Santa’s Flight Academy, a one-of-a-kind, immersive experience that culminates with a special visit with Santa is at Fair Oaks Mall now through December 24. The holiday attraction merges the physical and digital to provide a personalized adventure for every child.
Set within the North Pole, each ‘cadet’ will receive an official flight crew badge and be instantly recognized by name upon entering Santa’s Flight Academy to become an elite member of Santa’s flight crew. From there, cadets are fitted with a virtual flight suit and will partner up with a helpful elf to inspect and power Santa’s sleigh and navigate the best course for the big day. The experience culminates with a snowfall dance party and, of course, time with Santa who will greet his crew members personally by name. My kids thought this was so much fun to do! We loved creating our badges and becoming members of the crew. This is the best way to keep your kids engaged and happy while they wait in line. There are many activities for kids to enjoy as they make their way to Santa!
Though not required, customers are highly encouraged to create flight crew badges in advance of a visit online or through the center’s mobile app (for iPhone/Android). Badges can also be created onsite at special Santa’s Flight Academy kiosks. This was very easy to do, I’d recommend it for a quicker check in process.
Santa’s Flight Academy is free and a variety of photo packages are available for purchase, each will include a complimentary Lovepop card. Santa’s Express Lane passes may be purchased online to reserve a designated time for the visit.
