Offered through Four Seasons Lanai, aspiring pilots can learn to fly a Cirrus SR22 and perform basic maneuvers such as takeoff, cruising and landing at the Maui Flight Academy. The flying lessons last two or four hours, during which you can fly directly over an active volcano vent, travel alongside tall sea cliffs to Molokai or go over the lush West Maui mountains before landing in Hana to explore the rain forest. For those who want to extend their airborne time, there’s the Fab 5 package — a full day of flying with visits to five locales: Molokai, Honolulu, Lanai, the Big Island and Maui.
Alii Royal Suite, from $21,000 per night, with flying experiences from $3,999. Contact Alastair McAlpine, general manager, alastair.mcalpine@fourseasons.com, +1 808 565 2889, fourseasons.com
