What will I see on this Arches flight?

A curated sweep of Arches’ greatest hits—Delicate Arch, the Windows Section, Courthouse Towers, and more. Flight paths flex for the best views on the day, so you get memorable angles without the crowds.

Is 30 minutes really enough?

For Arches, yes. From the air, the park is compact and highly visual—you’ll cover in one flight what could take a full day on the ground.

Best time of day for this flight?

Mornings (and late morning) deliver crisp light and typically smoother air—perfect for photos and first-timers.

Is this good for families and kids?

Absolutely. Kids under 12 book at the youth rate. Infants age 1 and under are free and can ride on a parent’s lap. The shorter duration makes it a favorite for younger children.

Where do we meet and when should we arrive?

Canyonlands Regional Airport (about 18 miles north of Moab). Plan to arrive 30 minutes before departure. Free parking is available at the airport.

How big are the airplanes? Will I get a window seat?

Small, fixed-wing touring aircraft configured for small groups—and every seat is a window seat.

Do we wear headsets? Will there be narration?

Yes. You’ll wear comfortable headsets with pilot commentary and clear views throughout.

What about bathrooms?

There’s no restroom onboard for this short flight. Restrooms are available in the terminal before and after.

I’m motion-sensitive or new to small planes—how will this feel?

This is our shortest flight and a great first step. Most motion-sensitive guests prefer morning departures for calmer air.

Any tips for great photos?

Wear darker tops (reduces window reflections), hold the lens close to the glass, and keep the flash off. Wide to mid-zoom works best up here.

"Great Way to See Canyonlands"

★★★★★
I called to book my One hour Scenic Flight of Canyonlands National Park on very short notice and the gal that I talked with was extremely helpful on getting me lined up on a flight in the next 2 days. If I could have been at the airport in 45 minutes of calling, I could have done it that day. However, I didn't want to rush so I ended up booking it for the next day. The pilot on my flight was very polite, personable and seemed quite knowledgeable of the area. It was a pleasure flying with him.
