Bali and Nusa Penida in One Day
Fly out at 07:20, land on an approved Penida site, lunch on the island and be home by 16:00 by helicopter or fast boat. Hours, prices and daylight limits.

Six day plans that put helicopter flights between breakfast, beach, meetings and dinner. Each has clock times, flight minutes, a price table and a landing deadline before sunset. Flights start at $450 for the whole helicopter, up to 4 guests, and the plans run from a 12-minute family flight to a Lombok and Gili day. Pick the plan closest to your day, then send the date and where you stay on WhatsApp.
Each itinerary lists the day hour by hour, the flight minutes, what it costs line by line, why the order works and what to settle before you book.

Prices come from the price page and the quote fixes the final figure. For single flights without a full day around them, see the Bali helicopter tours; for one-way flights between places, see helicopter routes and transfers.
Daylight comes first. Helicopters here fly by day, from sunrise to sunset. The sun rises between about 05:50 and 06:35 and sets between about 18:05 and 18:40. Every plan gives the time you land, and none schedules a flight after sunset. Golden-hour flights lift off 20 to 30 minutes before sunset and end as the sun reaches the horizon.
Landing sites are approved first. Airports and hotel pads are quick to confirm. Private land and island sites need the owner's agreement and the operator's clearance, which can take a few days. Public beaches, temple grounds and national parks are never landing sites. If a site cannot work, you hear it in the first reply and get a fallback; read how landing at a villa or hotel works.
Weight sets the class. Send approximate weights of everyone and the bags. The 4-seat class takes up to 4 guests, the 6-seat class takes up to 6 at about 1.4 times the rate, and 7 or 8 guests fly in two helicopters.
Every plan has a back-up. The pilot decides on weather. A flight stopped by wind, cloud or a volcano alert moves to the next suitable slot, or the part not flown is refunded. The best-time guide compares the months.
A day plan with clock times that builds one or more flights into a full day: breakfast, flight, beach or spa, rest, a second flight, dinner. Each plan lists the flight minutes, the take-off windows, the landing deadline and a line-by-line price table for the whole helicopter.
From $450 for the family flight. The honeymoon day uses two flights from $500 and $750, the Penida day starts at $1,000 one-way, and the Lombok and Gili day is $2,850 one-way or $3,150 same-day return. Prices are for the whole helicopter.
