Gender Reveal Ideas: Boy or Girl? Find Out From the Sky!
Most gender reveals happen on the ground - this one takes to the sky on a private flight!
September 2, 2026
There is a particular kind of suspense in knowing that the answer is waiting somewhere below you. As the airplane approaches the reveal site, large letters on the ground come into view: IT'S A GIRL, or IT'S A BOY. Pink or blue smoke rises beside them. You see the colour through the window, turn to each other and realize that this is the moment you will remember every time you tell the story. SkyHigh Toronto Flight Tours arranges private airplane gender reveals departing from Burlington (about 40 minutes from Toronto).
From Arrival to Landing
On the day of the flight, the Sky High Toronto Flight Tours crew meets you at Burlington Executive Airpark. Your pilot walks you through what to expect, helps everyone board and makes sure you are settled before takeoff. The airplane carries up to three passengers in addition to the pilot, subject to the combined passenger-weight limit and operating requirements. A 360° camera is included to record the experience inside the cabin, so your reactions can be captured without asking someone to watch the entire moment through a phone. If you would rather bring a photographer or videographer, they can travel as one of the three passengers (any additional equipment must be approved in advance). Once airborne, the pilot follows the planned route to the designated reveal site. On the ground below, large letters spell out IT'S A GIRL, or IT'S A BOY, accompanied by matching pink or blue smoke. Nothing is opened or released from the airplane; the entire display is arranged on the ground and viewed from the sky.
Planning the Flight
Both parents can remain completely surprised. The result can be provided confidentially as part of the planning process, and the Sky High Toronto team will explain how to submit it without revealing it to either parent. Flights depart from Burlington Executive Airpark at 5296 Bell School Line in Burlington, Ontario. The airport is about 40 minutes by car from Toronto, depending on traffic, and is a convenient departure point for couples travelling from across the GTA and Southern Ontario. Because it is an active airport, access to the aircraft area is restricted. Sky High Toronto team will send detailed arrival instructions before the flight. A gender reveal flight requires more preparation than a standard scenic tour, so it is best to book as early as possible. The timing also depends on suitable weather. Wind, cloud and visibility can affect the flight and how clearly the display can be seen from above. If conditions are unsafe, SkyHigh will reschedule the experience for another available date without an additional rescheduling charge.
Plan Your Gender Reveal Flight
To begin, send us your preferred date and the number of passengers. The team will coordinate and confirm availability and pricing. On the day itself, all you need to do is arrive and look out of the window while enjoying the flight.
