Gyrocopter Flight Dubai
Want to see Dubai's amazing buildings from a totally new angle? The Gyrocopter Flight Experience gives you an up-close, awesome tour that's way more fun than a regular plane ride. A gyrocopter is a small, cool aircraft that has a spinning top part (like a helicopter) and a simple engine (like a plane).
You get to sit right next to your expert pilot for a quick 20-minute flight. This ride gives you 360-degree views of the most famous man-made islands and giant towers. It is a thrilling, windy, and personal way to see the city. Plus, Captain Dunes makes sure your trip to the launch spot is super easy and right on time.
Why This Flight is a Must-Do
This open-air machine gives you views you just can't get from inside a big, closed plane.
- Open-Air Fun: The front area is mostly open or uses clear, bubble-like glass. This gives you a feeling of complete freedom and the best clear views for snapping pictures!
- The Best Views: The pilots fly a special path to give you the top views of Dubai's best projects: over the cool palm shape of the Palm Jumeirah, the huge The World Islands, and gliding past the amazing Burj Al Arab.
- Just You and the Pilot: The gyrocopter only seats two people (you and the pilot). This makes it a personal tour. Your pilot can point things out and even fly toward the best angles just for you.
- Easy and Smooth: Gyrocopters fly very steadily and smoothly at a lower height than planes. This makes it a very comfortable ride, even if you’ve never flown in a small aircraft before.
- Cool Starting Point: Flights take off from the famous Skydive Dubai Palm Drop Zone, which is a buzzing spot that adds to the excitement of your flight.
Where to Take Off: The Perfect Spot
The Gyrocopter is located where the views are best - Right near the water and the big towers:
- Main Spot: Flights leave from the Skydive Dubai Palm Drop Zone, located right next to the beautiful Dubai Marina. You start flying over the main sights right away!
- What You’ll See: The flight shows you the tall buildings of the Dubai Marina, the huge Ain Dubai (the big wheel), and the lovely coastline of the Arabian Gulf.
Flight Check: What You Need to Know
Before you get ready to fly, here are the simple rules:
- How Long: The ride lasts about 20 minutes. It's the perfect amount of time to see everything without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
- The Cost: This is a high-quality, special tour. The price is higher because you get a personal pilot, a unique aircraft, and the best views of Dubai's famous spots. It's a special experience!
- Rules:
- Age: You must be at least 17 years old.
- Weight: There is a tough weight limit of approximately 103 kg (227 lb).
- Booking: These flights are super popular! You must book your spot way ahead of time (sometimes weeks before), especially if you want a weekend flight.
- ID Needed: Make sure to bring a valid original photo ID (like your passport) when you check in.
Pilot's Pointers: Get the Best Ride
- Wear Simple Clothes: Wear something comfortable. Because the cockpit is open, you will feel the wind, so leave loose hats or scarves at home.
- Be On Time: You must check in 30 minutes before your flight time for the safety talk. If you are late, you will miss your flight!
- Skip Your Own Camera: You can't take your phone or camera up with you (it's a safety rule). The company offers professional pictures and videos, so plan to buy those to show off your flight!
