Road against air

Road Time Against Air Time on a Business Day

Car times are daytime ranges that move with traffic. Air times are airborne minutes for one leg; add about 15–20 minutes at each end for boarding, briefing and shutdown.

LegBy carBy helicopter
Airport to Ubud60–90 min13–20 min
Airport to Kintamani90–120 min20–30 min
Canggu to Uluwatu1.25–2 hours10–15 min
Ubud to Uluwatu1.5–2 hours15–25 min
Airport to Nusa Dua20–30 min8–12 min

On a short leg such as the airport to Nusa Dua a car is as quick door to door. The helicopter earns its price on long legs, on days with two or more stops, and when the road is the problem.

Who charters

Who Charters a VIP Helicopter in Bali

These four briefs make up most corporate requests. Each is planned around the landing sites first, because the sites decide whether the day works.

Investors and developers viewing land

See plots on the Bukit, the Tabanan coast and the Kintamani hills in one morning instead of a day in traffic. A landing at a plot needs the landowner's consent and the operator's clearance, so we list each site in advance. Where a plot cannot take a helicopter, we land at a nearby approved pad and use a car for the last stretch.

Executives between villa, venue and airport

A same-day shuttle from a Canggu villa to a dinner at Uluwatu takes 10–15 min in the air. For the arrival leg read about the airport helicopter transfer.

Delegations and incentive groups

Seven or eight guests fly in two helicopters together, with one WhatsApp thread controlling both aircraft. The group flight guide explains the split.

Launches and VIP arrivals

Land at an approved venue pad with the lawn cleared and be at the door minutes later. A ground photographer ($250) and ground drone filming ($300) can be added; for the same idea at a ceremony see helicopter wedding arrivals.

Sample day

A Sample Multi-Stop Executive Day

An example for a dry-season day. Every landing outside an airport depends on the site owner's consent and the operator's clearance, so a multi-stop plan lists each site beforehand. The last landing must come before sunset, about 18:05 in June and 18:40 in late December.

  • Pick-up at the airport or a Bukit padBriefing, weights and bags. The quote names the pad.
  • Leg 1: airport to the Ubud meeting13–20 min in the air to an approved site. The helicopter waits on the ground at $300 per hour, or flies away and returns at a fixed time.
  • Leg 2: Ubud to the Batur rim13–20 min to a site near Kintamani for the site visit. Cloud gathers on the high ground from late morning, so earlier is clearer.
  • Lunch at the stopA hotel or venue with its own lawn or pad keeps lunch on site. If not, a car covers the last stretch.
  • Leg 3: Kintamani to the coast25–35 min to a Bukit venue for the closing meeting.
  • Final drop and debriefGuests leave by car or are flown back to the pad, with a safe margin before sunset.
Flight times

Flight Times and One-Way Prices From the Airport

Examples of single legs from the Ngurah Rai Airport area. A one-way price includes the helicopter's flight back, so it is close to a return.

DestinationDistanceAir timeOne-way helicopter
Ubud29 km13–20 minfrom $1,300
Canggu11 km8–13 minfrom $800
Uluwatu13 km9–14 minfrom $900
Nusa Dua9 km8–12 minfrom $800
Kintamani59 km20–30 minfrom $1,900
Lombok International Airport122 km35–50 minfrom $3,250

For one place to another a point-to-point price is simplest. For several stops and waiting, hourly charter is easier to plan. We show both when it helps.

Discretion and billing

Discretion, Invoices and Who Operates the Flight

Your itinerary stays between you, us and the operator. We do not publish client names, itineraries or photos, and we share your plan only with the people who must clear each landing.

Invoices are by arrangement. Send the company name and what the invoice must show, and we agree the terms before the booking is confirmed. A deposit holds the slot, and the payment details arrive with the quote; the website takes no payment.

Every flight is operated by a licensed Indonesian air operator (AOC holder). Ask for the operator name and licence number with your quote, since many corporate travel policies need them; the guide what to ask an operator lists the questions. The pilot decides on weather, and a flight that cannot go is moved or refunded for the part not flown.

Travel policy or insurance rules

Send the policy with your request. We ask the operator what it can supply before you commit.

Booking

How a Corporate Charter Is Booked

Send the brief

Date, stops in order with map pins, number of guests, rough weights and bags, and the time you must be finished.

We check pads, sites and hours

We confirm which stops are airports or hotel pads, and which need an owner's consent. New private sites can take a few days, so ask a week ahead for them.

You receive the quote

The quote names the aircraft class, the pads, the operator, the hourly rate and the waiting terms.

Deposit and invoice details

A deposit holds the slot. Send the invoice details at the same time.

One thread on the day

A single WhatsApp thread covers pick-up, timing changes and the weather call. If a leg is stopped by weather, we move it or refund the part not flown.

The brief

What to Send With Your Request

  • Stops in order, with map pins. Airports and hotel pads are quick to confirm; private plots take longer.
  • Guests, weights and bags. Weight decides the aircraft class, and soft bags only fit in the hold.
  • Your hard stop. Flights end by sunset, so tell us the latest time you must be on the ground.
  • A contact at each site. A name and number for the venue or landowner helps the clearance.
  • A road back-up. Keep a car on call for any leg that weather or a volcano advisory stops.
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a VIP helicopter cost in Bali?

Charter starts at $2,300 per hour for up to 4 guests and $3,300 per hour for up to 6. Prices are for the whole helicopter with pilot and fuel. Waiting on the ground is $300 per hour.

Can the helicopter wait for us at each stop?

Yes, at $300 per hour, or it can fly away and return at a fixed time. The quote states which one you have and how many waiting hours are included.

Can you invoice a company?

Invoices are by arrangement. Send the company name and the details the invoice must carry, and we agree the terms before the booking is confirmed.

Can the helicopter land at our venue or site?

Only where the site is approved: an airport, a hotel pad, or private land with the owner's consent and the operator's clearance. See how landing at a villa or hotel works for the checks.

How do we move a group of 7 or 8?

Two helicopters fly together, one 4-seat or 6-seat aircraft for each part of the group, with one schedule. The larger class costs about 1.4 times the 4-seat rate.

Is the booking private?

We share your plan only with the operator and the parties who must clear each landing. We do not publish client names or itineraries. Ask for the operator's name and licence number with the quote.

Can we fly after dark or in bad weather?

No. Flights run in daylight only, from sunrise to sunset, and the pilot decides on weather. A leg that cannot fly is moved to the next suitable slot or the part not flown is refunded. For a same-day request see urgent flights.
