From booking, days leading up to, and the actual day and moment, a proposal can be a highly stressful experience. Let alone organising it for another country! But the professionalism, approachable staff and local knowledge they have, helped to ease MANY tensions!
The crew at Over the Top lived up to their name, not only for the experience itself, but also the customer service!
OTT are the only operator that can turn their engines off which was such a critical moment for a proposal. Our pilot found an amazing spot, took PLENTY of amazing photos to remember the occasion and was the best wingman!
The ground staff were friendly, and happy to answer my thousands of questions, from start to finish, they were exceptional!

You cancelled it and I have not had a refund and not sure how to get it. You cannot expect me to be satisfied can you?

A fantastic experience, our pilot was amazing, sharing lots of knowledge with us about the area, and also found us snow so late in the season for a snow landing and photos. Value for money and a memory that will stand out forever.

This was a great experience. We were upgraded to a longer experience and the staff and pilot were fantastic.

Family had a fantastic time. Our pilot David was an awesome guy and made us feel very safe. From check in to leaving, the whole Over The Top team were great. 10/10 experience

Such a memorable experience! Friendly staff, amazing pilots and had an amazing time sight seeing and flying on top of the mountain. Loved every bit of it and could not recommend enough!

Fantastic to hear, thank you so much for such a wonderful review. We'd love to see you come out for another flight when you are next in our region.

The flight was really "remarkable". We enjoyed this short, but really awesome tour up to the Remarkables. We hope to do this again in the future.
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Wonderful to hear, we'd love to show you one of our other experiences, perhaps one of our most popular trips, the 'Fiordland Highlights' next time, one of the best ways to see Milford from above.
Thanks for choosing to fly with us!
