“What should I bring along for my flight?”
It’s a good idea to wear a hat, sunglasses and don’t forget to put on that sunscreen. The plexiglass canopy does let the UV rays in.
“Do I need to book in advance?”
Yes, booking in advance is a good idea to avoid disappointment.
“What if I book ahead and the day of my flight it is raining?”
Call ahead to check the weather in Pemberton. Often the weather in Pemberton is far better than Vancouver and Whistler as well. If, however, the weather is not favorable for flying you will not be required to pay any fees.
“Do I need to do anything to contribute to the flight?”
No, the flight is completely handled by our qualified pilot. If, however, you are on a longer flight, you can ask the pilot to try your hand at the controls.
“Any age restrictions?”
7 years of age and up. The child must be confident and comfortable enough to go up
unaccompanied by their parent or guardian.
"Do you have a cancellation policy, in the event of bad weather?"
Although the weather in Pemberton is not typically an issue, if you are heading from a farther distance we recommend calling
the evening before or morning of your scheduled flight just to confirm. If Pemberton Soaring Centre does foresee that the
weather will be an issue and we won't be able to fly, we will reschedule your flight at your convenience, with no charge. In
the case that you will require to cancel your flight we will require 24 hour notice, less than 24 hours cancellation notice,
will be subject to full payment.
If you have any other questions, or would like to make a reservation for a flight, please don't hesitate to contact us!
