Is there a toilet 

On the Aircraft?

There are no toilets on the aircraft.  However there is a toilet at the Passenger Terminal and at landing destination e.g. Abrolhos Islands and Monkey Mia.

Why do you need my weight

For the Flight?

For light aircraft knowing the weight of passengers is essential for safety, passenger seating arrangements and completing a weight and balance. 

Can I bring  

My own snorkel gear?

You can bring your own snorkel gear.  However, we do ask that you contact us first and tell us the weight of the gear you wish to bring, so that our pilots can make sure that it can safely fit in the aircraft. 

What kind of  

Aircraft do you use?

All of our aircraft are high wing, single engine Cessnas.  Our current aircraft include;

Cessna 210

Cessna 207

Cessna 172

Are there minimum numbers 

For the flights?

For most flights the minimum numbers are 2 adult tickets. This for the flight to be able to go ahead and does not guarantee a private flight.  Private charters need to be arranged separately.

Will I get a  

Good view?

Thanks to the high wing aircraft you can get a good view of the scenery, not a view of the wing.  

Can I choose  

My seat?

Seats are organised by the pilots based on the weights of passengers.  Any alternate seating arrangements are at the discretion of the pilot, working within safety parameters.

Do you cater to 

Dietary needs?

We can to an extent carter to dietary needs.  If you have a dietary need, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can confirm if an alternative is available.

Before I Fly?

A safety brief is given by the pilot before each flight and safety cards are available on board. Please listen carefully to the briefing, as this contains all important information.

If you are concerned about anything, please report your concerns to the office staff or the pilot as soon as you can.

Can I Take Photos

On my Scenic Flight?
