What to Expect on Your First Flight
Weight limits, what to wear, and why open-cockpit beats a closed cabin for photography.
You meet your pilot on the ground for a short briefing: seat, belt, headset, and how the flight will feel. Then you taxi out, climb, and the coast opens under an open cockpit — wind, light, and a clear view past the frame.
- Comfortable clothes, closed shoes, and a light layer
- Share passenger weights when booking so we confirm balance
- Secure phones and cameras with a strap — open air, real wind
Closed cabins mute the place. Open-cockpit keeps the horizon honest for photos and the sensation of flying low over Guanacaste. Nervous first-timers are normal — we talk through every step before wheels leave the ground.
