Changing Flight Plans
With our summer and winter flight plans, as well as the option to generate your own flights, we offer you constant variety and exciting destinations.

Destination of the Month, Events, and Tours
Every month, there is a “Destination of the Month” with an award. We also offer tours that reward you with an award upon completion, and we organize group event flights.

Part of NordFly Group Airlines
As part of the largest cohesive fictional virtual airline group in Germany, consisting of NordFly, NordFly Cargo, and FlyHoliday Airlines, you benefit from diverse flight options and concepts. As a pilot, you can also fly for the other airlines in the group after completing 10 accepted flights for NordFly.

Our Target Group?
Our airline is aimed at pilots with prior experience who can safely fly an aircraft from our fleet from A to B and master the applicable IFR/VFR procedures.

New to Flight Simulation?
If you are new to flight simulation, NordFly is not the right place for you, as we do not offer a classic flight school.

Previously Only Flying Offline?
Even if you have only flown offline so far, you are warmly welcome with us. You can continue to fly offline. However, our community is happy to support you in transitioning to online flying if you wish.

Free and User-Friendly
NordFly is free to use. Our modern software and user-friendly interface make flying easy and enjoyable. With the latest version of phpVMS and ACARS software, we offer seamless flight recording and planning.

Professional Liveries
Our aircraft shine in high-quality, professionally crafted liveries for various simulators, handcrafted by our professional painting partners—truly eye-catching!
