Top Air Activities in New Zealand

Don’t skip the photo and video package they offer. I was hesitant, but the footage is absolutely worth it! It makes for great memories and you wouldn't want to miss those epic views.

I suggest checking the weather forecast the day before. If it looks cloudy or rainy, you might want to reschedule for a clearer day. I did, and it made all the difference.

I suggest booking your session online ahead of time. It saves you some money and guarantees your spot, especially in peak seasons. I learned the hard way when I showed up and had to wait way longer than expected.

If you're nervous don't worry – the instructors are super chill and help you out. But I recommend practicing some basic body positions beforehand; it really helped me feel more in control during my flight.

I think the earlier you can go the better—try to catch a flight around 8 AM. The views at sunrise are stunning, and you’ll dodge the crowds!

I recommend checking the weather before you go. The conditions can change fast—our flight got delayed due to clouds, so we waited a while. Don't waste your day if the weather looks dodgy!

I think it’s best to arrive at least 30 minutes early. The staff are super friendly and can answer questions or give you tips to make the experience even more exciting. I almost skipped this part and would have missed out!
