Flying Squirrel Weston vs. Urban Air Plantation: which wins for families?

If you’re choosing between Flying Squirrel Weston and Urban Air Plantation, congrats—you’ve got two excellent, weather-proof ways to burn energy and rack up smiles. Both parks deliver huge variety, easy parking, and that glorious “out like a light” bedtime. The real differences show up in the mix of attractions, how the pricing stacks up for your family, and how simple the birthday flow feels. Here’s a balanced breakdown.

• Attractions: two flavors of awesome
  Urban Air Plantation leans “adventure park.” Beyond classic trampoline fun, you’ll typically see a spread that can include a ropes course, climbing elements, tumbling lanes, dodgeball, slam-dunk hoops, and kid-friendly play areas.
• Flying Squirrel Weston packs a deep trampoline-plus lineup under one roof: Freestyle Courts, Dunk Hoops, Trampoline Dodgeball, a Ninja Course, Battlebeam, Clip-in Climbing Walls, a Ropes Course, Slackline, an Arcade, and the on-site Drey Café for snacks and drinks. Little kids can cycle between soft play and beginner-friendly attractions while bigger kids chase challenges like the Ninja Course or climbing walls.

Verdict on attractions: it’s basically a draw. Your crew will have a blast either way.

Ticket prices & passes: where FS’s all-access price wins

• Urban Air (Plantation) uses tiers. You pick between:
  • Deluxe — $29.99: the core trampoline set (APEX trampolines, Slam Dunk, Runway/tumble track, ProZone performance trampolines, Drop Zone, Dodgeball, Battle Beam, Tubes indoor playground).
  • Ultimate — $36.99: unlocks the premium zones (Sky Rider indoor zipline, Ropes Course, Stairway to Heaven, Leap of Faith, Climbing Walls, Unlimited VR, plus Warrior Course).
  • In practice, if your kids want to roam the whole park, each jumper needs Ultimate. If one child is on Deluxe and their siblings are on Ultimate, you’ll be doing the upgrade dance at every attraction.

• Flying Squirrel (Weston) is one price for the whole park. No tiers, no upsells to reach the “good stuff.” A single jump pass gets you into Freestyle Courts, Dunk Hoops, Trampoline Dodgeball, Ninja Course, Battlebeam, Clip-in Climbing Walls, Ropes Course, Slackline, the Adventure Soft Playground, and more. (Arcade games are the only thing that cost extra—everywhere.) Typical posted rates:

• General admission: 60 min $19 • 90 min $24 • 120 min $29
• Toddler (6 & under): 60 min $14 • 90 min $19 • 120 min $25 (toddler rate available all operating hours; not valid during glow)
• Punch passes: Family 10-hour $150 (shareable) • Toddler 10-hour $98

Why that matters:

• With Urban Air, the “everywhere access” price is $36.99 per jumper (Ultimate).
• With Flying Squirrel, all attractions are included in the base jump time—so even at 120 minutes it’s $29, and 90 minutes is $24. For a family of three that wants zipline/ropes/climbing-type experiences, you’re looking at roughly $110+ at Urban Air (three Ultimates) versus $72–$87 at Flying Squirrel (three 90–120 minute passes).
• Toddlers are simpler (and cheaper) at FS: the toddler rate runs all day, not a narrow window.

Bottom line: both parks are a blast, but Flying Squirrel’s single, all-access price keeps the day flexible and the budget predictable. No wristband color checks, no “you can’t go on that” moments, and no surprise upgrade at the front desk—just pick your time (60/90/120), and the whole park is yours.

Birthday parties: prices and what’s included

• Urban Air Plantation structures parties around the same attraction levels as day passes. A Deluxe Party is $399.99 and includes a party host, water, tableware/balloons, and a few fun extras (like a T-shirt and a return pass for the birthday kid) but like regular tickets you don’t have access to nearly half of the attractions. Upgrade to Ultimate ($459.99) for access to premium attractions. You can reserve a table (included) or spring for a private room upgrade (+$75). Food is not included as part of the party packages.
• Flying Squirrel Weston kids birthday parties keep it refreshingly straightforward: 2.5 hours total with 2 hours of jump time + 30 minutes for cake and presents, a dedicated party host, and downloadable invitations. The core Bounce & Soar package is typically $350 on weekdays and $400 on weekends/holidays for 10 guests, with up to 12 more at a clear per-guest rate. It includes two large pizzas and bottled waters, plus birthday touches (crown, sign, plates/utensils, a Drey bottle and plush for the guest of honour, and a free 1-hour jump pass for later). Want more space? A VIP private-room version is usually $400 weekdays / $450 weekends for the same 10-guest base, with the same food and perks. Socks are $3.50/pair (reusable), and you can often host during glow at the same package price—a big win for older kids.

Quick read on value: if your priority is maximum fun and easy planning with food already baked in, Flying Squirrel’s party pricing tends to feel simpler and much more affordable.

The bottom line

On attractions, it’s essentially even—both parks deliver huge variety and ridiculous fun. When you add up the totals, though, Flying Squirrel Weston usually lands quite a bit lower (for both regular visits and parties). Different vibes, same grins—pick the one that matches your day and save the other for next weekend.
