The Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster disagree with you. Yes, the primary meaning of the word fly is moving through the air on wings, but they explicitly say space travel can also be called flying. Also this was about the man flying through space, not the craft.

I wasn't flying through space, I was traveling through space, officer, so I don't need a space flying license!
