Things to Know

  • Flying in our aircraft is just like driving in a car, with ventilation and heating control.
  • Simply dress for the season and sunglasses are recommended.
  • All ages can participate in a flight. Children up to 2 years old are considered infants, and must sit on the lap of a responsible guardian. Children older than 2 must have their own seat in the aircraft.
  • Our aircraft fits 3 passengers. The views are amazing, so we opted to keep our planes small and the experience intimate. You can get a nearly 360º view, and everyone gets a window!
