How many people are allowed on each flight?
Each flight can hold one, two or three passengers. Upon reserving a flight time, KCAC must know the total party weight to ensure weight and distribution standards are upheld to KCAC’s and the FAA’s stringent safety guidelines. While we want everyone to enjoy their evening, passenger safety is of our utmost concern.
How much notice does KCAC need in order to schedule our flight?
KCAC would like at least 24 hours advance notice in order to schedule pilots, limo drivers, and / or confirm dinner reservations. Keep in mind that Friday and Saturday evenings fill up quickly and that the Plaza Lights shut off on Sunday, January 17, 2010. So the sooner reservations are made the better.

For packages that include limo transportation, customers can choose to have the limo pick them up at their desired location and take them to the airport, or they can have the limo pick them up after the flight.
What if the weather is bad?
KCAC will do its best to provide as much notice as possible if flights need to be cancelled due to inclement weather. If the pilot determines that conditions are not conducive to flying, KCAC will work with the customer to reschedule the flight for another time.
