A Correct answer
Explanation

'Their right to fly' is correct because 'right' is followed by the infinitive 'to' + verb when indicating permission or entitlement. 'Right of fly' is grammatically incorrect - 'of' would need a noun (like 'right of flight'). 'Right to flying' and 'right in flying' don't follow standard English patterns for expressing rights.
