We offer flights on Saturday and Sundays.
Morning flights meet at the launch site approximately 30 min. before sunrise and evening flights meet approximately 2 hours before sunset.

Flights are very weather dependent and launch and landing locations can change with every flight.

Flights from Waterloo, Valley, and Fremont are common, as these sites offer some of the most scenic routes along the Platte and Elkhorn River valleys, as well as an abundance of wildlife.

Flights last about an hour to an hour and 15 min. The typical time involvement is 3 hours. First flights are traditionally followed by a complimentary champagne (or sparkling cider) toast.

The rate for a 2-passenger flight is $375.00, no payment if there is no flight; you pay after you fly.

If you have a weekend in mind, please let us know and we can work with you to schedule your flight.
