Fantasy of Flight Florida
Celebrate The Spirit Of Adventure!
 Located
south west of Orlando around 30-45 mins, Fantasy of Flight Florida is a great day out
for all those enthusiasts who love the history of aviation over the last 100 years.
Also, it's a fantastic venue to visit away from the main theme parks over in Orlando.
As owner Kermit Weeks describes in his mission statement 'I hope the Fantasy of
Flight will help light that spark within to continue you on your journey'
Fantasy of Flight owner, Kermit Weeks, announced in March 2014 that effective Sunday, April 6 2014, the venue will close to the general public. Scaled down museum operates seasonally from 11AM to 3PM Friday-Sunday. Please check calendar for more information. From vintage aircraft restoration projects and over 40 fully built (May I say priceless) displays of aviation history on show in their flight museum based in the authentic 1940's airport village....you will be nothing but impressed and well worth every dollar you spend!
Tours and Exhibits:
You will find tram tours around the restricted areas including the airfield and
maintenance hangar. Ariel demonstrations by experienced pilots including Kermit Weeks
himself. Fighter town, where you step onboard flight simulators and take off and land
on the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown, and even for the young ones, a hands-on
interactive area where they learn all about flying through building paper airplanes
to a brilliant hang glider simulator.
After all that excitement drop in at the Compass Rose restaurant and admire
the Art Deco of yester-year and enjoy some really good food from a short-order menu.
