Advice Drones??

Helping my sister out with her post!! She posted on fb and received a lot of rude responses😞

“Trying to bring my small drone to use at the beaches for some nice aerial photos. Do I have to fill out the permissions and all the stuff I’m reading online? I see some people do and don’t but I’m just trying to get some info on others experiences.”

More info: she travels quite often to many different places and bought a drone while in Thailand recently. She likes to visit secluded areas for pictures and videos, she’s just looking for the do’s and don’ts of drone use. Any help is appreciated! ◡̈

If I remember from our time there, you need permission from the government and the exclusion zones are pretty lengthy. It struck me as being quite onerous. Good luck and I hope your sister enjoys herself. Barbados is a wonderful place.

Thank you so much! I don’t believe she will be taking it. It was better to ask around than to just go ahead with it. The application process did entail a lot. I still look forward to the phone pictures she’ll be taking!
