Fly a helicopter yourself!

During the sightseeing flight, you can talk to the pilot through your headset. Be sure to keep your microphone close to your mouth. On exclusive sightseeing flights, the route can be customized to your preferences, provided it fits within the time frame. Of course, you’re welcome to take photos during the flight.

Unlike an airplane, a helicopter can land almost anywhere. Many sightseeing flights include a stopover in the mountains or at a restaurant. For exclusive sightseeing flights lasting 45 minutes or longer, a stopover is generally possible.

You can find more information in our passenger briefing.

We create unforgettable experiences—and good weather is essential for that. We’ll call you on the day of the flight (a few hours before takeoff) to let you know about the weather conditions. Together with you, we’ll decide whether or not to go ahead with the flight.

For the single-seat flights (departing from Bern-Belp every Sunday) to take place, the following conditions must be met:

• All seats on the helicopter are occupied or paid for
• weather conditions are favorable

If not all seats on the helicopter are filled, the flight will be rescheduled to a subsequent weekend (Saturday or Sunday) of your choice.

You can print our gift certificates immediately after placing your order (payment by invoice or online with a credit card). This means there is no delivery time. Can’t or don’t want to print the gift certificate? Contact us—we’ll send it to you via A-Mail so it arrives the next day.

Yes, every type of helicopter has a maximum takeoff weight that must not be exceeded. Factors such as the number of passengers, fuel load, air temperature, engine power, and flight time, among others, must be taken into account. The pilot is legally required to prepare a “load manifest” before the flight. This document includes, among other things, the individual weights of all passengers. When booking a helicopter flight, we therefore ask for the passengers’ weights and reserve the right to recommend a larger, more powerful helicopter if the maximum takeoff weight is exceeded. Please feel free to contact us directly for calculations regarding specific configurations.

For the Robinson R22 (used only for introductory flights and training), the limit is 95 kg per person.

For the Robinson R44, the average passenger weight is 95 kg per person, and for the Bell 505, it is 85 kg per person.
