Good to know

Not recommended for pregnant travelers
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
If you are pregnant or have physical/mental limitations, please contact us before booking. Our team will be happy to advise you and try to enable you to fly if safety permits. The final decision regarding safe transportation rests with the pilot. Basically, shallow climbs and descents are carried out to keep pressure changes as low as possible. On the sightseeing flight over Munich and the Five Lakes Region, a flight altitude of 1,500 meters above sea level will not be exceeded. In the Alps the altitude is on average around 2,000 meters, but in the Zugspitze area it can briefly reach 3,250 meters above sea level.
