The Tasman Glacier is New Zealand’s largest glacier and flows from the Southern Alps south-east to the Mackenzie Basin. It is an unforgettable experience to experience this glacier both from the air and on top of it especially when the aircraft shuts down its engine.

CHILDREN & INFANTS:

Ages 0-10 years are charged children’s price, 10 years and older require an adult priced ticket.

INFANTS: The Civil Aviation Authority stipulates that we operate our aircraft in line with the manufacturer’s guidelines, one of these guidelines is that there is maximum number of passengers allowed on the aircraft, adult, child or infant. Therefore, when an infant is booked on our flights and sits on the lap of a caregiver, we are required to leave a seat free for this infant, thus the total maximum number of passengers remains the same. This is why you will see a charge for infants.
