Festival of Flight 2009

Club Penguin introduced a new party called the Festival of Flight in August 2009. Part of this party takes place on the Tallest Mountain, but only members can access it. When interviewing Gary in the newspaper, he pointed out that the solution to fix the windows in the Cave is to lift Club Penguin out of the water. The Festival of Flight 2009 was held between August 14–18, 2009. The Club Penguin Team said that the party will be extended until the 20th, just in time for the Underwater Adventure.

History

This Party all started when Gary the Gadget Guy had pointed out that the Cave windows were worn out and were leaking. He had said that having a Water Party would be too dangerous, So Gary started making plans for Club Penguin to be lifted in the air. Later on, in the Newspaper, Gary posted his solution to fixing the Windows - lifting Club Penguin into the air via giant balloon - then when they had been replaced, he would gently lower Club Penguin down into the water. The party started on August 14, 2009.

• The Festival of Flight was expected to be the Water Party 2009.
• Gary mentioned that before the party he will need some volunteers to help in the Underground Pool, this meant that there was  a construction at the pool.
• In one of the activities in 101 Days of Fun, it is mentioned that they want some users to send Club Penguin a picture of a toy penguin preparing for this party for Penguins Around The World.
• The login screen showed that the Lighthouse had a propeller on the top.
• Gary waddled around during the party.
• The Festival of Flight may return in 2010 as Billybob said it would be the "first" Festival of Flight.
• In the pool, when you click on the lights, they go off then come back on, this happened to the Dig Out the Dojo, but when you clicked on them a ninja poster appeared, in the pool nothing happens.
• On the balloon ride many penguins pretend to throw up.
• At the Dock, Beach and Cove, the water is gone and blocades are put to keep penguins from falling off.
  • At the Dock, where the Hydro Hopper tubes usually are, there was a special tube leading to the ground.
• You could drop the sandbags from the balloon to make it go faster.
• When the party ended, many penguins did not wear their Jet Packs.
• The construction at the Pool was a success.
• Gary appered at the first time at a place where Non-Members can access: The Cave.
• This party may have been based on the Disney Pixar movie: Up. Speculations of this began because of the fact that Disney bought Club Penguin, and could possibly be using it to advertise their movies.
• It may come back in 2010, But it is highly doubtful.
