Independent, but never alone.
For experienced, self-reliant pilots who value freedom, community, and effortless organisation.
These trips are designed to give you the best of both worlds — the independence of self-guided XC flying, with the ease and reliability of a professionally organised trip. We take care of the logistics — accommodation, airport transfers and local transport — so you can focus entirely on the flying.
Share the experience with like-minded pilots, enjoying the camaraderie of a group atmosphere without the structure or cost of daily guiding. It’s a more flexible and cost-effective way to enjoy world-class flying destinations, while still benefiting from Sky Summits’ trademark support and safety systems.
You’ll have the freedom to plan your own flying while benefiting from the presence of a Sky Summits Instructor, who provides local knowledge, site introductions, daily weather briefings, mountain transport, tracking, and retrieves. Our team also coordinates emergency response and rescue support in case of any incident — giving you total confidence as you explore new skies.
Each trip has the option to add 1:1 Guiding on select days with our expert coaches. Whether you want to refine decision-making, improve speed-to-fly or push longer XC routes, we’re there when you want extra input.
