2.0Matt is delightful and professional. Nice food/champagne toast Winds are tested before each flight and there may be cancellations. Basket was overcrowded I could not rotate my slender body in a circle. The basket landed on its side.we had to squat And hold our backs to a side. We hit and skidded 3-4 times. And finally landed! Then crawled out of the basket. Not what I expected at all. Thankfully no one was injured!
Beautiful experience
