FAQ
How far in advance should I book an Auckland scenic flight?
Flights sell on the live calendar, weather permitting — check dates and prices when you book. Meeting place depends on your ticket: Rosedale helicopter base (city-and-volcanoes and coast-to-coast), Mechanics Bay CBD heliport (west-coast landing and 60-minute city scenic), or North Shore Airport for the airplane (some options use Waiheke). No hotel pickup. Plan about 15 minutes check-in unless your voucher says otherwise. Shared flights; small heli groups and higher plane booking caps. Live prices are shown when you book.
Can children go on an Auckland scenic flight?
Infants typically fly on an adult’s lap on the scenic airplane options. Confirm age bands on your helicopter option when you book. A harder destination-wide minimum age beyond those bands is not stated.
What is the cancellation policy for Auckland scenic flights?
Full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled start. Weather cancellations typically offer a refund or rebooking. Some airplane departures may also cancel if too few travellers book — check your confirmation. Flexible dates early in your stay help.
What is the weight limit for a scenic flight in Auckland?
The lead helicopter base states a passenger weight limit of about 116 kg (255 lb). Some airplane options note about 110 kg. Combined cabin weight-and-balance can force a reschedule with a refund path — follow check-in guidance. Live limits on your voucher win.
