According to DC comics, when he was created in 1937, Superman, Kal-El, was born on Krypton, a large planet with a red sun. When he landed on Earth as a baby, the Earth's lower gravity combined with our yellow sun's radioactivity gave him his super powers, including the ability to fly.

The mechanism by which he flies is unknown, but some suggestions have been a field of energy allowing unconscious manipulation of gravity or defract/reflect of gravity due to unidentified Kryptonian organs affected by a yellow sun, or psionic manipulation of a personal anti-gravitational aura, which is also caused by his Kryptonian cells and a yellow sun.

Well he isn't human, and he utilizes two sciences known as cat aerodynamics and butterology, since buttered bread always lands buttered side down, and cats always land on their feet, what he has done is tied a piece of bread, buttered side up, onto a cats back and put it where the stomach is in humans. By changing the angle and distance of the bread and cat, he can direct himself in flight.
