Pilot in Command (PIC) Authority

• The PIC of the aircraft you charter will be the final arbiter as to whether or not all or part of any flight shall proceed, and in what manner and to what destination, having regard to the prevailing operational circumstances and any applicable regulatory requirements.

• All passengers must obey any and all instructions given by the PIC at all times. If any passengers refuse to follow the instructions of the PIC, the PIC may terminate the charter service (including landing at the nearest airport) with no further services being provided.

Baggage

• Passenger baggage weight is limited for flight safety and varies between aircraft types. Specific advice on baggage weight limits will be provided at the time of booking. Baggage is generally limited to one soft bag per passenger weighing no more than 10kg in Piston aircraft, 15kg in Turbo Props and 18kg in Jets• Items determined by the PIC to be of excessive weight or size will not be permitted on the aircraft.

• Dangerous Goods as defined by the International Air Transport Authority and Civil Aviation Safety Authority are not allowed onto the aircraft. Please ask WAS if you are not sure what constitutes Dangerous Goods.

• In the event of an aircraft or crew being unavailable at any time, for any reason, WAS will make every effort to provide a replacement but cannot guarantee the substitute aircraft will be of the class or type specified in the booking or that a substitute aircraft will be provided.

• WAS reserves the right to sub-contract charter services to another licensed operator, cross hire aircraft, crew and other staff without prior notice.

• WAS will charge you a cleaning fee of $500.00 at the end of the charter if, in our opinion, any aircraft requires a major clean before the aircraft can be used for another booking due to poor cabin conduct or unfitting behaviour.
