Reservations

Reservations are required at least 30 days in advance. Hotel accommodations are sometimes difficult to get with short notice during weekends or summer months, so the longer in advance you book, the better off you’ll be. A $250 deposit is required at the time of reservation.

A 50% deposit is required 30 days before the departure date.

Full payment must be received within 3 days of departure.

We accept payment of deposits by MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or check. The final payment must be by credit card unless submitted far enough in advance for the check to clear our bank.

We reserve the right to cancel a reservation if payments are not made on time.

Cancellation Policy

We have a 30-day cancellation policy. We give full refunds for cancellations made more than 30 days before the departure date.

All deposits are forfeited for cancellations made fewer than 30 days before the departure date.

Weight Restrictions

Total passenger and luggage weight is limited to 550 lbs. Luggage size is limited by stowage space constraints. Each passenger will be allowed a small overnight bag, camera bag, and tripod.

Other Considerations

Walking distances of up to 3/4 mile are required at several locations. This trip is not recommended for people with health problems or special dietary needs, or people who have difficulty getting around. Trip starts and ends in Phoenix, AZ.

Passenger Responsibility for Adhering to Travel and Tour Schedules

Although some of the itinerary is flexible, allowing for some passenger free time at each destination, there are several instances where timeliness is vital for travel or tour purposes. These will be clearly indicated on the passenger’s itinerary. The passenger is responsible for adhering to these required times.

If the passenger’s tardiness results in a missed tour, there will be no refund for the cost of that tour. In addition, if tardiness results in any situation that requires additional out-of-pocket expenses to Flying M Air, the passenger will be charged for those expenses.

Flying M Air’s Responsibility in the Event of Problems Related to the Weather or Helicopter

Flying M Air will make every effort to conduct the excursion as outlined here, in its marketing material, and in the finalized itinerary provided to passengers before the start of the excursion. We cannot, however, be held responsible for changes in the itinerary due to weather or aircraft equipment problems.

Flying M Air’s pilot has final say over whether a flight can be completed in any condition. If a flight is canceled or postponed due to weather or mechanical problems, Flying M Air will cover the additional cost of any lodging or alternative transportation. In the event that tours are missed due to itinerary changes made by Flying M Air, Flying M Air will refund the cost of said tours.

In all instances where itinerary changes are required, Flying M Air will attempt to meet or exceed the quality of services it normally offers.

Important Note

This trip is not being offered as a guided tour. Instead, it is a series of charter helicopter flights, for transportation and aerial photography purposes only, packaged with lodging and tours offered by licensed tour operators at the destination location. Although the helicopter flights pass over and through some of the most incredible scenery the southwest has to offer, Flying M Air is not a tour operator in these areas and is not conducting the flights as tours.
