Refund

Full refund in case of cancellation due to weather following Transport Canada regulations and decided by the pilot in command, except for any fees charged by banking institutions, in accordance with our general terms and conditions.

What is the best time of day for scenic flights?

 

It is impossible to predict the weather in advance. We like morning and late afternoon flights... Generally, a cloudy sky can enhance contrasts... rain showers create rainbows! Furthermore, panoramic flights are from 8am to 5pm.

How much time should be reserved in advance?

As soon as possible, since the flight is refunded in case of bad weather according to the general conditions. A cancellation insurance is offered in other cases during the online booking process. 

Will we be alone in the seaplane?

No, unless it is privatized, that is to say, buying 75% of the seats and request it according to availability.

Pregnant Women and Baby?

There is no contraindication as such if you are expecting a happy event unless you have personal restrictions. A child under 2 years old is not considered a passenger and must be on the lap of an adult, just like on a commercial flight, so it is free for him.

Our children and grandchildren have been on board from the first months, the only problem is that they have become pilots!

Person with Reduced Mobility?

For more than twenty years we have always made sure to make seaplane activities accessible to everyone. We take our time, we put in the means, but we don't leave anyone behind.

Furthermore, we make sure that our facilities are accessible to all and we work with Keroul to always improve ourselves. Do not hesitate to contact us.

Passenger Weight?

Each seat is limited to 300Lbs/140kg by design. If you exceed these conditions or have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact us.
 

"

Are flights guided?

Certainly all flights are commented in French or English, and each passenger has a headset and a window. The pilot is also there to talk to you but give him a chance during take-off and landing!

What is the capacity of seaplanes?

In 2023, there will be 9-passenger and 3-passenger seaplanes. The helicopter is 3-passenger.

How long does it last?

We sell itineraries that you can view on the website (Nature, Park, Beautiful Lakes and Adventure) which all fly over the Mauricie National Park at least.

Times vary depending on the type of seaplane used as some (the most modern) are almost twice as fast as others.

How much time do I need to arrive in advance?

At least 15 minutes before the indicated time because there is a safety briefing before boarding, then the boarding procedures, the mandatory life jackets in seaplanes and the quay maneuvers ...
 

It should be noted that 99% of delays are due to passengers late on previous flights, which is why we are quite rigorous in the proper functioning of activities.

Can we eat here?

There is no restaurant but the site is the perfect place for a picnic. There is coffee on site and some drinks.

How many seaplane companies offer these tourist activities?

There are several, but Hydravion Aventure Inc. is the undisputed leader in terms of quality of services, service, reception, fleets of state-of-the-art seaplanes to meet the demands of sustainable development, quality of personnel, hydrobase site, etc.

What makes Hydravion Aventure Inc. a leader in sustainable development?

Boarding an aircraft of our company will have less impact on the planet than doing it elsewhere because HA has set itself the mission of highlighting the 100ha of the hydrobase forest (a real carbon trap), acquiring a new, modern fleet emitting much less GHGs than the fleet of our competitors from the 50s-70s and having a responsible conduct in all points (waste, heating, lighting, new buildings etc.)"

Is Seaplane Activity Harmful to the Planet?

As you will see, Canada is 90% uninhabited and without a road network. The seaplane is the only way and the most respectful to reach and fly over these sublime landscapes... no need for roads or infrastructure, after our passage or stop on a beach, nature takes back its rights 100%"

Are the seaplanes of Hydravion Aventure Inc. less polluting?

These are 2015-2023 models, capable of using SAF fuels that emit 80% less GHGs than a conventional fuel, they consume less...Can you imagine still driving cars from the 50s?
