About Oahu Air Adventure
Lift off from Turtle Bay Resort and begin with a bird’s-eye view of Oahu’s famous North Shore, where surf breaks such as Sunset Beach and Pipeline line the coast below. From there, the route turns inland over the green ridges of the Ko'olau Mountains before continuing toward central Oahu and the Honolulu skyline.
The flight then follows the south and east sides of the island, passing Waikiki, Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay and Makapu'u Point. As you reach the windward coast, Waimanalo Beach and the bright sandbars of Kaneohe Bay come into view, giving you a broad look at several very different parts of Oahu in one flight.

Restrictions
Weight Guidelines:
For each passenger weighing 240+ pounds (109 kg), an adjacent empty seat is required to safely balance the aircraft and requires an additional surcharge equal to 1/2 ticket price.
The Federal Aviation Administration requires that each each passenger is weighed prior to departure. This weigh-in process is very discrete when you check in. Any significant variance in the weights provided and actual scale weight could result in flight delays or possible cancellation.
Front Row Seating Add-on Restrictions:
Combined Front Row seat weight must be under 470 lbs and individual passenger weights must be under 240 lbs. Should the actual weights at check-in exceed any of these limits guests will be accommodated in other seats and allowed a refund for the upgrade fee.
Front Row passengers must occupy their own seats and must be able to refrain from interfering with the pilot and instrumentation. NO LAP CHILDREN IN FRONT ROW. In the event of an emergency front row passengers must be able to receive instructions in English and be physically capable of operating exit doors. Chair lifts can only access the rear row seats, therefore guests requiring a chair lift cannot be accommodated in the front row.
You MUST have with you:
Passengers need to bring a government issued photo ID. International passengers will need their passport.
Special Notes
Children 23 months or younger may fly at no charge and must sit on adult's lap. Please provide child's weight at time of booking.
All helicopter tours are subject to weather cancellations. We are continually watching the weather to ensure safe flights. While we make every effort to notify you as soon as possible for changes, the pilot will make a weather call up to 15 minutes prior to flight time. If the tour is cancelled due to weather, we will give you an option to reschedule based on availability or refund.

Equipment
Blue Hawaiian's fleet is Hawaii's largest fleet of touring helicopters. Their EC-130 Eco-Star helicopters have comfortable, individual seats for every passenger that afford the kind of shoulder room and personal space found in airline "First Class" seating. The Eco-Star is also significantly quieter than standard touring helicopters and offers more interior space, with 65 square feet of glass for panoramic views. A 4-camera video system captures touring memories to bring home for a lifetime keepsake.
