Open Cockpit Biplane Sightseeing Ride in San Diego
50 min
About this activity
Head to Montgomery Field Airport six miles (10 km) north of downtown San Diego to board your open cockpit biplane. Up to two passengers can sit in the front cockpit, while the pilot operates the plane from the rear cockpit. Depending on the route you choose (see Itinerary below for options), see downtown San Diego, La Jolla, Del Mar, Torrey Pines, Mission Bay, Coronado or Rancho Santa Fe. You can choose to fly low and slow to capture amazing photos. All of our flights are for sightseeing only. We do not include aerobatics.
Our biplane was originally built in May of 1927, the same month that Charles Lindbergh flew across the Atlantic, and was used to carry airmail.
Your biplane ride will last 20 minutes to 50 minutes, according to the itinerary chosen. Conclude your memorable flight at Montgomery Field Airport.
Please note: If you would like a separate plane for each person, please make individual bookings for each party. Any 2 passengers on the same booking will share a plane.

Bonnie was more than accommodating to us. She made sure am our needs were met and it was a true pleasure. George the pilot was informative and genuine. How many chances does one get to fly in a 1927 bi-plane.
Fantastic experience - flying the way it should be!
The biplane tour was incredible! They were all very kind and helpful, and the flight itself was magical. Without a doubt, one of my best experiences. My boyfriend and I did the 40 minute flight and it was the perfect amount of time; our pilot even threw in some fancy flying maneuvers.
Did this as a gift for my boyfriend on his birthday and he really loved it. Bonnie and John, our pilot, took care of us and made sure we had a great time. A bucket list experience for sure!
