Bio

Sean is a future flight instructor in training, currently tackling the 14 Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL) theory exams and hopes to be qualified in 2024. He's always had a passion for flying since a young age, but after finding a full-time career in the IT & Cyber Security industry, he's only been pursuing his passion as a part-time endeavour. Once fully qualified, he hopes to be teaching the next generation of budding pilots on a part-time basis at the weekends while remaining in his current post.

He founded UKFlightExperiences in 2022 due to excessively high booking fees on similar websites, when he realised he could offer the same service but approximately 20% cheaper.

Martin 5 My husband bought me a flight as a birthday present. I’d wanted to fly up the Yorkshire Coast as part of my bucket list. The flight was everything I’d dreamed it would be, and more. Sean spoke to my husband and tailored the flight to cover everything I wanted to see, it was just awesome. We landed hours ago but I’m still buzzing and grinning from ear to ear. Sean was a brilliant pilot, and it was breezy! I can’t thank you Sean for making my birthday experience and a big dream come true. Highly recommended!
Gary 5 What an incredible experience from start to finish, booking was effortless, organising the day with our pilot Sean was a pleasure and the flight itself, wow!
Andrew 5 ABSOLUTE AMAZING. It was the best things I have ever done, Flying over my house was great. Sean the pilot was so easy to talk too. So relaxing.. I will be spending quite alot of money on these flights lol. "Good show old boy"
Dawn 5 A fantastic experience with our friendly and knowledgeable pilot Sean. We would definitely recommend the experience to family, friends and even total strangers! We had a great time. Thank you so much.
Lynn 5 Sean the pilot was absolutely amazing! From the booking process to meeting Sean at the airfield this was such a smooth process. This was a surprise for my husbands 60th birthday and It was incredibly memorable, Sean was super fab and my husband has said it was the best gift he's ever had. Thank you so much for everything and Stu keeps telling me everything that Sean was telling him and how accommodating he was if he wanted to fly over somewhere specific etc. An absolute BRILLIANT experience and look forward to sending Stu up there again! THANK YOU

Steven 5 Very positive experience and would recommend flight and pilot to others.
Chloe 5 Very good communication prior to the flight and on the day of. Very polite and informative during the flight. A very enjoyable experience. Will book with this pilot again.
Simon 5 Had an excellent flight today with Sean. Very professional and knowledgeable. We will definitely be flying with him again in the future.
Suzanne 5 An experience which lived up to our expectations despite the weather. Sean was super accommodating and worth every penny. Will be back in the summer next time.
Amy 5 Absolutely brilliant experience. Sean was very professional and interesting to chat to. I was a little nervous, but I felt very at ease. Gift for my husband, who really loved it! Would recommend to anyone keen for the experience.
Karen 5 What a charming young man, felt at ease straight away as a nervous flyer. Was very knowledgeable about landmarks and aviation history! Loved the whole experience and will definitely do it again. Nice one Sean
Stacey 5 I had my flight with Sean on Saturday 25/6/22, it was my first ever flight at the age of 66. Sean very professional and struck the right tone to keep me calm, he was very informative and I enjoyed the flight so much. The emotions I felt for that hour would take far to long to write down, Sean was a very good pilot and I wish him all the best for his future endeavors. But the way you conducted you're self Sean I think your future is a very bright one many thanks
Sylvia 5 Great pilot - Sean is so calm, reassuring and communicative. We enjoyed every minute of our flight even when it was a bit bouncy as a result of the wind. A stunning route just as we had requested. Will recommend Sean to all our family and friends. Can’t think how it took me so long to find out about these trips!
Sarah 5 One word....AMAZING! Sean took my 7 year old son and hubby up for my little boys birthday and first experience in a plane. I knew we had picked the right pilot even before the flight. Fast responses, extremely informative and nothing was too much bother for him. My son has dreamed of this day but Sean took it that step further and went beyond my sons dream and actually let him fly the plane. He knew my boy was plane mad and was so informative the whole way through, teaching him all the aspects and explaining everything. At the end he even gave him a memento in the shape of a flight map which is now proudly above his bed. My son has been so overwhelmed to the point of crying because this gentleman made a 7 year olds wish come true. He has been inspired beyond belief. Book him you won't regret it. This will be our first of many experiences Sean will hopefully take us on. Thank you!!!
Anthony 5 Great flight with Sean yesterday. Very professional from the itinerary to the flight itself and even shares the Google GPS flightpath afterwards. Would highly recommend.
Colin 5 Absolute amazing time flying with Sean. I took a young person I was looking after on the flight, as it was his first time on a plane. Sean was very knowledgeable and put the young person at ease and shown us the brilliant sights of Rotherham, Sheffield and lady bower. We loved every minute and will be definitely booking again.
Dave 5 Flight was great, was very reassuring to our son who was experiencing his first ever time on a plane. Took us out off the planned route to fly us over our town and was always pointing out areas of interest. Highly recommended for anyone thinking of taking a flight
Michael 5 A brilliant experience. Sean was very helpful and informative. We asked to fly over the area where we lived and had enough time to fly over some of the reservoirs nearby too. Fortunately it was perfect weather too with no cloud and no wind which made the flight much smoother. This was our first experience on a light aircraft but I’m sure it won’t be our last. Definitely something we would recommend wether it’s your first time or you’re a frequent flyer. Thank you Sean
Munya 5 What an experience! Perfect gift for Mother’s Day thanks to Sean! Right from the start he was very informative & we felt comfortable the whole flight with him despite the weather! Highly Recommend!
