Is your teen ready to spread their wings and explore the world? We understand that the thought of your child flying alone can be daunting.
That's why we offer chaperoned flights for our High School Special programs — designed to give parents and teens total peace of mind.
Our experienced chaperones will accompany and supervise your young explorer every step of the way, ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey to and from their destination.
Read on to learn more about how our chaperoned flights work.
How do your chaperoned flights operate?
We’ll meet you at the airport, then fly with your child to their destination (and on the return flight home) helping them to navigate check-in, security, customs, transfers, and immigration.

- Then, ask your Project Expert about the availability of chaperoned flights before you pay your deposit to secure your place on the project.
- The support fee will be added to your invoice, which must be paid in full for your space to be secured on the chaperoned flight.
Flights will be booked by 7 March 2025.
Once routes are confirmed, participating families will be notified of the flight costs, and they will have 48 hours to respond and confirm.
If all 10 places are filled before the 28 February deadline, we will endeavour to book the flight earlier to get the best price possible.
