Floatplane:

We take care of all floatplane reservations for our guests
between Queen Charlotte City and Rose Harbour.

Also available between RH/Prince Rupert and RH/Port Hardy

How our floatplane prices are set up:
Our prices are designed to entice you to fly on certain days to minimize floatplane charters.
When we charter floatplanes and organize different groups, we must take in consideration the size of the floatplanes and the number of passengers. This is why we have a price list which reflects the different costs and possible combinations. A few basic rules apply:

The larger your group, usually the cheaper it is, depending on floatplane capacity and requirements.
The longer you stay at the guesthouse, the cheaper it is.
The more flexibility you have for your dates, the better.

Departure Time may change!
We have no control of possible unforeseen rescheduling by the floatplane airlines.

Bring all your gear in medium size bags the size of a large day pack or duffle bag on the floatplane. This will increase the load volume carrying capacity of the floatplane. Large suitcases are not recommended! The floatplane airline has a small storage room for things you don't need to take with you while in Rose Harbour.

Because of the unpredictable weather conditions on Haida Gwaii:
We highly recommend you to arrive on Haida Gwaii the day before you are scheduled to arrive in Rose Harbour. We also recommend you leave Haida Gwaii 24 hours after your scheduled time to leave Rose harbour. Jet planes, floatplanes and ferries sometime get delayed in the summer too. In the winter, it happens a lot!
Floatplanes do get rescheduled 1 or 2 times during the season due to weather conditions. Flight will be rescheduled by the airline according to their schedule and as soon as the weather allows.

If you get stuck because the floatplane cannot fly due to weather..

If you get stuck in Rose Harbour, you may need to rebook your transportation from Haida Gwaii to back home. We can do it for you from Rose Harbour. It will probably involve re-booking fees from the airline carrier.
If you miss your floatplane from Queen Charlotte City to Rose Harbour (DON'T!!!):

You probably will lose your deposit for our chartered floatplane flight you missed.
We will have to charter another floatplane and you probably will have to pay for the full cost of it.
This situation can cost you a lot of money.. Don't miss the floatplane!!!

Listed prices DO NOT include 7% Goods and Service Tax (GST).

Floatplane prices on the following list are to give you a general idea of the costs involved. Many factors like time of the year, existing floatplane schedule and the size of your group will affect the price. Please contact us for a price quote and we will give you an exact price when we know all the details and needs for your holiday with us.
