What Can I Expect

Ever fancied booking a private helicopter flight? These exclusive helicopter charters over Kent might sound over-extravagant, but they are actually great value if there are four of you. And if you do want to make the ultimate gesture for a loved one, you can book it for just the two of you, making for a pretty cool way to go top-notch on the romance!

You can charter a helicopter out of Manston or Rochester airports. Both are in Kent and both boast a plethora of sightseeing all around them. Manston is, of course, famous for having been RAF Manston and is where you'll see a Spitfire and Hurricane Memorial and RAF Museum still on site today. Chartering a private helicopter from Manston means you're in the heart of Thanet, surrounded by Kentish coastline and country.

If you choose Rochester as your private hire base, you're right next to the River Medway and just south of historic Chatham and the estuary, which are both steeped in history. It's also on the cusp of Greater London as we know it with motorways, bridges and huge out of town shopping centres, so you can mix your Kent countryside with the hustle and bustle of modern life on your private tour.

Now, as for where you go and what you see on these private helicopter flights, it's totally up to you! Of course, this is all within the limits of flight rules and regulations, but in general, if it's within the flight time limit you've booked, you can go there.

So just imagine you were born in Kent and want to see your childhood home. Perhaps you live there now and want to look down on your house? Or maybe you met your other half on a night out in Maidstone? Do you have fond memories of summer holidays with sand castles and punch and judy on the beach at Broadstairs? Did you go wild during your student days on the cobbled streets of Canterbury? Or did they propose on a romantic trip to idyllic Leeds Castle? All could be possible with these helicopter charters.

And if you haven't got a specific place you'd like to see, these private helicopter flights let you witness the best of Kent from the air - in total comfort. To get you inspired, we've listed the most popular flight paths and itineraries for each tour duration from both airports. And remember, these are exclusive flights, so it's just you, up to three of your VIP invited guests and your pilot onboard the modern Bell 206 JetRanger heli.
