do it again. Staff are fantastic, lovely and really helpful. Souvenir of a dvd and photo too - what could be better? Nothing!!!! :)”

“My instructor was cool and his tricks were amazing!”

“Was so fun the instructors are amazing!”

“Amazing uplifting experience.”

“Arriving an hour before the flight time did seem a bit excessive as we were sat waiting for some of that time but it was good to watch the previous group flying although that was when I got nervous. I understand why you ask people to arrive an hour before though as it keeps it relaxed and flowing.”

“It was amazing experience flying in a wind tunnel. Ben, our instructor, was really supportive and helpful and I felt in safe hands right from the start of the flight. Getting to practice flying with someone there to help you and in a controlled environment was a real luxury and also exhilirating. Loved it!”

“chris our instructor was great and friendly, he made the experience what it was. All the people though were great. will definatley come again”

“Loads of fun!”

“First time I have had a full blown belly laugh this year, thank you :D”

“absolute ecstatic cant wait to do it again........high flyers...whoop! whoop! ”

“ The set of people prior had an instructor that took them up high in the tunnel it would be great if you could pre book these instructors as our party of 4 would have loved that opportunity :(”

“This was a surprise present and they loved it!!! Defo will book again ! GREAT TO GET A CERTIFICATE and DVD we also purchase for out little boy the fridge magnet & keying excellent and the time fly by !!!!!!”

“Tim our instructor was very helpful and gave us lots of confidence. I felt save under his instruction.”

“great fun and would recommend anyone to give it a try.”

“Great fun our group of adventurous ladies really enjoyed ourselves.”

“Ben was a fabulous instructor as I'm sure all the instructors are at Airkix - I would definitely do it again. Thank you”

“Maybe just to explain how to breath in the tunnel, I took a big breath as I entered and that took my breath away, this caused me to panic a bit. Please don't take this as a negative comment, i'm just a useless female.”

“Chris, our instructor at milton keynes was amazing, very professional and extremely patient. Thank you”

“A bit of practise on the bench (per video) before the flying would have been helpful. ”

“Very pleasant and helpful staff.”

“Thanks CHris we had a fab time, wish it had lasted longer, will be back soon to tick off my other ciompetencies hopefully”

“at nearly 50 i felt a little nervous first time about looking a fool with all those people watching but once in you dont notice them .do you do a beginers night were everyone is in the same boat? have to say it was a fantastic and will have another go with my daughter next time”

“Great experience and so glad I got to try this out. I have a feeling I may get hooked on Airkix. Please could you make sure I'm subscrobed to 'the club' as initially I didn't choose the option when confirming my SOR this morning.”

“A big thank you to out instructor Ben who made the experience very enjoyable. Hope to visit you again soon.”
