Safety

Safety is our top priority. We have operated flights since 1986 without a single passenger incident. Our crew members will provide any necessary guidance and ensure that our flights can be completed in a safe and efficient manner. Please respect the crew members and their decisions throughout the flight.

Sunwest Aviation is an ARGUS Platinum and IS-BAO Stage 3 approved charter operator. Whether for personal or corporate purposes, it is important that your due diligence verifies the reputation and safety record of the operator you choose to fly with.

What to Wear

The climate on Sunwest Aviation aircraft is controlled and comfortable. During the winter months, we recommend dressing in warm layers and wearing appropriate footwear as boarding the aircraft will require walking on to the Sunwest ramp, which is outside. Please consult with your flight coordinator prior to departure if you have specific questions about clothing for your flight.

Luggage

The amount of luggage that can be brought onboard as carry on or checked into the luggage/cargo area of an aircraft will depend on your aircraft and trip. We will work with you to provide solutions and accommodate luggage as necessary. This includes special items such as ski equipment, golf bags, and other irregular sized items. Please limit each checked bag to 23 kg (50 lbs.); if you have more than 23 kg, please split that in to multiple bags. Your flight coordinator will discuss any limitations and solutions with you prior to departure.

If you are are travelling as part of an organization, your company may have additional requirements on luggage and permitted items. Please contact your company’s travel manager if you have any questions.

Please review the permitted items list for an overview of what you can bring onboard and in your luggage.

E-Bikes and small vehicles powered by lithium batteries in excess of 160Wh, or other vehicles with batteries of lower Wh ratings that cannot be appropriately secured and to prevent inadvertent activation in flight, are not permitted on Sunwest Aircraft (contact us for potential cargo flight options). Such devices are not considered “mobility aids” under current regulations. Examples of such equipment are air wheels, solo wheels, hoverboards, Segways, balance wheels, e-bikes or similar.

Carry-On Baggage

All carry-on baggage must be within the acceptable size and weight limit for your aircraft. Carry on must be stowed during takeoff, landing, and any period of turbulence. Depending on your trip, additional restrictions may be required. These will be communicated to you during your trip planning.

If you are travelling as part of an organization, your company may have additional requirements. Please contact your company’s travel manager if you have any questions.
