Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at durangoflighttours@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Our home base is Animas Airpark inn Durango, Colorado, but we often operate out of other airfields. 


Yes, we operated year-round. Feel free to give us a call or an email.


Yes, children can take Durango Flight Tours. Children under two fly free of charge. We do appreciate advance notice when children will be traveling. Children ages 2 to 12 qualify for a reduced fare.


Upon purchasing a tour package, most people take an Uber to arrive at the Animas Airpark at the proper time. If you have a car, we’ll see you there and send you locations for parking depending on which airfield we’re at.


There’s no lifts or ramps to the aircraft, so if we can get the customer in the plane with some assistance, there’s no issue with needing a wheelchair in the plane.


1.5 hour tours are the most popular. 


Passenger should dress as if they were going for a walk. Comfortable clothing and sunglasses will enhance the experience. If you think you might be cold, bring a light jacket.


Most of our flights do not go over 12,000 feet. You do not want to be too high above the mountain tops to get good pictures and videos. We can certainly travel at lower altitudes in most situations.


No, but always recommended reservations. Try to book your tour early in your stay in case we need to reschedule for weather.


Additional Information about Durango Flight Tours:

This is a four passenger plane, minus one for the pilot, so three people can go on a tour, depending on their weight. Just email or call us and we can figure it out - no problem.


Sometimes mother nature doesn’t cooperate and we can’t fly. In this event you’ll receive 100% refund.


People often ask me why doesn’t this cost more: We enjoy flying and getting to share our appreciation of aviation with everyone. Sometimes we do pancake breakfast and fundraisers for a local flying club. We will post about these events as they come up.


Sunrise and Sunset are both great times to go flying. Usually the wind has died down and that makes it nice and smooth which is perfect for taking pictures or videos.


Our plane gets inspections every hundred hours as mandated by the FAA from an FAA qualified inspector/mechanic. The pilot gets ongoing training, regular flight reviews, and has hundreds and hundreds of hours in this plane.


Some people ask if the plane is noisy. We provide noise canceling headphones that go over the ears and do an amazing job of making the cockpit very quiet and allowing you to talk to everyone on board.
