We took a 10 passenger float plane in Ketchikan to Neets Bay where we saw approx. 10-12 black bears..........My husband was "co-pilot", I however, was in back, where it was very stuffy and hot. I was to the point of checking out the emergency "bag", when we had a smooth landing. I would do it again, but I enjoyed the helicopter ride much more. Enjoy!
There is a variety of planes with my favorite the Beave which seats 6 but they sometimes use a middle seat- yuck. They can run anywhere from 4 to 10+++
