Peer down at one of the world’s largest mazes on the Dole Plantation before soaring over the pristine coastline of the North Shore. Look for surfers catching waves at the Banzai Pipeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to fly?

Regarding the best time of day for a helicopter tour, you should primarily consider your personal schedule. Most of the time, we are blessed with beautiful weather in Hawaii, and the time of day, whether it be morning or afternoon, will make no difference. If we happen to have a rainy weather pattern, the pilot will consult weather reports and other pilots who have been flying to determine if we can operate a good tour. Blue Hawaiian does not want to take our guests on a flight unless we are reasonably certain we can give you an excellent experience.
How much experience do your pilots have?

All pilots who fly for us are highly experienced. In fact, we believe this is the most experienced group of helicopter tour pilots anywhere in the world, and each is required to obtain certification as a State of Hawaii Tour Guide. Furthermore, we are the only helicopter tour company in Hawaii with its own state-of-the-art Flight Simulator and the only one that puts its pilots through annual factory and FAA recurrent training.
What is your weather policy?

The weather in Hawaii is unlike the weather in other parts of the world. We have isolated, passing showers over the windward side of each island throughout the entire day. Weather forecasters usually give a daily report of rain; this is normal Hawaii weather—what creates our beautiful waterfalls and rainbows—and should not adversely affect your tour. Our pilots, who have access to the latest updates on the local weather conditions, make all flight decisions. Our pilots use the latest technology to ensure a safe and beautiful tour. If we have to cancel your tour due to weather, we will only do so on the day of the tour, typically very near to your flight time when the forecast is most accurate. If that happens, we would love to reschedule your flight, but if you cannot, there is absolutely no penalty to you, and you will receive a 100% refund.
Can I take a tour if I use a wheelchair?

All of our bases are wheelchair-accessible and ADA-compliant. Each base also has a custom-built chair lift to assist passengers into the helicopter safely and comfortably. Our chair lifts are able to accommodate passengers up to 250 lbs.
