This football stadium helicopter experience is quite possibly the best gift you can get a football lover as they undoubtedly have all the paraphernalia associated with their favourite team but you can guarantee they haven’t seen their stadium from the air!
You and up to 3 fellow fans can take to the sky with this package that includes tours that allows you to see different stadiums dependant on where you're flying from. You could see two stadiums if you fly over Manchester or Liverpool for example or just one if you over a city with only one football team.
You’ll cover approximately 30 miles on board a Bell Jet Ranger helicopter whilst the skilled pilot also acts as your personal tour guide pointing out local landmarks!
Depending on the location chosen, the stadiums that you'll see are below:-
Forget about gifts of clothing or books for your football fan, this experience will have them beaming for years to come!
*This isn’t a private flight. If you book for 3 people for example, the one spare space to make up 4 passengers could be filled by someone from another booking.*
Please note that locations are subject to change and can be removed and added by the experience provider.
This is an incredibly popular experience, so the provider advises booking around 3-6 months in advance for most locations. As we are a gift experience provider, we advise giving the voucher for the occasion ( i.e birthday/ anniversary ) and allowing the recipient to choose a location, time and date that suits them.
The main flying season is April-October for most of the locations, however there are a handful of venues that run year round.
The year round locations are: Newcastle, Gloucestershire, Fairoaks, Blackbushe, Cumbernauld, Nottingham & Waterford.
Your voucher is valid for 12 Months from the date of issue.
Please note you must have booked and taken your experience before the expiry date.
The centres contracted with us hold public liability insurance. We also hold contingency liability cover. You will not be liable for accidental damage to equipment, except where damage has been caused as a result of recklessness or wilful negligence.
A cancellation indemnity, subject to terms, is included with every voucher.
All you have to do is pay for the experience you wish to purchase and we’ll send a voucher and booking information to you or directly to the recipient, then you just need to check the info and book your experience.
Is this experience weather dependant?
Yes, all flights are subject to weather, operational factors and are subject to the possibility of short notice cancellation.
As the weather is ever changing, the pilot will not make a decision until 6pm the evening before your flight. Please do follow the weather check process on your boarding pass
It is important to note that things can change at the last minute and whilst we try our best to predict the weather, reports are not always accurate.
Please note
Helicopter experiences are subject to weather, aircraft serviceability, operational matters and availability. Once you have booked your helicopter experience, you are bound by the terms of the experience provider and in the event of 3 or less cancellations, you will be obliged to rebook the experience, rather than exchange or have a refund.
Is this experience private?
All helicopters can seat at least 4 people, but there are a few helicopters that have 6 spaces, so exclusivity is not guaranteed.
Co-Pilot Seat
There may be an option to upgrade (when booking) to sit in the front of the aircraft in the Co-Pilot seat. There will be an upgrade cost to this which varies in price depending on the duration of the flight.
If you have purchased a "For 4" voucher (where available), this voucher will include the front co-pilot seat, so no upgrade is needed.
If you were to purchase 4 x For 1 vouchers, this would not include the front co-pilot seat and would be for rear seats only. An additional upgrade cost would be needed if one of you wanted to sit in the co-pilot seat.
What is the maximum participant weight?
Flying activities have maximum weights (per seat) to ensure health and safety along with the comfort of fellow passengers.
You must enter passenger/participant weight at the time of booking an experience. If weight varies between the time of initial booking and date of flight experience it remains the responsibility of the customer to update their individual weight via their online account prior to flight.
All passengers will be weighed before flight and if disparity exists between weight disclosed and actual weight (within reason), the passenger may be ineligible to fly.
The following weight restrictions cover multiple flying experiences:
Aeroplane Flying Lessons (2 Seater Aircraft) – Max 15 Stone (95kg)
Aeroplane Flying Lessons (4 Seater Aircraft) – Max 18 Stone (114kg)
Helicopter Flying Lesson - Max 15 Stone (95KG)
Pleasure Flights (Helicopter)
Group size of One – Max 15 Stone (95kg)
Group size of Two – Max 30 Stone (190kg)
Group size of Three – Max 43 Stone (273kg)
Group size of Four – Max 56 Stone (355kg)
Group size of Five – Max 66 Stone (420kg)
Group size of Six - Max 76 Stone (485kg)
Please note that the maximum weight limit for the Co Pilot Seat on a helicopter pleasure flight varies depending on aircraft and other operational considerations but will not exceed 95kg.
If as a party of one you weigh in excess of 15 stone, you may still be able to fly however you will need to purchase an additional seat. This seat will either have to remain unoccupied or can be occupied by an individual as long as the combined total as listed above is not exceeded. However, a total individual weight of 20 stone cannot be exceeded.
Is there an age limit?
Shared Helicopter Flights – 6 years to 13 years (accompanied by an adult with a valid ticket). There is no maximum age limit.
Private Helicopter Flights - 2 years (accompanied). There is no maximum age limit.
Is there a maximum height?
The maximum height is 6ft 6 for helicopter rides.
Can I fly whilst pregnant?
We are happy to fly pregnant passengers however we cannot give medical advice, please consult your doctor if you have any concerns at all before taking your flight.
Photos
A photographer is present at every flight and customers can have their photos taken outside and inside of the helicopter. The framed photos will be available to purchase after the flight for £15.
I bought this for my boyfriend. I did not go up with him ( so he did indeed "walk" alone ) but he told me it was the best present ever. He is a massive Liverpool fan and has been at Anfield many times but he said this was a completely different experience despite it was empty. Would rate it 5 if it wasn't because of having to see Goodison Park too :D

Watching Old Trafford stadium from a freaking helicopter was mind-blowing! I mean, talk about an epic view! The stadium looked massive from up there, and you could see every detail. It was like being on top of the world.
The helicopter ride itself was a blast. We soared through the air, feeling like VIPs, and the pilot was super cool, pointing out all the landmarks and giving us some interesting facts. But seriously, nothing compared to the moment we circled around Old Trafford. It was like being in a freaking movie.
If you're a football fan or just love epic views, you gotta try this. It's an experience you won't forget. Old Trafford from a helicopter? Pure awesomeness, my friend. Go for it!
