This was my first time in a small aircraft and it was a truly memorable experience. The pilot was very experienced, professional, knowledgeable, and I felt very safe the whole time. The views were amazing, the photos you can take are really awesome. If you've never tried something like this before I highly recommend it. Great gift idea!

This is such a cool setup! This is a legit Alaskan bush plane flown by some of the most professional pilots I’ve met. These guys aren’t just trying to build flight time to progress in their career, they already work commercially at two of the most prestigious employers in the country (Netjets and Southwest Airlines), and previously were combat military aviators. Therefore I know that they truly love what they are doing, taking people for flights here in Austin. They truly have a passion for flying AND for creating unique experiences for people that wouldn’t otherwise be possible without Austin Air Crusiers. I’m a former military pilot and current airline pilot and the true test to know if an operation is safe is if you’d send your family members up with someone… and I’m here to say I would. Go fly with these guys, you won’t regret it.

Absolutely phenomenal experience! Taking a private scenic flight over Austin in a vintage plane was the highlight of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and professional, ensuring we felt safe and excited for our adventure. The pilot was knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about the city's landmarks and history. The views were breathtaking, and the sense of nostalgia flying in a vintage aircraft added a unique and magical touch. This is a must-do experience for anyone visiting Austin! We can't wait to do it again. Highly recommend!

This experience was unlike any other! The plane is vintage and I learned things about Austin I never knew before. The pilots were very professional and are both prior military guys that currently fly for the airlines. Pedro and Chris made me feel safe the entire time! I also had the opportunity to experience the private aviation side of the airport which was really cool to see! I highly recommend doing a tour with Austin Air Cruisers!

It was a lot of fun! The views of the city, the lake, and the state capitol were amazing! I was able to take lots of photos and video! The breeze in the morning felt so nice! I highly recommend it—the guys both served in combat as army aviators and fly for the airlinesr. I felt very safe and comfortable.

We had a great time on a tour with Chris. The plane was awesome, Chris did a great job with piloting and guiding the tour. We don’t have much experience in a small plane but he was able to make it fun for us all. The merch is cool too. We’ll be back!!

There is no way to wrap words around what it meant to my son to have this gift of a flight, after dreaming about being a pilot for most of his life. It was a thrill to see our beloved Austin from above, and feel the air and the wind, while knowing from reading about the Piper line how stable and safe the P-12 was constructed to be. We had also learned how lovingly restored and upgraded this particular one is. Chris was kind, helpful, professional, and a great guide. He even let my son take the rudder for a moment, and in that moment I know he further stitched his heart into the sky above his hometown. What a gift! Thank you Austin Air Cruisers!

Amazing experience over Austin by air! You really need to come and see Austin from a different perspective. Chris was so great at explaining all the sights and he was the ultimate professional. Can’t recommend this tour enough.

Came in to celebrate my birthday! My first time flying ever, & I was very glad to finally check it off my bucket list! Chris was very informative and accommodating. We toured over the city, even catching some of the UT game! Definitely recommend these guys for your next private flight!
