In today’s episode, we’re heading to Mt Cook Airport for one of the most unique things to do in New Zealand, land on a glacier in a ski plane in Mt Cook!
We join Inflight Experiences for their Mt Cook ski plane flight which includes about a 30-minute scenic flight over the Aoraki Mt Cook National Park and then landing on the Tasman Glacier. There’s nowhere else in New Zealand (and not that many places in the world) that you can experience landing on a glacier in a ski plane.
This scenic flight in New Zealand is in a small 8-seater ski plane flying to the upper snow fields of the Tasman Glacier in Mt Cook. We then get to enjoy spending about 20 minutes on the Tasman Glacier in the snow surrounded by epic alpine scenery before jumping back on this New Zealand ski plane flight back to Mt Cook Airport.
So what do you think of this ski plane New Zealand flight? Would you add the Mt Cook skiplane to your Mt Cook travel itinerary? LUK in the comments!

Mount Cook Glacier Skiing with Inflite Charters & Mt Cook Ski Planes & Heli Charters 2017
A Quick edit I made of this incredible experience right here in New Zealand. The day starts with a briefing about what to expect up on the mountain, and a chance to meet all of the people we are spending the day with. Its a really beautiful flight up which takes about 15 minutes.. The landing is one of the coolest experiences, almost as scary as flying into Lukla, but it feels so much safer :)
The day is awesome with the guides taking you along the glacier, stopping to show you crevasses and some of the epic sights. The skiing is brilliant, its all powder and 99% untouched, true champagne goodness! Lunch is served in the middle of the glacier with a nice cup of coffee to wash it down.
After a second flight up and a run back down the day is over, its a once in a lifetime that should not be missed if you are in New Zealand.

Description from Ski The Tasman website:
Explore New Zealand's largest glacier and its azure ice caves, while you make turns down our longest ski runs, at the heart of the Southern Alps. Professionally guided by Alpine Guides, skiing the Tasman Glacier is the classic Kiwi snow adventure.
Extraordinary Skiing for 'Ordinary' Skiers Expertise is not required. Skiers of 'average' ability can ski the Tasman Glacier. The runs are easy to moderate (blue graded), all on natural snow. The pace is relaxed, with time to soak up the grandeur of New Zealand’s highest mountains.
