ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTiONS
From what age can a child go on a winter Feather tandem flight?
Feather Flights are open to children from age 6. It is important that the child is willing and able to follow the pilot’s instructions.
Why do you ask for red-run skiing ability?
This requirement is there for safety if the flight is cancelled at the last minute. If the weather does not allow take-off, the child must be able to ski back down a red run confidently, on their own or under the supervision of an adult.
What equipment is needed for a Feather Flight?
For a Feather Flight, your child should be equipped as for a normal day’s skiing: full ski outfit (jacket, trousers, gloves), skis and boots, ski goggles and a valid lift pass. A specific flying helmet is provided by the instructor.
