What To Wear
What if my flight is cancelled due to weather?
What do I need to bring?
Why is scuba diving not allowed 24 hours before and after this flight?
Is there an age limit?
Is there a weight limit?
Helicopter weight and balance changes with every flight because of passenger weight, pilot weight and length of flight (fuel weight). It is important that the experience provider has the accurate body weight from every passenger. FAA regulations require all passengers and their carry-on items to be weighed at time of check-in. If a standard airline seat belt is too small or you weigh over 240 pounds you may be required to purchase a comfort seat on the FX STAR helicopter.
