What is the difference between "Incentive" and "Training and Development" programs?
Incentive programs give your company the chance to enhance corporate meetings or reward employees with the U.S. Space Camp or Aviation Challenge backdrop. Training and Development programs are designed specifically to address specific organizational learning objectives. Our facilitators will pre-assess training needs prior to arrival and tailor a curriculum specifically for company needs.

How many people can I bring?

For Aviation Challenge capacity ranges from 8-40 people participating simultaneously. Additional activities may be selected for increased program participation (with varying capacities): land survival, water survival and our AREA 51 Leadership Reaction Course.

How much does it cost?
All costs are based on the cooperative assessment of your organization's needs. Program costs include all materials necessary to complete the program and most on-site catered meals. Incentive programs range from $495-$995 per person for a standard 1 or 2 day program. Training programs vary depending on number of participants, length of program and options selected.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

Isn't Space Camp just for kids?
Based on the highly acclaimed SPACE CAMP program, our corporate experiences are specifically designed for adults. Participation includes a simulated Space Shuttle mission(s) and astronaut training simulators, however, the curriculum is professionally oriented and the training programs are geared toward leadership development learning.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

Is the "Area 51" course physically challenging?
Not particularly. Specifically on the Low Course, some of the exercises require more physical ability than others, but as a rule, your goals cannot be reached without teamwork and trust. Activities are designed to test mental stamina rather than physical strength and everyone must work collectively to complete each task.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

Do you have to have any previous flight training experience?
Not at all! For AVIATION CHALLENGE, your instructors will teach you everything you need to know to accomplish your missions.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

Do you accommodate special dietary requests?
Yes. We make every effort to accommodate special requests with alternative choices for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Just tell us before your arrival and our catering staff can make sure that their needs are taken care of.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

Do the program prices include transportation to and from the airport? Yes. We can transport you by bus from the airport to your hotel and back. We will
also provide you with transportation from your hotel to our facility throughout your stay with us.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

What if I want to cancel my reservation?

In order to book a Corporate SPACE ACADEMY or Corporate AVIATION CHALLENGE, we require a signed contract and a deposit of 50% of the total amount due. If you decide to cancel a session, please notify us in writing within 90 days prior to your session date for a full deposit refund.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

What are my options for payment?
We can either send your company an invoice, or you can pay your deposit or balance by using VISA, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express. You may pay by mail with a check or money order.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

What do I need to wear to participate?
You will be wearing a flight suit when you participate in our programs, so it's a good idea to wear something lightweight and comfortable under your outfit. For outdoor activities, such as Area 51 or Land Survival, we also recommend participants wear boots or althletic shoes.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

How soon do I need to make a reservation?
We recommend you make your reservation a minimum of 6 months prior to your desired date. Space is limited during the months of June, July, and August. If you are interested in a Training and Development experience, our facilitators need at least two months to conduct the necessary assessments to tailor a curriculum for your company.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

What is included in the base price of the program?
Most meals, transportation, and all materials necessary to complete the program are included. Accommodations are not included. Everyone will receive a certificate of completion and wings during their graduation ceremony at the end of the program.

BACK TO QUESTIONS

What hotel would you recommend for our stay?
There are many lodging facilities in the Huntsville area. The Huntsville Marriott is the closest, as it is directly adjacent to our facility.
