Keep this page bookmarked as I always announce upcoming Free Fly events.
Anyone can join a Star Citizen Free Fly event! If you have an old account you no longer use (or can’t access), you can simply create a new one using referral code STAR-SFVL-W7BT. Existing backers can also participate — all Free Fly ships become available to every account.
Once a Free Fly event ends, access to the game and included ships expires. To keep playing Star Citizen permanently, you only need to purchase a starter package. Free Fly periods are often the best time to do so because CIG frequently discounts starter packs or offers upgraded bundles for new players.
A bonus referral reward is a limited-time promotion where new players receive extra items after creating an account with a referral code and spending $40 USD or more on the pledge store. These bonus items vary by event—hoverbikes, small ships, armor sets, or weapon packs—and are often paired with Free Fly events, though they sometimes appear as standalone promotions.
Simply enter referral code STAR-SFVL-W7BT when creating your account, and you’ll automatically receive 50,000 aUEC (in-game credits).

If you want help setting up your account, follow the step-by-step account creation guide for new players.
Jumping into Star Citizen can feel overwhelming at first, but you’re not alone. Many players learn simply by launching the game and exploring, while others prefer a bit more structure. You’ll find dozens of great beginner guides on YouTube, but the best way to learn is through Star Citizen’s Guide System, where an experienced player is paired with you one-on-one to walk through the basics of flying, missions, and earning your first credits.
