Piss Poor Customer Service
The flight experience itself was excellent, and once in the air, everything met or exceeded expectations. Unfortunately, the customer service surrounding our booking left a lot to be desired.
One member of our group was ultimately unable to fly due to weight restrictions. While I understand that weight and balance limitations are an important safety requirement, this was not clearly communicated during the booking process. We entered everyone's weights online in advance, yet no warning, disclaimer, or indication was provided that there could be an issue.
When we arrived, staff verified weights and then privately informed our friend that they would not be permitted to fly. While I appreciate the discretion with which that conversation was handled, the situation that followed was disappointing.
Our group consisted of only three people. Rather than offering an earlier flight, a voucher, a partial credit, or discussing any reasonable accommodation, we were essentially told that our options were to proceed without our friend or forfeit the entire booking cost. That placed us in a very difficult position.
What was most frustrating was not the policy itself, but the lack of effort to find a solution. As a result, our friend experienced an embarrassing situation and then had to sit and wait for several hours while the rest of us completed the experience.
I fully understand that businesses must operate within safety requirements and established policies. However, I believe better communication upfront and a willingness to offer some form of compromise or accommodation would have gone a long way toward creating a more positive customer experience.
Overall, the flight was great, but the handling of this situation significantly impacted our impression of the company.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the flight experience itself and that it met your expectations once airborne. At the same time, we are sorry for the circumstances surrounding your group's reservation and understand how disappointing the situation must have been for everyone involved.
As noted in our booking terms and conditions, all passengers are subject to final weight verification at check-in, and FAA weight and balance requirements must be strictly followed for safety reasons. Unfortunately, these determinations can only be finalized once all passengers are present and weighed.
We understand your concerns regarding communication and appreciate your feedback on how the process was handled. While our team must operate within strict safety and operational requirements, we recognize that this created a difficult situation for your group and especially for the passenger who was unable to fly.
As a gesture of goodwill and in recognition of the inconvenience experienced, we issued a partial refund following your visit.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding that safety must remain our highest priority, and we thank you for sharing your experience.
All the best,
VA
