Planpraz:
Winter: 10h,11h,12h,13h,14h,15h. It is usually best in the early afternoon.
Summer: 8h45,9h45,10h45 usually offer the nicest flying conditions: 8h45 offers the smoothest conditions and from 9h45 is more thermic allowing us to climb up above take off.
During the late Spring & Summer, flights for lighter children, heavier or elderly passengers may require specific flight times.
Children (or under 45 kg passengers) must fly early (usually 8h45 or 9h45 for Brevent flights) before the wind increases. This does not apply in the winter. Heavier (above 80kg are usually better to fly from 10h45 onwards)
Our absolute maximum male weight limit in the summer is ax 95kg (female 80kg) but you must be particularly athletic once above 80 kg (70 kg female).
In the winter, as long as passengers can run effectively these weight limits do not apply except for Aiguille du Midi flights.
Do not wait until the last day of your holiday to book – in case poor weather causes postponement.

Deposits / modification charge
We try to avoid asking for advance payment or deposits but occasionally (usually for groups or specific bookings or at certain times of year) we are obliged to do so – we will advise you at time of booking if this is the case. We have been let down badly on numerous occasions by certain age groups of certain countries so regrettably we now sometimes have to ask for advance payments.
If you need to cancel, we will refund in full (less any eventual card fee charges) if you let us know no later than 48 hours before the flight.
We refund the advance payment or deposit in the case of us having to cancel a flight due to adverse weather.
Lift tickets are not included in our prices. You can purchase lift tickets from the lift ticket desks just before meeting your pilot.
