The Experience

Like Nothing Else On Earth

Hawaii’s largest, newest, most modern and technically advanced fleet of powered hang gliders!

In addition to having some badass little aircraft, our crew of three FAA Certified Flight Instructors and FAA Certified Light Sport Mechanic are the most experienced Powered Hang Glider addicts on the island. We fly an average of 320 days a year and are celebrating 15 years in operation….. all with a PERFECT SAFETY RECORD. (What all this means is….. we got yer back :-)

HALL of FAME

Why Choose Us?

Paradise Air is O'ahu's #1 Aerial Experience!

Having been in business since 2003, we've taken over 15,000 people on their first trike flights... all with a perfect safety record. Denise has more hours flying trikes than any other female trike instructor in the world with over 6400 hours teaching in the sky! She also flies airplanes and gliders and is known to hurl herself from airplanes (skydiving) and off of buildings, cliffs and bridges whenever she can (BASE jumping). Jeni’s flying certificates and ratings put more letters behind her last name than she has IN her first, middle and last name combined! In addition to dropping skydivers out of a Cessna Super Caravan two days a week, she instructs in airplanes and is a multi-engine as well as an IFR rated instructor here on the island. Jeni recently took up learning to skydive as well :) She’s recently added trikes to her cornucopia of flying machines and out of everything she flies, trikes are her favorite! Tom’s extensive skydiving stunt and aerial camera work for Hollywood, not to mention his decades of flying hang gliders, easily makes him one of the world's most experienced "fly-guys" and top rated trike pilot. His impressive resume includes skydiving into the Olympics and skydiving with former President George HW Bush (twice!) He’s an Honorary Golden Knight and one of the most experienced trike instructors in the world having logged over 5000 hours teaching in the sky. With our fleet of three aircraft, no other trike company in the Pacific has the ability for you and your family, partner or friend to fly at the same time. We welcome you into our flying ohana.... come see for yourself what sets us apart from the rest!

Fly Hawaii Like No One Else

Experience a totally different kind of flying - powered hang gliding! Our flights are not only scenic and beautiful but also "hands-on"! Once aloft, we'll show you the basics of trike flying over the North Shore’s beautiful landscape and let you try your hand at it.

Not Sure You're Ready?

Not sure you're ready to take the helm? Don't worry! There's no pressure here. Some folks fly a little, some folks fly a lot, but almost everyone flies more than they think they will because these little birds are easy!

Wanna give it a try? Awesome!

Call us at 808-497-6033 to make your reservation. We fly 7 days a week. Mornings are best.... so good in fact that we start our flights daily at sunrise (best time!) and are in the air through about 11am each day. Flying in the mornings provides us Hawaii's best flying conditions.... light winds, smooth air, and pretty lighting. (US Travelers, here's a hint: plan us early in your trip and it won't be so painful when the alarm clock goes off since you'll still be on "Mainland Time").
