On the day of the flight, the pilot will send a text message and an email to all passengers. This will let you know whether or not the flight can proceed, and if so, exactly where and when to meet the pilot.
The pilot will send you this message no later than 3:00 PM before an evening flight. However, the message often comes earlier if possible, and we try to send it before noon if the weather forecast is clear. For a scheduled sunrise flight, the pilot will send the message no later than 9:00 PM the evening before.
