Misty Fjords Floatplane Trips

Is it better to schedule one of these trips in the morning or afternoon? l was thinking one time might be less likely to be cancelled. I will be in Alaska the beginning of September. Thanks.

Makes no difference, you are not going to be able to predict- what the conditions are going to be on YOUR particular day. Although, there are plenty of reports on this board to go in the afternoon, every year I go on the first trip out, usually a 7am schedule, and guess what? I have not had one canceled, for probably the last 10 years. (I go EVERY trip) Sure, add to that, plenty of morning trips are canceled.

 

My point- schedule your flightseeing where it fits your time best. I prefer to put my time consuming touring, at the begining or end of my alloted time. Then there is time for other activities, rather than having it in the "middle" with little time before and after.
