What to expect
You'll arrive at the heliport, receive a safety briefing, and board a compact aircraft with removable full-glass doors—no window panes between you and the sky. The pilot navigates Brisbane's airspace, pointing out the CBD, river loops, parks, and Mt Cootha. Flight path occasionally shifts if air traffic control limits CBD access; you'll spend extra time over the mountains instead, keeping full flight duration. Expect wind noise through the headsets and strong daylight—bring sunglasses. The ride is smooth in fair weather.
Good to know
Weight limit is 130kg per passenger for safety and balance. Minimum age 3. Free parking included. Nearby public transport available if you need a lift to the heliport. Flights may divert around airspace restrictions; you always get full airtime. Bring a camera with fast shutter speed for moving shots.
