We ask all guests to arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled flight time for a short safety briefing. Then, you’ll be ready for your 30-minute scenic flight over the glaciers and peaks of Alaska’s Chugach Mountains.

    You’ll have a great view from every seat, so sit back and relax as you enjoy the incredible scenery. Your professional pilot will provide knowledgeable commentary during your journey. After the completion of your flight, our van will be waiting to provide a return transfer to your destination in Girdwood or Anchorage.
