Seasonal (typically late April through early October).

All ages. Infants and children need their own paid seat; lap children are not allowed. Check the tour page, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com.

Cancellation follows the policy shown when you book — currently free cancellation up to 3 days before departure. No-shows and changes inside the window are charged in full. If the operator cancels for weather, or if your ship is late or misses the port, you are rebooked or refunded as shown when you book.

Everyone is weighed at the hangar, dressed, including clothes and boots. Give accurate weights when you book; under-reporting can cancel you with no refund. Shared flights: a plus seat (about $150 extra) applies around 260–299 lbs; 300 lbs and over needs a second seat. Private capacity can change with weight and balance.
