This activity is not recommended for people with recent spinal injuries, pregnant travelers, or those with severe mobility limitations; always disclose medical conditions ahead of time.
Most operators include GoPro footage or photos of the flight—confirm inclusion when booking and ensure your device is secured if you bring one.
