No. The instructor guides every step; experiences are designed for novices through enthusiasts.

Can I bring observers?

Yes, up to three observers can join and view the session from the cabin area.

Does the simulator move like a full-motion rig?

No. It has no hydraulic motion platform; immersion is achieved via 220° visuals, avionics, and sound.

What happens if I arrive late?

Arriving late may reduce your session time because bookings are scheduled back-to-back; aim to arrive five minutes before your slot.

What ages can participate?

Participants can be ages 4–99; minors must be supervised by an adult. Some restrictions apply for late-term pregnancy and severe mobility limits.

Is parking or transport included?

At Heronfly’s DUO Essential - Experience 1Hora, located at C. Goya, 17, 41005 Sevilla, Spain, you and a partner step into the crisp, instrument-packed world of an Airbus A320. This one-hour simulator session in central Sevilla places participants in a genuine A320 cockpit replica with a 220° wraparound visual and immersive cabin audio, recreating realistic flight conditions without leaving the ground. Designed for two, the Duo experience splits the mission: one pilot handles the takeoff, the other completes the landing. After a concise 5–10 minute briefing with a professional instructor, you’ll taxi to the virtual runway, set thrust, and fly a single complete flight under guided instruction. The simulator reproduces real airport charts, weather variations, and authentic cockpit procedures; it is not a motion-based platform, so the immersion comes from visuals, avionics, and sound rather than hydraulic movement. What makes this stand out in Andalucía is the fidelity of the setup and the social choreography of sharing controls. The A320-style panels are standard in airline training, and Heronfly leverages that layout to teach basic procedures while keeping the experience accessible to newcomers. Observers—up to three—can join to watch takeoff and landing unfolding in tight, airborne drama. The format suits friends, couples, families, and aviation buffs who want a compact, intense taste of pilot work without preexisting flight hours. Practical details are crisp: the activity is entirely digital at check-in; arrive no earlier than five minutes before your slot. Expect a guided walkthrough of avionics, a single full flight including departure and arrival, and post-flight debrief with photo opportunities. The experience is suitable for ages 4–99 with adult supervision for minors, but is not recommended for late-term pregnancies or people unable to step into the cockpit independently. The simulator’s lack of motion makes it accessible to most, though those with severe motion sensitivity should consider this before booking. Beyond the flight itself, Heronfly sits a short ride from iconic Sevilla sites like Plaza de España and the Triana riverfront, making it an easy half-day excursion with local culture. The company emphasizes low-waste operations and paperless booking to reduce footprint. Whether you come to press the throttles, learn instrument basics, or trade control with a friend during a virtual approach into a world airport, the DUO Essential condenses the technical thrill of airliner operations into a focused, memorable hour. Bookings are handled via Heronfly’s digital system and the session includes instructor guidance throughout; participants often schedule consecutive slots to practice approaches at different airports, or combine the simulation with a walking tour of central Sevilla after their flight for a fuller day. Bring a charged phone to capture cockpit frames—the fixed tripod in the cabin makes steady video easy, and candid reactions.
