We had a wonderful experience celebrating my wife's birthday. Given the unpredictable rain that South FL has, I was concerned of my surprise plans being rained out, and I was messaging with the company often to ensure of our flight date/time and they were promptly responsive, which I appreciated. Our pilot was extremely professional and respectful. We were welcomed at the lobby, the flight was amazing and smooth, champagne provided was delicious, photo shoot done and videos taken. Needless to say my wife and I were extremely pleased. We would highly recommend this lovely experience to everyone!! 5 Star experience!!
