Pilots often buy or lease an airplane with the intention of using it for traveling to destinations they couldn’t easily reach by other means. But there’s a special transformation that takes place when you go beyond the utilitarian trips for business or family travel and use your airplane to explore the world. You not only get to your destination in the best way possible, but you’re granted the opportunity to grow as a pilot and human.
In 1998—25 years ago—Air Journey was founded to help pilots achieve dreams of long-distance travel with their airplanes. The company now leads globally with its escorted flying journeys. The first trip took four GA pilots flying their airplanes to the southern Caribbean islands of San Salvador, Stella Maris, and Andros. Now, Air Journey has grown to a company approaching $10 million in sales and itineraries ranging from 4 to 76 days, and visiting up to 27 countries.
