Very well run activity. We booked independently of cruise ship but had same prompt pick up from cruise terminal in Cairns. Well explained safety briefing, friendly pilot Spencer who gave informative commentary throughout flight. Wonderful fly pass of reef areas and small islands off the coast. We were blessed with a clear day. Definitely recommend
Cancelled my flight last minute due to not enough people.

They cancelled my flight at the last minutes. The excuse is not enough people. It’s unacceptable reason.
Wow!

So beautiful. We had perfect weather and an amazing flight. Our pilot was very sweet and experienced. I felt safe with her. There was minimal turbulence views were stunning. I have some great photos and videos. Only wish we could have kept flying for longer.
