There are plenty of free-to-play games out there, and that includes free-to-play flight sims. With those kinds of prices, you’ll need the best free flight simulators to take to the skies on the cheap. X-Plane 11, for example, is still a full $60, despite being three years old, and it has over $2,000 worth of DLC.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is probably the best way to do that now, but the game will run you $60, at least, plus the cost of additional planes. With air travel mostly impossible in 2020, it’s tempting to take to the virtual skies.
