Une expérience incroyable !

Il n’y avait pas assez de monde sur le vol de 10h30 que j’avais réservé. Mais pas de soucis, the line helicopter m’a replacé sur le vol de 13h30 sans problème. Une journée avec un magnifique soleil et quelle sensation de se poser sur un mont enneigé ! Le vol de 35 min passe vraiment super vite

On Arrival at the company involved, this company made the decision to cancel the flight due to the situation. I was the only one who had a booking. I requested a refund in full due to the non-operational condition.
