Description

Context Mallorca offers a unique aerial perspective through scenic helicopter flights departing from Son Bonet Airport, located just minutes from Palma. This airfield provides quick access to established flight routes that combine the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Serra de Tramuntana with coastal landscapes and the urban center. The Robinson R44 helicopter, accommodating up to three passengers, delivers a stable and immersive flight experience close to the terrain, where the wind carries the salty scent of the Mediterranean.

The experience After a safety briefing at Son Bonet, you’ll board the helicopter for a 30- to 60-minute journey. You’ll glide over the mountain range, its dramatic cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation, the picturesque village of Valldemossa with its terracotta rooftops and surrounding peaks, the port of Sóller, and the coastal stretch. The flight concludes with a sweeping aerial view of Palma, where the Castle of Bellver and the Gothic Cathedral stand out against the city skyline. The rhythmic sound of the rotor enhances the sensation of weightlessness and calm.

It’s ideal for couples seeking an intimate experience, families with children over 4 years old (using a special child seat), and amateur aerial photographers. Not recommended for passengers weighing over 120 kg or those with limited mobility unless special adaptations are available.
