The jobs this software has to finish
The Weight Information Gap
Combined weight affects tandem flight. Couple books tandem. Arrive. Combined weight outside range. Can't fly together. Disappointment.
Collect weight at booking for all participants. Display weight limits clearly: 'Tandem limit: 400 lbs combined.' Guests know before arriving whether they can fly together.
The Tandem Question
Couple wants to fly together. Are they within combined weight limit? They didn't know there was a limit.
Weight limits stated at checkout: 'Solo: 90-230 lbs. Tandem: 180-400 lbs combined.' Tandem product collects both weights. Guests self-assess before booking.
The Triple Friends Challenge
Three friends want to fly together. Combined weight limit is strict. They didn't know until they arrived.
Triple option with clear weight requirement: 'Triple limit: 450 lbs combined.' Collect weights for all three. Guests know before paying whether it works.
The Wind Shutdown
Morning calm, afternoon windy. You need to pause operations. Guests are waiting. Communication needed fast.
Weather policy stated at booking: 'Operations may pause for wind. Reschedule available.' When wind exceeds limits, notify waiting guests. Offer reschedule or refund.
The Beach Walk-Up
Tourist walks by, sees parasailing, wants to fly right now. You're busy with scheduled guests. They walk away.
QR code at beach display: 'Scan to book.' Walk-ups book on their phones. See availability. Book the next open slot. Capture spontaneous demand without abandoning scheduled guests.
The Photo Package Miss
GoPro photos available as add-on. Upselling at the beach is chaotic. Guests decide at checkout much more easily.
Photo/video package as add-on during online checkout: 'Add GoPro package ($X).' Guests who want it buy it in advance. You know who's expecting photos before they board.
