Flying high and Still on Cloud…read more I Love you, Captain Reed. Thank you for one of the greatest highs we could have ever experienced. It's going to go down as one of most memorable and unforgettable adventures! When we're old and grey, will still look back and remember flying the bright beautiful blue skies with you as our Captain. From plane to sea, you get the best of both. Not only did we get to enjoy a ride over the water passing boats, kayakers and se life, we got to experience a 20 minute flight in the air overlooking Seattle. The views were spectacular! A special Thank you to Captain Reed. Our flight was private with just the Captain, my better half and myself, and him being a huge aviation lover, the Captain allowed him to co-pilot. Such a core memory. Not even Thank you's or words that comes close to the amount of gratitude I can express. Whether it's a special occasion or seeing Seattle from a different view, this is definitely a MUST. Infinity times I would do this again. Just Love. Absolutely LOVE. Happy Flying.

Soulless and inconsiderate small business. Do not get tricked by the official website's ticket and…read morepackage options. They are all arbitrary depending on the mood and the weather of the people who work there, including James (the man in charge). If you are a couple please note that you may be put into a plane with other people regardless of what plane and option you picked. You will not know about it until you get to the meeting point and one couple will not get to sit together. Thus, it may be better to look into other companies and there are others! If you are planning to go as a group, there are better and more professional establishments which are cheaper and/or same priced. The only saving point of this establishment is Mark (seaplane pilot) who made all the efforts to not only ensure that our experience on the air was great but also to redeem the Company. Overall, in the state where aviation is one of the major industries, there are better, more professional, and cost efficient companies and small businesses. Try them. They will have more respect and consideration for your experience. If you insist on booking from this establishment, exaggerate your weight to make sure that they cannot fly anyone with you.

It will be a birthday I will never forget.

To say I was anxious is an understatement. Every bad thought was going through my head. Every movie about a plane crash, every news article about a small plane or seaplane accident, every worst case scenario you can imagine. I was honestly questioning my life choices and wondering why I had agreed to do this. The first reason was my daughter. She flew with Harbour Air from Vancouver to Seattle, and she has the same flying anxiety that I do. She absolutely loved it and kept telling me, "Mom, you have to try it!" The second reason was that my friend and I only had 24 hours in Victoria. I didn't want to spend half the day driving to the ferry terminal, waiting, taking the ferry, and doing the whole process all over again on the way back. We wanted to maximize our time, so we decided to be brave and go for it. Honestly, right up until boarding, I was thinking about turning around and calling it a day. I had my noise-canceling AirPods ready, my anxiety was at a solid 100%, and I was trying not to panic. Luckily, I met a lovely lady who ended up becoming a friend, and she gave me a few tips to help when my anxiety started kicking in. The flight from Seattle to Victoria was honestly wonderful. The weather was beautiful, the views were amazing, and the pilot was a young gentleman who was an absolute sweetheart. Smooth takeoff, smooth flight, smooth landing. I couldn't have asked for a better first seaplane experience. The flight back was a little different. We had an older pilot, there was some fog leaving Victoria, and it was a bit rougher than the first flight. But that's weather, not the airline. We landed safely, and that's what matters. I also have to give a shout-out to the staff in both Seattle and Victoria. Every single person we dealt with was super nice, super chill, professional, patient, and helpful. Nobody made me feel silly for being nervous, and their calm attitude definitely helped. Would I do it again? Absolutely. Would I be nervous again? Probably. Would I still do it? 100%. The views alone are worth it. The time savings are worth it. And for someone who spent half the trip thinking about all the things that could go wrong, I ended up really enjoying it. So if you're anxious about flying on a seaplane like I was, take it from someone whose imagination is way too active you'll probably be just fine. And yes, I would do it again.

Thankfully, our pilot, James, was a jovial fellow with a good command of his craft. A short three minutes later I felt my pucker give way to a state of enrapturement at the Seattle skyline from several hundred feet in the air. There is a certain giddiness that comes from laughing in the face of your own mortality, especially with James on the mike. The time will fly by and before you know it, you'll be descending back to Boeing Field. It's so surprising to realize how little runway this plane needs in order to land.

First they rescheduled us from Friday to Saturday but with a week's notice, that was fine. Then they rescheduled us to a week later because the pilot was out of the country. The day of our ride, they texted me two hours before our flight to say the pilot was stranded in Spain and they had to cancel. I was shocked that they didn't know earlier than two hours before our flight that the pilot wasn't available. They offered a discount to reschedule, but by that time I was so fed up trying to work with them that I cancelled and my husband's 80th birthday gift from me was completely spoiled.

We were flying low enough to see the scenery of the area including a good look at the Seattle skyline. There were some clouds so the mountain view was not as clear as it would be on a sunny day.

That was an added bonus. Highly recommend this method of travel!

We got stuck in Seattle and missed our original transportation by car and ferry but Friday Harbor Seaplanes came to our rescue. Michelle was absolutely amazing and got us booked on the first flight out the following morning so we didn't waste another moment of our trip. She arranged a shuttle to pick us up at the hotel we booked which was also quite the task as many hotels were completely booked up but we finally found one and Friday Harbor Seaplanes accommodated us and got us to the airport and flew us in to Orcas Island. I was really impressed by our pilot and how well he flew the plane. I was a bit nervous and I tend to get motion sickness and he made the flight very enjoyable and even checked in with me during the flight to see how I was feeling. I felt he took slight turns a bit more slow and careful with me in mind and it was very appreciated. My friend also had her baggage delayed by Delta Airlines for 2 days and Michelle was so kind to try and help us by arranging for the airport to deliver the luggage to them so they could bring it to the Friday Harbor dock on one of their daily flights. Unfortunately Delta was being lame and they wouldn't do it, but the fact that Friday Harbor Seaplanes was willing to help us went above and beyond our expectations. What amazing customer service! I hope to one day visit the islands again and without a doubt I will use Friday Harbor Seaplanes again. They treated us like family!! Thank you! I wholeheartedly recommend this business. They are all great people and do an excellent job!

You also get to hear about the city's history and key industries. The ride overall is pretty smooth, and my husband, who gets motion sickness, was totally fine. The boat when docked can experience a little more motion, however, so your mileage may vary. We also found it easy to get seats with good views, and the guides were easy to hear anywhere on the boat.

A lot of it was about the downtown Seattle buildings, Space Needle, buildings and parks by the shore, the sea ports and many other cool facts along the way. I throughly enjoyed the hour long tour. The weather was also fantastic to take stunning pictures of the downtown, the mountains and the port. They also had a bar in second level where they served alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, pop corn and some small snacks. Prices were decent for it being a tourist activity. We liked both popcorn and the strawberry lemonade.
