Glacier landing by plane
A glacier landing by plane brings a piece of Alaska to Switzerland. Experience landing on incomparable landing sites in the middle of the Swiss Alps. In a specially equipped glacier plane, you and the companion of your choice will enjoy a unique experience. Forget about civilization while you enjoy the breathtaking view of glaciers. Experienced pilots will take you to the Eastern Alps, Bernese Alps and Valais Alps where you can experience this unique glacier landing. The take-off is at Lucerne Beromünster airfield in central Switzerland or Reichenbach airfield in the Bernese Oberland. Choose your favorite flight time and region and off you go on your glacier flight. We will also be happy to advise you personally so that you can find your perfect flight.
From Beromünster airfield, you can fly to the most beautiful mountain regions in Switzerland, such as eastern Switzerland with the Glärnisch and Hüfifirn or the Bernese Oberland and Valais with the famous Petersgrat. The exact landing site is selected by the pilot based on the weather and snow conditions. From Reichenbach airfield, you take off in the middle of one of the most beautiful mountain regions in Switzerland. From here you can fly to the most impressive glaciers in the Bernese Oberland and Valais, such as the Petersgrat.
Important info
Due to the poor weather conditions in the 2023/2024 season, fewer passengers than usual were able to fly. Until the passengers on the waiting list have flown, we are unfortunately unable to accept any additional reservations.
Vouchers can still be given as gifts, but it will probably not be possible to redeem them until the 2025/2026 season. If the weather is very good in the 2024/2025 season, reservations will also be possible in this season.
As a short-term alternative, we recommend the Glacier landing by helicopter.

I was able to enjoy a sensational glacier flight with landing on the Petersgrat glacier in great weather. The administration/organization of Flight-Base is also highly recommended... friendly, uncomplicated and competent. It was an unforgettable experience that was offered to me here! Thank you very much.

Simply GREAT - it was a gift for my partner and he loved it. Super friendly, serious, absolutely trustworthy pilot, mega beautiful airplane and an incredible trip to the mystical Kanderfirn. Thank you very much again - we'll be back (hopefully next time I'll get to fly with you :))

Great experience, which I would gladly recommend to others. The only flaw was that my pilot only spoke English. In Switzerland I would expect someone who speaks German.
