Hawaii Helicopter Tour FAQs

How safe are helicopter tours in Hawaii?

Helicopter tours in Hawaii are generally safe, as they are regulated and operated by experienced pilots and tour companies. The pilots have extensive knowledge of local weather patterns, terrain, and flying conditions. Tour operators also follow strict safety guidelines and maintenance procedures to ensure the safety of their passengers. However, as with any type of transportation, there is always a certain level of risk involved. If you have concerns, do not hesitate to ask the tour operator about their safety record and procedures.
What are the weather protocols for helicopter tours in Hawaii?

Weather can be unpredictable in Hawaii, and tour operators prioritize passenger safety. If the weather conditions are deemed unsafe for flying, your tour may be rescheduled or canceled. In case of cancellation, most tour operators offer a full refund or the option to reschedule your tour. It’s always a good idea to have a flexible schedule and be prepared for potential changes due to weather conditions.
What should we wear for our helicopter flight?

We recommend removing earrings as they can interfere with the seal of your headset causing discomfort and decreased functionality of the earpieces. The tightly fitting headsets may also bend or damage certain styles of earrings. Please wear dark-colored clothing. Lighter clothing will cause a reflection in any windows and show up in your photos and the photos of other guests.
Is it worth it to get front-row seats on a helicopter tour?

Front-row seats on a helicopter tour typically offer better views and a more immersive experience. However, whether it’s worth the additional cost depends on your personal preferences and budget. Some people feel the extra expense is worth it for the unobstructed views and increased comfort, while others are satisfied with the views from the standard seats. If you’re concerned about motion sickness, front-row seats may provide a smoother ride. It’s essential to weigh the cost against your priorities and decide if front-row seating is the right choice for you.
Should we take motion sickness pills before our helicopter flight?

If you are prone to motion sickness, we suggest taking something before you fly. Our helicopters do provide a smooth ride, and most people do great!
What are the advantages of a helicopter tour versus an airplane tour?

Because of their agility and small turning radius, helicopters can fly you right into the heart of Hawaii’s geological gems, such as the many lush valleys and sprawling canyons, while fixed‐wing aircraft have to circle above. Helicopters allow you a more intimate look at the terrain. Because our pilots can slow down and turn the aircraft around some of the famous highlights, you can take a more leisurely look and are given enhanced photo opportunities. Also, when was the last time you were in a helicopter?
Are there restrooms on the helicopter?

No, helicopters are not equipped with restrooms. We do provide restroom facilities at each of our departure/landing sites.
Does the wind affect the helicopter?

Helicopters unlike planes have no fixed wings. The main rotors function as a gyro and stabilize the helicopter in gusty conditions. If wind and gust are such that it will cause an uncomfortable flight, tours will be canceled. Your safety and comfort are our #1 concern.
