How to cancel flying magazine and reclaim your subscription

What is flying magazine

Flying Magazine is a respected aviation publication that delivers news, aircraft reviews, technical features, and safety guidance for pilots, aviation professionals, and enthusiasts across the globe. Whether you subscribed for in-depth pilot training insights or the latest industry reporting, you deserve to know exactly how to exit your subscription without hassle.

Formats and where you subscribed

Flying Magazine reaches you through multiple channels: print editions by post, digital issues via web subscription, and mobile app access through Apple App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android). Each platform has its own cancellation process, and understanding which one you used is the first step toward freedom from unwanted charges.

Why subscription platforms matter for cancellation

If you subscribed directly through the publisher's website, you contact Flying Media's subscriber services. If you signed up via Apple or Google, those tech platforms-not the magazine-control your billing and refund rights. This distinction is critical: cancelling in the wrong place leaves your subscription alive and your credit card charged.

Your consumer rights in singapore

Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protects you when you purchase goods and services, including digital subscriptions. You have the right to cancel within a reasonable timeframe if the service fails to meet the standard you reasonably expect.

Key protections that apply to flying magazine

Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, traders must not engage in unfair practices. This means Flying Magazine and its subscription partner must clearly disclose auto-renewal terms, provide a simple cancellation mechanism, and not hide cancellation options behind confusing steps. If the publisher makes it deliberately difficult to cancel, that breaches fair trading rules.

Additionally, if you discover you were charged after cancellation, you can lodge a complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) or escalate to the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS). Stopee recommends documenting all communication-emails, screenshots, payment records-before escalating, because these records are your proof.

Cooling-off period and refund rights

Whilst many digital services fall outside strict cooling-off rights, you retain statutory rights to refunds for services not yet delivered. If you cancel mid-term, any unserved issues or unused digital access may entitle you to a proportional credit. Stopee has helped thousands of consumers recover refunds by citing undelivered issues as the legal basis.

Cancellation methods for flying magazine

Your cancellation route depends entirely on where you set up your subscription. Below are the official channels; use the one that matches your purchase platform.

Cancel via the publisher's website (Web subscription)

If you subscribed directly through the Flying Magazine subscriber site, you have three cancellation options. Each one achieves the same result: disabling auto-renewal at the end of your current term.

1. Email subscriber services
   • Send an email to flyingmedia@omeda.com with your full name, subscriber account number (find it on your invoice or email receipt), and a clear cancellation request.
   • Request written confirmation of cancellation; save this email for your records.
   • Allow 5-7 business days for processing and expect auto-renewal to disable before your next billing date.
2. Call the subscriber hotline (US-based, but they serve international customers)
   • Ring +1-800-678-10797 Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. US Central Time (which is 9:00 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. Singapore time the next day-plan accordingly).
   • Have your account number and billing email ready when you call.
   • Ask the representative to confirm the exact cancellation effective date and email you a cancellation reference number.
3. Mail written cancellation notice
   • Print or handwrite a letter stating your name, subscriber account number, and cancellation request.
   • Post it to: Flying Magazine, PO Box 150, Lincolnshire, IL 60069-9935, USA.
   • Use registered or tracked mail so you have proof of delivery. International shipping can take 2-4 weeks; allow extra time.
   • Warning: postal delays may mean your letter arrives after your next renewal, so combine this method with an email confirmation.

Cancel via apple app store (iOS)

Apple controls your billing for in-app subscriptions. You must disable auto-renewal through your Apple ID account settings; cancelling inside the Flying Magazine app itself does not stop charges.

1. Open Apple ID settings
   • On your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings > [Your Name] > Subscriptions.
   • Alternatively, open iTunes on a Mac or PC and sign in with your Apple ID, then navigate to Account > View My Account > Subscriptions.
2. Locate the Flying Magazine subscription
   • Scroll through your active subscriptions and tap or click on Flying Magazine.
   • Check the renewal date-this is when you will be charged next.
3. Turn off auto-renewal
   • Tap or click "Edit" or "Turn Off Auto-Renewal" (wording varies by iOS version).
   • Confirm your choice when prompted.
   • You will see a cancellation confirmation with an expiry date for your current billing period.
4. Verify the change
   • Return to Subscriptions to confirm auto-renewal now shows "Expires [date]" instead of "Renews [date]".
   • Screenshot this screen as proof for your records.

Pro tip: Apple grants a 14-day refund window for accidental or duplicate charges on new subscriptions. If you were charged within the last 14 days and did not intentionally renew, request a refund directly through your Apple ID purchase history.

Cancel via google play (Android)

Google Play manages billing for Android app subscriptions. Uninstalling the app does not cancel your subscription; you must disable it through the Google Play Store app or web portal.

1. Open Google Play Store and navigate to subscriptions
   • Launch the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
   • Tap your profile icon (top right) > Payments and Subscriptions > Subscriptions.
2. Find Flying Magazine in your active subscriptions list
   • Scroll to locate Flying Magazine and tap it.
   • Review the next billing date and subscription cost.
3. Cancel the subscription
   • Tap "Cancel Subscription" and follow the on-screen prompts.
   • Google may offer a retention discount; decline it unless you genuinely want to stay subscribed.
4. Confirm cancellation
   • You will receive an email confirmation from Google Play detailing the cancellation date.
   • Save this email; it is your proof.

Warning: If you delete the Google Play app or uninstall Flying Magazine, your subscription renewal will still occur automatically. Cancellation only happens when you explicitly turn off auto-renewal through the Google Play Store interface.

What happens after you cancel

Cancelling Flying Magazine does not end your service immediately. Instead, your access continues through the end of the billing period you have already paid for, after which all access stops and auto-renewal ceases.

Access and delivery timeline

Digital and print access remains active until your current subscription term expires. If you paid through 31 December 2025, you will retain access to the digital archive and receive any remaining physical copies until that date. After expiry, you lose access to the digital app and no further print editions arrive.

For app store subscribers, your access is governed by Apple or Google's policies, not the publisher's. If Apple or Google reverses a charge, your app access may be revoked immediately.

Auto-renewal and recurring charges

Once you cancel, auto-renewal is disabled. Your credit card will not be charged at the next renewal date. However, you must verify this within 2-3 days of cancellation by checking your subscription status or your credit card statement when the renewal date passes.

Pro tip: Set a calendar reminder for your original renewal date. If a charge still appears 5-7 days after, contact subscriber services or your credit card issuer immediately with your cancellation confirmation.

Refund eligibility and how to claim

Refunds for Flying Magazine depend on how and when you subscribed. Stopee advises understanding your refund status before you cancel, so you know exactly what to expect.

Refunds for web subscriptions

The publisher's standard refund policy covers unserved issues only. If you cancel on 15 June with a subscription paid through 31 August, you are entitled to credit for any digital issues or print editions scheduled between 16 June and 31 August that you will not receive. Request this credit explicitly when you cancel via email or phone.

Warning: The publisher does not offer pro-rata cash refunds simply because you changed your mind. You must base your refund claim on undelivered content or unused access. Stopee recommends emailing flyingmedia@omeda.com with the subject line "Refund Request for Unserved Issues - Account [Your Account Number]" to create a paper trail.

Refunds for app store subscriptions

Apple and Google control refunds for in-app purchases, not the publisher. If you request a refund from Apple or Google within 14 days of purchase, they evaluate it based on whether the subscription is new or a renewal. Cancelling the subscription does not automatically trigger a refund; you must request one separately.

• Apple: Visit reportaproblem.apple.com, select the Flying Magazine charge, and choose "I would like a refund for this purchase." Apple reviews requests within 48 hours.
• Google: Open the Google Play Store app, go to Payments and Subscriptions > Subscriptions, find Flying Magazine, and tap "Report a Problem." Explain your reason for the refund request.
• If the publisher or app store refuses your refund, escalate to CASE (Consumers Association of Singapore) with copies of your purchase receipts and cancellation confirmation.

Flying magazine pricing and subscription plans

Pricing varies by region, subscription length, and promotional offers. Stopee recommends checking the official source directly rather than relying on third-party quotes.

Important: SGD pricing for 2025-2026 is not consistently published in public sources. Log in to the App Store or Google Play from a Singapore account, or email flyingmedia@omeda.com directly, to see current SGD amounts.

Common cancellation mistakes to avoid

It is easy to think you have cancelled when you have only paused or hidden the app. Stopee has tracked thousands of cases where subscribers believed they had cancelled but continued to be charged. Here are the pitfalls.

Mistake 1: uninstalling the app instead of cancelling the subscription

Deleting the Flying Magazine app from your phone does nothing to your subscription status. Your credit card will still be charged on renewal day, and you will have no proof of cancellation. Always cancel through the store (App Store, Google Play) or contact the publisher directly.

Mistake 2: not disabling auto-renewal before cancelling

If you cancel mid-term but forget to turn off auto-renewal, you may be charged again at the end of your current period. On app store subscriptions, you must explicitly toggle auto-renewal off; cancellation alone is insufficient.

Mistake 3: cancelling by phone but not requesting written confirmation

Phone cancellations are easy for subscriber services to lose or misrecord. Always ask the representative to email you a cancellation reference number and the exact date auto-renewal is disabled. This email is your proof if a dispute arises.

Mistake 4: assuming your cancellation is instant

Web and postal cancellations take 5-10 business days to process. Do not expect your credit card charge to disappear immediately. Check your bank account on your original renewal date; if a charge appears, contact subscriber services with your cancellation confirmation and request a reversal within 24 hours.

After cancellation: your next steps

Cancelling is only the start. Protecting yourself after cancellation ensures you do not fall victim to surprise charges or forgotten subscriptions.

Monitor your bank statement

Set a phone reminder for the day before your subscription renewal date. On that day, check your credit card or bank statement to confirm no charge from Flying Magazine or the app store appears. If it does, contact your bank immediately and reference your cancellation confirmation email.

Check your subscription status one week after

Log back into your account (via the publisher website or app store) and verify that your subscription status shows "Cancelled" or "Expired," not "Active" or "Renewing." Screenshot this as evidence.

Keep all cancellation documentation

Save every email, reference number, and cancellation confirmation you receive. Store these in a folder on your computer or phone called "Subscription Cancellations." If a dispute arises weeks later, this folder is your defence.
