The restrictions

Physical
Walking on and off the aircraft.
Accessibility
All air operators are required by law to take into consideration where they seat passengers with disabilities, and whether passengers seated near emergency exits are able to assist with emergency evacuation if required. Where a passenger is able to physically assist in their own evacuation in the case of an emergency, with prior notification, we can make arrangements for them and their wheelchair to be carried on board our aircraft. We have found that where a passenger can stand with assistance, we can safely help them to negotiate the aircraft steps and seat them clear of the exits.
Carriage of passengers with a limited mobility in sightseeing aircraft presents unique challenges for both passengers and staff, and therefore please accept our sincerest apologies but it would be unlikely we are able to have you fly with us. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your circumstances and we can advise on an individual basis.
Unfortunately, not all the operators who we organise the Milford Sound Cruises with are not wheelchair friendly.
Pregnancy & Babies
Pregnant ladies are welcome, if you let us know during check out process, in the notes.
We would generally not recommend flying in the last 2-3 months of pregnancy as a precaution.
Children
Our child ages are 3-14 and infant age is inclusive of 2 years.

The common questions

Cameras are recommended, but carried at your own risk.
Dress for the weather – comfortable clothes, closed toe shoes are a must.
Bring a small bag to keep your belongings with you.
Please note that this activity is weather-dependent. Your flight will be confirmed upon arrival in Milford Sound. If the flight is cancelled due to weather conditions, you will return via the coach you originally used, and the cost of the flight portion of the activity will be refunded.
Our standard cancellation policy of written notice 48 hours prior for full refund applies for this activity. For more information please refer to our terms and conditions.
