 |  Aviation Vacations organizes aviation tours of America's most beautiful regions. It all started when Aviation Vacations’ founder, private pilot Charlene Gervais, experienced the perfect balance of general aviation, relaxation, and sightseeing on a flying trip through Chile. She realized others would enjoy the same hassle-free vacation she had found so rewarding.
So began the dreaming, scheming, researching and planning to find the best ways to combine general aviation and vacation travel in the United States. Charlene and her team have consulted local experts and have toured the nation to bring you unforgettable itineraries that overfly the nation’s most beautiful areas, combined with the restaurants, hotels, and entertainment that define each region. Welcome to Aviation Vacations! You do the flying, and we’ll take care of the rest. Why Choose Aviation Vacations? |
You’ll like our approach. We make sure pilots and their spouses have as much fun on the ground as in the air! Join a guided flying excursion, and you’ll experience “no herding allowed” group activities, plus have plenty of time to explore on your own or participate in optional activities. It’s all hand picked and perfectly balanced to satisfy both thrill seekers and quiet souls alike. See America’s most beautiful regions. Each day will take you to the best events and attractions available along your route, and each night will guide you to the hotels, resorts, and B&Bs that best define the region. You’ll enjoy regional cuisine in local establishments, and get a taste of true local flavor on the way. Leave the details to us. Tie down fees, refueling, grand transport, accommodations… we take care of all the pesky details, from GPS coordinates to ground-based activities. Hundreds of hours go into planning each aviation excursion we offer, and we fly each route until it’s just right so we can give you the trip of a lifetime, hassle free. | | Cleared for the option. Join us on a guided excursion and you’ll fly with up to seven other like-minded pilots — we’ve set dates that show each region to its best advantage. If our prearranged dates don’t work for you, you can fly the route independently or bring a group of your flying friends — just give us your preferred dates and we will make it all happen! Your plane or ours? Bring your own plane or rent from the variety of aircraft offered by Aviation Vacations’ partners in each region. The choice is yours. If renting, you’ll be selecting from the country’s most popular planes such as Cessna, Piper, Diamond, and Cirrus (subject to availability; please inquire.). Partner companies have excellent safety and maintenance standards and are standing by to serve you! But wait, there’s more! Choose from many great options, with more currently under development in every region of the United States.
