Parking is completely free! Park out front and head in!
To keep everything running smoothly, we ask that you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled flight time. This gives us time to check you in and go over the safety basics before you board.
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.
