Description

YOUR GATEWAY TO AN UNFORGETTABLE HELICOPTER JOURNEY.

The most complete aerial view of Long Beach, harbor and coastline, Queen Mary, and skyline – all in one flight. Don’t let the cheap price of this helicopter ride distract you from the gorgeous blue color of the Pacific Ocean and the massive size of Long Beach harbor. In April, if we time it right, you will even get to witness Indycars race across the circuit when we fly over the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach. In October, experience the Festival of Flight over Long Beach airport. An annual aviation celebration with historic aircraft, military displays, and flyovers. Directly on the south. A natural fit for timing a booking.

Soar above a timeless icon of romance with a breathtaking flyover of the legendary Queen Mary. As the sun dips below the horizon, casting a golden glow over her majestic hull and iconic red funnels, the old-world glamour of transatlantic travel comes alive from a spectacular aerial perspective. Every sweeping view whispers tales of midnight strolls under the stars and classic love stories, inviting you to lose yourself in the enduring romance of a living legend.

Cheap and budget-friendly, yet there is way too much action readily available from the leather seats of your helicopter ride. We call it the USA Gateway tour because this is your “gateway” to a sightseeing dream. Your pilot has all inside facts with over 20 years of experienced flight, so don’t be afraid to ask questions!
