Returns, exchanges and cancellation

Unused Experience Vouchers can be returned within 30 days for a full refund to the original purchaser, no questions asked.

If you have any unused Experience Vouchers, you can exchange them for anything else in our marketplace, no matter when. If you choose an experience that's more expensive, you'll need to pay the difference, but if you choose one that costs less, you'll receive a credit towards your next booking.

No refunds are allowed once the experience is booked, but you can reschedule up to 72 hours before your experience, for a date within a year of the original booking. To reschedule, contact the experience provider directly. If you need to reschedule more than once, a fee of $100 will apply. No-shows or rescheduling less than 72 hours in advance means losing the value of your experience.

In the event of inclement weather, your experience will be canceled, and you can reschedule directly with your pilot.
