Heli-proposal!!!

Fantastic service from the whole crew. Adam (our pilot) was fantastic. Managed to land and propose despite difficult weather conditions and was thoughtful in giving space and time for the proposal to my now fiancée. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Adam!

Awesome experience. Even impressed the teens

Surprised the kids with a heli tour. It’s hard to get teenagers off their devices and impress them, but this was a winner with all of them. Great pilot and narration of the trip. Jamie did stay focused on her checklist and took safety seriously. Awesome touchdown stop and walking around on mountain top. Siblings were too amazed by the flight to fight with each other. All focused on the flight and didn’t even bother to text friends until after.

Best way to get above the clouds

We had a great flight! Our pilot was very educated about the land and took the time to show us and teach us about the surrounding area! He made sure that we did not feel rushed so that we could enjoy our experience. Definitely worth the trip you will see a view like no other pictures will never do justice

WORST HELICOPTER COMPANY

We booked our heli elopement well in advance and were looking forward to it. Per my previous discussions with the Company, we were expecting to receive a call a day before the elopement related to the weather conditions in case the weather didn’t look good.. However, we didn’t receive any call. On the day of our elopement, we received a call a couple hours before our flight saying the weather looks good so far but in case anything changes we will call you at 2pm and if we don’t call, it’s expected that we are good for the fight. This was surprising as on the 1st place since we didn’t hear anything from them until a couple hours before the flight instead of the day before.. Later, we didn’t receive any call for them but since I wanted to make sure, I called them at 2.05pm to ask if we are good for the flight. They told us they will call us back if weather is bad in next 5mins as the pilot will be updating in next few mins.. We didn’t hear anything so we left for our flight scheduled at 2.40pm.. When we reached the parking lot at 2.30pm they called us saying the fight is cancelled.. This was very sudden and disappointing given we made all efforts to make sure we are good and we were literally outside ready to board the flight for our elopement.. They did not offer any alternative options such as dates/ times etc even though they knew the booking was for an elopement. We still had a great & beautiful wedding at a different location and made it all work out at the very last minute. The weather was clear and sunny the whole day and days after and we felt like they cancelled on a 10mins notice without any reason or alternative options in terms of timing. We will go for a heli tour on our anniversary next year but definitely NOT with blackcomb helicopters. We DON’T recommend anyone planning any elopement or engagement with blackcomb helicopters since they can ruin your plans any minute even when you have already arrived to fly.
