Description
See Mount Etna from the air on a private sightseeing flight in a four-seat light aircraft (3 passenger seats). You meet your pilot at Calatabiano airfield, get a short safety briefing and walk to the aircraft.
Once airborne, the pilot flies a route over Mount Etna's summit craters, the Valle del Bove, Taormina and the Ionian coast, adjusted on the day for weather and air-traffic control. The whole aircraft is booked for your group only, up to 3 passengers, and everyone gets a window seat. Headsets let you talk to the pilot and ask about what you see below.
Bring your phone or camera: the windows give great angles for photos and video. After landing there is time for photos with the aircraft.
