Sorry guys when applying, your party size is for all or nothing. so 2-3-4-6. thats it. I.E if you have two in your party its ytwo for all of your choices . It would be a admin nightmare. anyother way. But maybe in time who knows. Roy

Helicopter is a more reliable type of transport in dodgy Fiordland weather. Basically, a chopper might still be able to get you out (or in for that matter) when the plane can't. A plane can't slow down to a crawl, pop the door open and fly sideways just above the ground through a fogged in mountain pass
I have had a truly amazing flight over the Wap country on a fine day in the float plane tho.

We priced options for flying into Fiordland next year, further south than the Whapiti blocks. Southern Lakes was cheaper than Wings and Water plus the access limitations of fixed wing.
