When it comes to float operations for seaplanes, there are a few important things to keep in mind to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all passengers. 

Here are some key points to consider:

Dock Movement & Uneven Surfaces

Seaplane docks float on water and naturally shift with tides and waves. This movement can cause uneven transitions and potential tripping hazards. Please walk carefully and stay alert to changes in elevation.

Low or No Barriers

Unlike traditional airport terminals, seaplane docks may have minimal or no barriers between the dock and the water. Always be aware of your surroundings and take extra caution near the edge.

Fuel Equipment in Walkways

Fuel hoses and ropes may be present during aircraft servicing and could cross passenger paths. Watch for these obstacles and navigate around them safely.

Floatplane boarding requires a bit more awareness than conventional air travel. By staying mindful of dock movement, low barriers, and fueling equipment, you’ll help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for yourself and others.
