Vienna along the Danube by helicopter

The Donauinsel, the Millennium Tower and the vineyards of the Wachau — the centre is controlled airspace.

The flight leaves from Bad Vöslau, south of the capital — there is no commercial base in Vienna itself — and follows the Danube corridor: the Donauinsel, the Millennium Tower, UNO City. The historic centre and the Hofburg cannot be overflown: be wary of imagery that promises them. Per-seat tickets exist on only a dozen dates a year; outside those, private hire remains affordable.

Frequently asked questions

Can the aircraft be chartered privately?
Yes. All our scenic flights can be privatised — the whole aircraft to yourself, whatever the number of passengers. It is also the only way to guarantee an exact departure time, since a shared flight depends on the aircraft filling up.
What happens if the weather is bad?
A flight never departs in degraded conditions: the decision rests with the pilot, usually the day before. The flight is then postponed, or refunded, according to the operator's own terms — we reproduce them word for word on each page, before any request.
Can children fly?
Yes, from the age of 2 on most aircraft, and on an adult's lap below that age depending on the operator. Each passenger's weight is requested at booking so the aircraft can be correctly balanced.
