Altitude is the constraint. Infant and child seating is set by the operator and confirmed before payment. Be aware of altitude sickness on the high pads. Check the tour page, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com.

Cancellation follows the policy shown when you book — currently free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. No-shows and changes inside 24 hours are charged in full. If the operator cancels for weather, you are rebooked or refunded as shown when you book.

High-altitude helicopters are load-limited. The operator sets seating and may split a group for the high pads. Provide accurate dressed weights when you book, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com. Emergency oxygen is carried on these flights.

If weather prevents the flight, you are offered another time or a refund as shown when you book.
