Unhurried flight. Fabulous landing spot and plenty of tine for photos on the glacia. We all really enjoyed it and feel lucky to have hit a clear weather window. We are all now on a diet!!!

Feeling humble in the area that is owned by the big mountains who deliver us life was an indescribable experience.

Take in sweeping aerial views of Fox Glacier and Franz Josef Glacier as you fly over rugged alpine terrain, icefalls and rainforest valleys before landing on snow for a memorable snowy touchdown.

Getting started

What to expect

Aerial views: Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views over New Zealand’s Southern Alps, glacier valleys and snow-capped peaks as you fly above both famed glaciers.

Snow landing: Touch down on a snowfield atop Franz Josef Glacier for photos, crisp mountain air and unforgettable scenery.
