Description

Operating out of a Glendale check-in facility with FAA-certified pilots, the operator has run flights across the Southwest since 1983. Outings include both year-round sunrise and seasonal sunset options in shared or private configurations, with shuttle transport handling transit to the launch site. The experience starts on the ground as the crew sets up the rig before lifting off into the serene desert air.

Flyers must be at least 5 years old, and flights are not permitted during pregnancy.
