点评:We had a flight booked for the 29th of November. The weather was awful and I had little expectation that it would take place. I rang up to enquire if the ticket would be valid for the following day and was told that it was. The next day was glorious, however I did take the precaution of contacting the company to ensure that they would be flying. I was given assurances that they were. This was at 08:00. We immediately booked a taxi from our hotel to the heliport and we arrived within the hour. To our huge disappointment and intense annoyance we were told that all flights were cancelled until further notice due, apparently, to poor flying conditions! The weather if anything appeared better than it was when we originally rang. There was a half hearted apology and that was pretty much about. Whilst appreciating that safety is paramount it was hugely frustrating to waste $50 in taxis given that the weather appeared nigh on perfect. We should have been informed at the outset that a decision had yet to be made and therefore we could have made an informed choice of whether to go later. The attitude of the person at the desk left much to be desired. I was also unimpressed that she was wearing a face mask which is neither friendly, welcoming or frankly even necessary. Our experience seemed to epitomise our time at Niagara Falls. To paraphrase Dr. Johnson - "Worth seeing but not worth going to see"
