Positives:

  • Lounge facilities: Complimentary armchairs, free Wi-Fi, and washrooms at the Vancouver Harbour Flight Centre.
  • Central location: Located in downtown Vancouver near waterfront restaurants and shops.

Challenges:

  • Weather dependency: Strong winds or rain can delay or cancel flights; check forecasts and remain flexible.
  • Turbulence: Floatplanes can be bumpy; sitting near the nose reduces motion.

A truly memorable experience! I went on a short scenic tour over Vancouver and I loved it. The crew were very kind and helpful, particularly with boarding and alighting the aircraft with my sight loss. The flight was extremely enjoyable and the views were mesmerising. A must-do, unique experience when visiting the city.

Wearing the headphones and listening to air traffic control added to the experience, and the views were some of the ...

From above, we had a stunning aerial view of downtown Vancouver, Stanley Park, and the diverse landscapes stretching out into the suburbs. Takeoff and landi...
