  • A truly terrible experience! Extremely serious racial discrimination! I strongly advise against any Asian person making

    An extremely bad experience! On the day of our departure, we arrived at the pick-up point in advance but found no vehicle to pick us up. After making a call, we were informed that our boarding time had been changed, but no one had notified us (neither by email, phone nor text message). Eventually, we were forced to take the afternoon flight which was extremely reflective, resulting in a very poor experience as we couldn't see anything due to the reflection and the low tide. Afterward, when we lodged a complaint, the other party had a very bad attitude and offered no apology for changing the time without notice. This is a serious case of racial discrimination! I do not recommend any Asian to make a reservation here!

    I did this flight this morning with my partner , the pilot was amazing and the staff were very friendly. We had the most amazing views over the Whitehaven beach and the Great Barrier Reef was truly amazing. The most crystal clear waters! 100% recommend doing ! Also loved the experience of being in a tiny plane over the Island.
