Do weather conditions affect flights?

Yes, all flights depend on weather conditions for your safety. If wind, rain, or visibility levels are unsuitable for flying, your tour may be rescheduled. Luckily, Puerto Rico enjoys year-round sunshine, so weather-related changes are rare.

Are there age or weight restrictions?

Yes — all passengers must meet standard aviation safety requirements. Children can join flights when accompanied by a parent or guardian, and all passengers must be securely seated with seatbelts fastened. Our team will confirm any specific requirements during booking.
