We have never had an incident in the air or on the ground in the many thousands flights conducted. We fly around rainy weather not through it. Cloudy days do not adversely affect us at all. In fact clouds make flying less hot and more comfortable.

Adverse weather is very common in Florida, but fortunately it is not persistent or widespread when it happens. So we monitor rain cells on the radar to enable us to fly routes and times to stay clear of the adverse weather.

If it is raining in the path of your desired route, we will wait on the ground until that rain cell moves out of flight path.

You will pay once you select your helicopter tour route after arriving at our airport location for your scheduled appointment time. We require your credit card information as security that you will honor your scheduled appointment. That time slot cannot be offered to others once we make a commitment to have pilot and helicopter for you. So, if you do not fly as scheduled we will charge a cancellation fee of 50% of anticipated flight or $100 per person whichever is greater.

Should you reschedule with at least a 48-hour advance notice for another time the cancellation fee will be applied to value of your next flight.

Individual passengers may weigh up to 300 pounds or 136 kilograms.
Combined weight for three passengers may be up to 700 pounds or 317 kilos.
If you are close to the maximum limits please be candid with us as this is critical to your safety.
