- 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 aircrafts fit 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!
