Children and the Flight Deck

Babes-in-Arms (2 years of age and younger) are granted FREE admission when accompanied by a ticket holding parent/guardian to the VIP Flight Deck.

What About the Weather?

As most of you know, Niagara’s weather can be highly unpredictable, at best! When it comes to purchasing tickets … Please don’t rely on the weather forecast to help you make up your mind. Weather forecasting is a very challenging job and there are some great meteorologist. In our experience, “the forecast is not always reliable” for both good weather and bad. How many times have you seen a weather forecast that was completely wrong? Just because they forecast rain, doesn’t mean it’s going to rain!

Please Note – No VIP Ticket Refunds

This leads to a very important point. Unfortunately, we cannot offer refunds on Flight Deck or Preferred Seating tickets. Rest assured, though, that the airshow is a rain-or-shine event. You should know that all performers have high, low and flat shows that can safely accommodate for different types of weather. There are also going to be some extraordinary static aircraft on the ground.

We are committed to your privacy! For additional information, please review our privacy policy and terms of use.

Please note: Aircraft (especially military) are subject to operational requirements. If anything changes, we’ll let you know.

*Nominal ticket fees may apply.
