For that reason, you as the customer have the option to pay for the minimum two fares for the Cessna Aircraft or the minimum of five fares to operate the Beaver aircraft. Or you as the customer can agree to be flexible on time, date etc to allow for Van City Seaplanes personnel to arrange additional passengers to fly with you to the same destination or alternate destinations close by.

    These terms and conditions represent an attempt by Van City Seaplanes to offer lowest cost Seaplane travel possible for you the customer. We appreciate your business and your choice to travel with us.
