| Frequently
asked questions |
 |
 |
|
Is
it safe?
At Commercial Helicopters our passenger's safety is paramount.
All passengers are given a thorough safety briefing prior to flight
including use of seatbelts, operation of the doors and general
safety awareness around the helicopter. Can
we take photos and videos?
Absolutley! Infact, we encourage you. What
if I feel unwell during the flight?
We suggest that you use a precaution for travel sickness only
if you are going on a long flight ie ½ hour or more. The other
tours are shorter stints in the chopper and you should be OK.
Can
I have a window seat?
Commercial Helicopters can guarantee window seats for up to 3
passengers per flight. When
do I need to be at the airport?
15 mins prior to your booked flight time is what we suggest. What
happens if I cancel or fail to show after I have booked a flight?
If, for whatever reason, you cancel 3 hours before the booked
in flight time, there will be no cancellation fee. Please consider
the pilot and his preparation time needed to ready the helicopter
(and meal, if included) before the flight. He will indeed be
at the helicopter at least 2 hours prior to departure so you need
to contact us well and truly before this. If the cancellation
of a booking occurs within the three hours before flight time,
Commercial Helicopters reserves the right to charge a 50% fee.
What
if the weather is bad on the day of by flight?
The flight can be rescheduled at a time that is convenient to
you. Can
you arrange transport to the airport?
Certainly. If you arrange this with us when making the booking
we will be only too happy to pick you up. What
should we wear?
Similar clothing to what you would wear on a car trip. In cooler
weather a sweater is suggested. What
about children?
The minimum age for children allowed on the helicopters is generally
three years of age. However, upon request from parents, we may
consider younger aged children. Children who occupy a seat of
their own are charged as a fare paying passenger. Please note,
however, prices quoted for scenic flights above.Can
passengers talk to the pilot during the flight?
All passengers will have radio contact with the pilot so feel
free to ask him any questions.
Can
I talk to someone face to face about a joyflight?
Our pilots would be only too happy to meet with you and explain
the who, what, where, why and whens of Commercial Helicopter's
operation.
