Landing rules
What Is Realistic on an Island
Islands rarely have a ready helipad. Where a resort, a private estate or an airport can receive a helicopter we use it; where no approved site exists we fly over the sights without landing, or land on the nearest mainland coast and use a short boat. We confirm the landing option before you pay and write it in the quote.
Weather decides the details. Crossings are flown in the calmer morning hours when possible, and a strong afternoon breeze can add minutes or move a flight. See the best time to fly.
