Cyclostomata does not have any members that can glide or fly. They include lampreys and hagfishes which have elongated, round, eel-like bodies.

In phylum Arthropoda, the order Insecta includes animals who possess a pair of flying appendages/wings, e.g., cockroach, butterfly, beetle, etc.

In class Mammalia, bats can fly with the help of patagia. 

In class Pisces,  the flying fish Exocoetus has wing-like fins that allow it to glide for long distances above the water's surface.
