First flight experiences for sick or disabled children.
Fly n’Kiss offers sick, disabled or underprivileged children the dream-come-true chance of a first flight experience. This unique experience of a personalized first flight aboard a light aircraft is organized in partnership with flying clubs throughout France. Aerotherapy enables children with autism, for example, to express their first words and show positive cognitive and emotional reactions. To make the experience a memorable one, the association’s volunteers run a range of aviation-themed educational workshops for the children’s entertainment and to ensure they leave with their arms full of gifts. The discovery flights take place in 4 to 6-seater light aircraft piloted by experienced volunteers who are keen to give the children a wonderful experience. The Air France Foundation is co-financing the first flights, which will be organized between September 2023 and July 2024. The association is made up exclusively of volunteers, including many Air France employees.
