Which Helicopter Suits Me Best For My Flight?

3 min read

Sydney HeliTours has an impressive modern fleet of well maintained, low time helicopters to suit your flight requirements.

Whether it be for a short or a long period of time, a charter, a corporate or a scenic helicopter flight, Sydney HeliTours have a range of helicopters to suit your needs.

Whilst many of our flights are shared, an option available at Sydney HeliTours is to privately hire a helicopter. By privately hiring the helicopter, you can determine which type of helicopter you would like to use for your journey.

The size of the helicopter determines the number of people you can take as well as how far you can go. Single engine helicopters are less expensive to charter and perfect for short daytime flights. Twin engine helicopters are generally bigger, faster and can be used for corporate and night flights as well.

Helicopters are an excellent mode of transport to destinations with no airport, as long as you have a clear and safe area and permission to land, the options are many.

Our sightseeing and package flights around Sydney and New South Wales are very popular, however many of Sydney HeliTours guests choose to charter helicopters to and from airports, resorts, weddings or events.

The following is a representation of Sydney HeliTours fleet;
