Miami Helicopter Tours FAQ’s

How much is a private helicopter in miami.

A private helicopter tour provides breathtaking views that can only be seen from the skies of Miami and nowhere else!

These incredibly unique tours are a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many but can be rather costly.

The total price tag depends on a few factors including the duration of the flight as well as any additional onboard amenities.

The cheapest rides last between 18 and 20 minutes and cost as low as $130USD.

Thirty minute flights typically take passengers down South Beach to view Art Deco buildings or over Key Biscayne, Fisher Island, Star, Palm or the Venetian Islands.

On the 40 minute rides, you’ll view Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Fisher Island, Key Biscayne, the Seaquarium and the Intracoastal Waterway.

The longest flights range from 50 minutes to an hour and cost between $379 and $399USD.

The most expensive flights sometimes include snacks and champagne.

Regardless of the duration of your helicopter flight, you’re sure to have a magical experience.

Are Helicopter Tours Worth It?

This ultimately depends on your personal interests and the type of experiences you value while on vacation.

However, the short answer is yes, helicopter tours are worth it. The uniqueness of the tour alone makes it worth the money.

Miami helicopter tours offer an amazing flight experience, where else can you get a bird’s eye view of an entire metropolitan area for miles.

From cityscapes to lush marshland and even sea life, you’ll gain access to incredible views that can’t be seen anywhere else.

The feeling of flying in a helicopter is also more thrilling than that of flying in an airplane.

Helicopters are much more agile and maneuverable, meaning you can experience tighter turns, less turbulence, and lower altitude to see things better on the ground.

How Much Is A Helicopter Ride From Miami To Key West?

Costs for a helicopter ride from Miami to Key West vary slightly depending on the number of passengers and the company.

The one-way ride through Air Key West usually takes about 45 minutes.

The cost is around $1000USD for five passengers, and $1900USD for nine passengers.

It’s slightly cheaper to fly out of nearby Naples and Marco Island locations.

Naples costs $900 for five passengers and $1700USD for nine passengers for a 39 minute flight.

Marco Island to Key West rides ring in at $800USD for five passengers and $1550USD for nine passengers for a 35 minute journey.

How Long Does A 12 Mile Helicopter Tour Last?

The entire tour for a 12 mile helicopter ride usually lasts about 20 minutes in total.

It will take 12 minutes to go through a brief training and the boarding process.

Total flight time after take off will be about eight minutes.

It’s the perfect length for passengers who may be new to helicopters and perhaps don’t want to take an extensive flight.

Shorter flights also mean a more affordable cost.

If you have a smaller group or a limited budget but still want to experience a helicopter ride, a shorter ride will be the best option.

Miami Helicopter Tours – Final Thoughts

Most tours utilize a Robinson R44 model helicopter which comes with bubble windows for optimal sightseeing.

Before booking with a flight company, make sure that your pilot tour guide is FAA-certified with plenty of hours of training and practice.

To ensure the safest and most comfortable ride possible, and wear breathable clothing and shoes —   no heels, short dresses, long flowing dresses, or swimwear!

For safety reasons, be sure to pay attention during the pre-flight training and safety briefing to avoid any unforeseen accidents or incidents.

Every passenger in your group will also have to sign a waiver prior to boarding the helicopter —   this is very standard procedure.

Miami helicopter tours are generally family-friendly. However, some companies have age and weight limits.

Many may only allow passengers above the age of two to fly, as well as people who weigh less than 270 pounds. 

Helicopter tours are also not handicap accessible, either. Plan accordingly if someone in your group is wheelchair-bound or has an injury that could cause discomfort.

While booking a helicopter tour is a perfect way to explore Miami and the surrounding areas or region, it’s important to know that all tours are dependent on the weather conditions and can be canceled or rescheduled at a moment’s notice in case of bad weather.

'Amphibious assault ship:' WPTV tours USS Bataan at Fleet Week Miami

MIAMI — Miami Fleet Week is full steam ahead, and one of the biggest ships on display at PortMiami is the USS Bataan.

This ship is capable of launching marines into action. But it takes a crew of hundreds of Navy sailors to make that happen.

From the view above to walking into the USS Bataan, you're immediately awestruck by its size. It's the length of almost three football fields with a crew of almost 2,000 sailors and marines.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mike (@miketrimwptv)

"Explain the use of this type of ship in today's Navy," WPTV anchor and Navy veteran Mike Trim asked Lt. Karina Martinez.

"This is an amphibious assault ship," Martinez answered. "So we're mainly for humanitarian assistance. We actually just came from a deployment."

It was a deployment that included positioning in the Mediterranean Sea after the Israel-Hamas war started. Helicopters flown by Marines are on the flight deck. But Trim wanted to show you the blue-collar, jack-of-all-trades of the ship: the boatswain's mate.

"How proud are you of your job you do on this ship?" Trim asked the boatswain's mate Cody Senters.

"I love everything I do about being a boatswain's mate," Senters said. "It's one of the oldest rates on board in the Navy."

South Florida sailors and marines return home for Fleet Week Miami

Senters showed off what he does with the marine craft.

"The communication of the craft approaching or debarking the well deck itself, we ensure that the water levels are appropriate," Senters said.

Walking through the decks of the Bataan, you see how versatile this ship is. The hangar bay is where the Marines store a lot of their vehicles and equipment.

"A lot of these vehicles when it comes to, hey, we got to take these onto the shore," Senters said.

This week, it's hitting the shore in a different way at Miami Fleet Week. The sailors are ready to see South Florida for a week of fun after protecting America's interests throughout the world.
