This was such an incredible adventure. I took my girlfriend as a surprise when in Galveston and this did NOT disappoint. I was excited the second ai got the the airport and saw this big beautiful plane through the windows. it is such a cool idea to fly down and around the island and see it from a different perspective. This was well worth the wait and price. I highly recommend it. Emma took AMAZING care of us. She is a great pilot and very informative. She told us all about the plane and what we had in store for the trip. Thank you Emma!! We opted for the smoke and the video as well. I recommend it. We will be back for a longer trip next time and of course will ask for Emma.
