Golden hour

Golden-Hour Flights Cost Slightly More

Demand concentrates in the last hour of daylight, so the flight that ends at sunset is priced above the same minutes at midday. See how golden-hour flights work.

Flight	Air time	Whole helicopter	Per person, 2 guests	Per person, 4 guests
Bukit cliffs at sunset	18 min	$750	$375	$190
Cliffs and coast at sunset	30 min	$1,250	$625	$315

Charter

Hourly Charter Rates and Aircraft Classes

For custom routes, multi-stop days and filming, the helicopter is billed by flight hour. Standby on the ground is billed separately. Charter details.

Class	Guests	Per flight hour	Notes
4-seat class	up to 4	$2,300	Pilot, fuel and aircraft included
6-seat class	up to 6	$3,300	More cabin room and baggage space
Two helicopters	7–8	2 × 4-seat rate	Fly together; each aircraft is priced separately

Which exact helicopter flies on your date is confirmed with the quote; see helicopter classes.

Transfers

Transfer and Island Flight Prices (One-Way)

Priced by flight time between the two places. A one-way fare already includes the helicopter's flight back, so a same-day return is the same flight time plus standby.

Airport to Uluwatu	9–14 min	$900	$1,200

What moves a price

What Pushes a Helicopter Quote Up or Down

Three things set most of the price: flight minutes (the aircraft is billed by the minute it is running), the aircraft class (a 6-seat helicopter costs about 1.4 times a 4-seat one) and the number of legs (a one-way transfer is billed for the empty flight back).

Smaller factors change the figure by a few hundred dollars: golden-hour demand, landing fees at a hotel or venue, a long drive between the pad and your pick-up place, waiting time, and peak weeks in July, August and over Christmas and New Year. The weather never changes the price: if the pilot cancels, the flight moves or the unflown part is refunded.

Reading two quotes side by side? Compare the billed flight time, the aircraft class, what is inside the price and whether landing fees and standby are included. The full price guide has a checklist.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a helicopter ride in Bali cost?

From $450 for a 12-minute scenic flight for the whole helicopter, up to 4 guests. A 30-minute Mount Batur flight is $1,150, the 60-minute grand circle $2,300, and hourly charter $2,300. With four guests the 12-minute flight is $115 each.

Are the prices per person?

No. Every price is for the helicopter. One guest or four on the same flight pay the same total, and groups of 5–6 fly in a larger class at about 1.4 times the 4-seat rate.

Why is a one-way transfer so close to a return price?

After dropping you off the helicopter has to fly back empty, so you are paying for both legs of aircraft time. If you plan to return, book it the same day: you pay the same flight time plus standby, from $300 per hour.

Do prices change by season?

The guide prices stay the same through the year. Peak weeks (July–August and Christmas–New Year) and golden-hour slots can add a few hundred dollars, and the quote shows the exact figure.

Are landing fees included?

Fees at airports and approved pads are included in the quote where the operator pays them. Fees charged by a hotel or venue for landing on their site are added at cost and written in the quote before you pay.

What currency do I pay in?

Quotes are in US dollars. The rupiah figures here use about Rp 17,850 per US$1 as a guide; the payment details sent with the quote state the amount and the method.

What if the weather cancels the flight?

The pilot decides. We move the flight to the next suitable slot or refund the part that was not flown.
