Good to Know

Is it safe?

Absolutely. Every flight is conducted by an FAA-certified flight instructor (CFII) in a properly maintained, inspected aircraft. Safety is always the top priority.

What if the weather is bad?

Weather is always the final call. If conditions aren't flyable on your wedding day, we'll work with you on a backup date or a refund — no questions asked.

Can guests really fly the plane?

Yes! On a discovery flight, your guests take the controls under the guidance of a certified instructor. No experience needed — that's the magic of it.

How far will you travel?

I'll come to any airport that works for your venue. We'll coordinate logistics so your guests can get to the airport and back seamlessly.

What about wedding attire?

Guests can absolutely fly in their wedding outfits. We just recommend closed-toe shoes for the rudder pedals. Veils and long trains might want to stay on the ground!

How many guests can fly in a day?

With a full-day booking, we can typically fly 15–25+ guests depending on flight length. We'll build a schedule that fits your reception timeline.

Your Guests. The Controls. The Sky.

Every guest gets to sit in the pilot seat and actually fly the airplane — no experience required.
