Flight ukuleles at Kirstein

Flight comes from Ljubljana, Slovenia, and started in 2010 with the aim of offering attractive, playable ukuleles at accessible prices. Since then, the brand has established itself internationally and developed a range covering different playing levels and applications. One characteristic feature is the combination of modern styling and practical instrument concepts. Alongside natural wood finishes, the range includes colourful surfaces, graphics and eye-catching prints. Community also plays an important role: Flight works closely with musicians, teachers and content creators and, through the Flight School, provides learning material for different playing levels.

Travel Series – the Flight classic

The Travel Series is one of Flights best-known product ranges. Typical models combine a laminated wood top with an ABS back, sides, neck and fingerboard. This makes these instruments less sensitive to changing climatic conditions than many ukuleles made entirely from wood. Their low weight and robust construction make them particularly interesting for travelling, lessons, festivals or an uncomplicated introduction to the instrument.

Flight offers Travel models in soprano and concert sizes, among others. Features such as a zero fret, ABS fingerboard and compact dimensions are designed for straightforward playability and easy handling. On many models, the functional construction is combined with decorative motifs, making the Travel Series a good example of the brands strong focus on design.

From classic ukuleles to the Rock Series

Players who prefer a more traditional construction will find numerous ukuleles with wood or wood-laminate bodies alongside Flights Travel instruments. Series such as Natural, Supernatural, Princess and Royal cover different material and feature concepts. There is also a choice of body sizes: alongside soprano and concert instruments, the range includes tenor ukuleles and baritone models. A larger body size can be worth considering for players looking for more room on the fingerboard or a different tonal direction.

The Rock Series takes a distinctly different approach. Models such as the Flight Pathfinder are electric solid-body ukuleles designed for use with amplifiers and effects. Flight therefore also caters to players who want to integrate the compact four-string instrument into rock-oriented or amplified setups.

Flight for bassists and guitarists

The Flight concept goes beyond the classic four-string ukulele. With compact bass instruments, the brand extends its range into lower frequencies. Bass ukuleles are an interesting option for players looking for a particularly compact bass format. Guitarists can also consider a guitalele: this instrument combines compact ukulele dimensions with six strings and a guitar-like playing style.

Which Flight ukulele is right for you?

For beginners and anyone looking for an uncomplicated instrument to take on the road, the Travel Series is a natural starting point. Players who prefer a more traditional wooden construction can explore the Natural, Supernatural, Princess or Royal series. Design-conscious players will find numerous colourful and graphically styled options across the Flight range. If you want to play through amplifiers, pedals and effects instead, the electric models from the Rock Series are worth considering.
