Payments Terms 

When making a booking please allow three days to enter our booking schedule. Then as the time nears, the various meteorological sites are consulted and mixed in with local knowledge to produce ‘the day’. It’s a formula that’s worked phenomenally well for us at this point, with no trip having to be cancelled.When you book we ask for a 20% deposit of the charter to confirm. Once a deposit is paid the trip is then confirmed and the dates are secured. Until the deposit is paid dates are available. We ask for the remaining balance to be paid in full prior to departure of the charter.

We require  20% of the overall price of the charter as a deposit.
