Canada: Flight to the Northern Lights




See the Northern Lights at eye-level on a private jet flight in Canada.  Travelers desperate to see the Northern Lights can get up close and personal with the phenomenon on a new private flight in Canada. Passengers on board of AirNorth, Yukon’s Airline, should be able to see the lights shortly after take-off and at eye level.
.

The trip will run from 7 to 11 February 2019, with the flight taking off on either the 8 or 9 February.  The date will be chosen based on the Aurora forecast for the days, so passengers will have the best chance of getting optimal views.  The five-day trip will include “unique culinary components, industry-leading guest speakers, cultural events, optional day tours and more”, according to the airline.

Rare Opportunity
Since there are only 80 seats on the flight, it’s going to be a rare opportunity for travelers to take part.  A pilot project of the flight was held last year, and the passengers saw the lights just nine minutes after take-off – and they continued for three hours straight.  Not only that, once you hop on board of the Boeing B737, you will get to enjoy a celebratory gin from the Yukon Brewing company and the Canadian Aurora photographer Neil Zeller will assist with helping passengers take their own photos.
