    Deflating and Sad

    , Jun. 2022
    This was pre planned and paid for my daughters 9th birthday. This was going to be her first time EVER on a plane, so we drove up from Portland 3+ hours. We sat around for almost 2 hours at our gate and nothing…. Crickets. We watched multiple parties come and go. Finally I called and was told the pilot actually cancelled his flights for the day and nobody let us know. Sorry Sir was the answer. Anyway, we drove back to Portland. No plane for my daughter this year. Happy Birthday to her!!

    Gorgeous setting at Lake Washington - we saw a bald eagle!! Our pilot Wayne was so knowledgeable and cool 😎 the views over Seattle were incredible, and the Olympic mountain ranges/Mount Rainier were spectacular! You can have a nosey at some famous houses, UW and fly through the skyline! 100% the best way to see Seattle!

    The flight and the experience was wonderful. Our pilot, Marco, was personable, professional, and responsive to all questions and requests. He safely took off, flew around the Seattle area showing and explaining the sights we were seeing, then safely landed. I had never flown in a seaplane and at 76 I figured it was high time I did so. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you. The only glitch was attempting to find the place to meet the pilot. The address and directions initially emailed to me were to the wrong airport (not Kirkland which is where I expected to go). That was clarified with an exchange of emails. The address listed for the Kirkland landing area was the address of a Spa. They had no idea what I was talking about. I walked to the water and was unable to find any signage which was helpful. I went to an event planning office in the complex. They were most helpful in making phone calls to get directions. One of the people in the office walked with us to the gate. We stood in the rain waiting for the pilot. You are certainly not responsible for the rain, however the directions could have been clear and the address could have been correct. Marco did an excellent job of dealing with 2 wet women who had difficulties finding the correct place to meet. The experience itself quickly overcame the difficulties.

    This was my 2nd time flying with Seaplane Scenics, and this time with my sister. Also had Capt. Scott as our pilot and he was amazing, super pleasant to fly and overall chat with! He made sure the entire flight was comfortable. The whole experience was great as usual and my sister who flew on a cessna for the first time had a really good time. I’ll surely be back again soon! Wouldn’t wanna fly elsewhere.
