Jesse took us out to the blackened lava fields and over the volcano to where the lave flowed into the sea and gave us a running commentray during the whole trip. The video shot during our flight is amazing but hard to do justice to the experience. ![]() We did the Deluxe Tour in October 09 with Jesse as out pilot and the experience was almost indescibable.

A ' Sorry folks, no whales today' would have been nice. But again, no description as to why we flew over the water all of a sudden, and then back inland. We did not, as the lava was not flowing on that particular day which is fine, but the pilot did not say anything like 'sorry folks no lava today' so it left me wondering for the duration of the trip, did we skip the lava? Additionally at one point he flew out over the water, and he was looking really hard, I assume he was trying to spot a whale.
