Running late? No problem—up to a point. If you’re more than 20 minutes late, there’s a $50 late fee. We totally get that things happen, but arriving on time helps us stay on schedule and keeps the experience awesome for everyone!
Make sure to bring the credit card you used to book your flight along with a valid ID that matches the name on your booking and card. We’ll need these for verification before you can board. If you don’t have them, we won’t be able to get you in the air, so double-check before heading out.
