In Chapter 4 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (The Seven Potters) Voldemort was flying unaided, which meant it must have been done with the use of a spell.
Fast forward to Chapter 30 (The Sacking of Severus Snape). Snape jumped out of the window and flew off while McGonagall and the other teachers where in hot pursuit of him. Harry, rather hopefully, wondered if he had jumped to his death. McGonagall, rather gloomily, remarked that alas, he had his wand when he jumped and could employ the ability to fly, a skill he no doubt learnt from his master. She also noted that this situation was unlike Dumbledore's final moment when he was wandless, and thus, could not jump from the ramparts of the highest tower to fly away from Draco Malfoy and the other Death Eaters.
So, this all implies that you do need a wand to fly.
Voldemort started out with a wand but after Harry's wand destroyed it, Voldemort was rendered wandless. You may recall that he was demanding Selwyn's wand.
In short, how did he remain airborne? Side question: did J.K. Rowling ever comment on this extraordinary ability of unaided flight?
