What to Expect on your Flight:
​
How Long Will the Experience Last?
The total experience will span approximately four (4) hours from initial meeting to final drop-off. Our actual air time will have a duration of 45 minutes to one-hour (depending on weather conditions, wind speed, and wind direction). We will meet at a predetermined location as we determine the best site enabling us to fly over the course.
​
What Should You Wear?
We recommend dressing in layers as the early mornings are quite cool. Once the sun rises the temperature will follow, at that point you can start shedding layers to be more comfortable. We also recommend outdoor wear, long pants, hat, sunglasses and closed-toed flat shoes.
​
What Time Do We Meet?
We will meet approximately 45 minutes prior to sunrise in order to plan our flight path. Next we will fill out the required paperwork, conduct our initial flight briefing, then begin our adventure.
​
What About the Weather?
Weather is the most important component of a safe flight, therefore, if weather delays or forces the flight crew to cancel the flight a full refund will be issued. Undesirable winds (both on the ground and at altitude), and rain are the most frequent reasons for flight cancellations and/or delays.
​
Are There Any Limitations/Requirements?
In order to take a flight all passengers must be tall enough to see over the top of the gondola railing (usually seven years of age and older). Additionally, we are unable to fly pregnant passengers due to insurance requirements. If you have any additional concerns regarding physical limitations we recommend consulting with your doctor prior to booking your flight.
​
After the Flight
Immediately following the flight and subsequent pack-up of the equipment we will have a celebratory toast with a wonderful bottle of champagne (non-alcoholic beverages will also be available).
​
What Will this Once In a Lifetime Experience Cost Me?
Exclusive flight rates are as follows - because the Waste Management/Phoenix Open is an annual event with limited capacity, our flights are exclusive and very limited. Our rate, per passenger (adult/child) is $295/per person with a capacity of three to four (3 - 4) passengers per flight (depending on weight and ambient temperature). For additional information or to book a flight please call (480) 434-5347. Please leave a message and one of our staff will return your call/inquiry within 24 hours.
