That's a ukulele alright.......nice......

The Flight Story – From Slovenia to the World

Flight Ukuleles took off (pun absolutely intended) in 2010 in the small but mighty country of Slovenia. The company was founded with a simple mission: to create high-quality ukuleles that didn’t just sound great but also stood out in design, innovation, and playability. At the time, the European market was lacking affordable yet well-made ukuleles, so Flight stepped in to fill that gap—and they’ve been skyrocketing ever since.

Their popularity has gone global, with distributors in countries from Mexico to Australia. In 2019, they partnered with Hal Leonard, the world’s largest music distributor, cementing their reputation as a force to be reckoned with in the ukulele scene. Today, Flight is known for producing some of the most stylish, durable, and performance-ready ukuleles available anywhere.

And now, they’re coming to Musicmaker. Get ready Ireland!




What Makes Flight Ukuleles Special?

So, what sets Flight apart from the sea of other ukulele brands? A few things:

  • Design That Turns Heads - Flight ukuleles don’t just sound fantastic—they look incredible too. With everything from bright, quirky artwork to sleek, elegant finishes, these ukuleles are made to stand out. Many models feature laser-engraved detailing, vibrant colour schemes, and even artist-designed graphics, making them as much a statement piece as they are an instrument.
  • Built for Adventure - Flight takes the idea of portable music seriously. Their Travel Series ukuleles are constructed with durable materials like ABS plastic, making them lightweight, nearly indestructible, and resistant to humidity—perfect for musicians who like to play anywhere and everywhere. Whether you’re strumming on a beach, in a forest, or even on a mountain, Flight’s got a ukulele that can handle it.
  • Innovation at Every Level - From solid-body electric ukuleles that let you rock out with effects pedals to ergonomic armrests that make playing more comfortable, Flight is all about pushing the boundaries of what a ukulele can be. They also offer an impressive range of pickups and preamps, meaning their electro-acoustic ukuleles sound just as good plugged in as they do unplugged.
