- The maximum weight capacity
For the safety and comfort of all passengers on board, we have set a safety weight limit of 115 kilograms per passenger per seat. We kindly request passengers to provide accurate weight information at the time of booking. Failure to provide accurate information will lead to cancellation of flight with non-refundable ticket. In the event that a variance in weight is identified at the time of travel, or if the passenger’s weight is beyond the limit, exceeding our aircraft’s weight carrying capacity, we offer the following options:
- Passengers whose weight approaches or surpasses this limit are not given a guarantee to fly due to passenger’s safety weight limit. By clicking “Continue” to proceed you agreed to the terms and conditions, accepting the risk of not able to fly due to weight restrictions and a non-refundable ticket. Call 800 359 or email tours@daw.ae for more info.
- Consider opting for a private flight rather than sharing with other passengers to get higher chance of taking the flight.
- If rescheduling the flight is not feasible, passengers whose weight exceeds or closely approaches the limit are kindly encouraged to purchase an additional seat to maintain the proper weight and balance of the aircraft.
- Our maximum weight limit is 140kg. Passengers who exceed the 140kg weight limit will not be permitted to fly.
As much as we want everyone to fly with our helicopter tours, helicopter flights also have weight capacity constraints and other regulations governing the aircraft’s balance. In certain situations, we may need to reschedule specific flights, even if all passengers are within the weight limit, due to the overall weight exceeding the safe limit for takeoff. Lastly, we regret to inform that we are unable to provide a helicopter tour if seat belt extender is required.
For further information, please feel free to reach out to our HeliDubai call center team. Call 800 359 or email tours@daw.ae.
