Make a Reservation with SkyHoppers

General flight training in the San Francisco Bay Area is provided on a Pay-As-You-Go or block-payment basis and does not require a reservation as we are readily available to accomodate your needs at either the Palo Alto or Reid-Hillview Airports.

Due to the intensity of the Skywagon training, Skyhoppers only offers 10 training slots per year, so be sure to make your reservation soon before the training calendar is filled for the 2023 season! All Skywagon trainees must arrive for training with a current FAA Flight Review.

Aerial excursions in the SkyHopper Skywagon require a 50% deposit at least 1-month in advance.
