I flew on "Air Ventures Hawaii" today and really "got took" as they say. First from booking on Priceline, what was stated there and on the trip info simply was not what I got. To ad insult to injury I was placed on the left side of the plane behind the pilot and missed most of the sites. A family with a tot all of maybe 4 or 5 got the cherry seats on the right side. A girl about 8 inches shorter than me got to spread out in front with the pilot. A 4 or 5 year old (again amazed by this) gets the big window on the right in the middle. Her Mother getting the last good window on the right. There I am 6'2" 210 pounds, crammed in this tiny plane behind the pilot with a great view of the wing and white bar holding it on. One of the girls on the right side was kind enough to snap a few pictures for me and also thought it was foolish how they arranged us. The rest of the trip consisted of me sticking my arm over to where the tot was and trying to get pics and then finally shutting my camera off and giving up. The waterfall was the only thing the pilot circled back for, for me to see. I missed the entire Napali Coast which was the main thing I wanted to see. Oh there is Julia Roberts house and there is Pierce Brosnan's place. (The tot does not know who they are.) I will never know with my view of the ocean, wing, and white bar holding the wing on. This was absolute crap. Do yourself a favor and wait until you are here and book a helicopter tour. I have been sick at my stomach all day from this tiny plane and also just feel very ripped off. I cannot believe the pilot gave a tot a cherry seat and stuck me where he did either. A short girl getting to spread out in front. I had a 20 dollar tip ready but I left tipping nothing. I guess I will go blow 15 on a beer at the St. Regis where I am staying. Did not like the reference that it was foolish to spend 15 on a beer. What was foolish was this plane ride. I think I should get refunded as I have booked a copter tour tomorrow and have to drive all the way back to that side of the island to get a decent tour. The place I went to book another tour right after this said I would get a seat I wanted. They said they did not think that was right giving two of three people in a group, especially a little kid the good seats. They thought I probably only paid 60-70 though. Oh boy, I paid much more and got to watch a family make great memories while I sat in the worst seat on the plane. Not as advertised. Avoid at all costs! What a waste of a day and now I have to drive out of my way again for a decent tour. If you can't tell I am writing this while I am still mad. Just terrible. As if all this is not bad enough if you are on the right side, the plane still flies very very high. Not up close and personal at all like it was made out to be.
