The highlight of our trip!!!!!

Published on Nov, 2024

Right from the start this was amazing! We chose to fly from Manhattan which was well worth the small increase in price and we chose the 30 min flight, it was awesome. The staff we fantastic and the Pilot very friendly. The views were sensational and this was definitely the highlight of our 5 day trip. I would 100% recommend. Thank you to all.

Great job
