Up, Up and Away in Majorca

Spain hotels


Hiring a car or jumping on a guided bus tour is one cool way to get around in Majorca, and hiring a boat is another. Neither of these are as awesome, though, as flying over it in a helicopter, and seeing the island from a whole new angle altogether.

You don't get to see much on your flights to Majorca in a regular aeroplane, so sit back and take in the scenery as your pilot flies you and up to two other passengers over the island. Just have your cameras at the ready as they'll be pointing out all the sights for you to see from an exhilarating height.

Sloane Helicopters offers sightseeing tours of 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes, starting at €299. Their ultra-modern Robinson R44 helicopters can carry up to 3 passengers, and are the only way to see the island for true thrill seekers.

Get into the Pilot's Seat in Majorca

It's not enough for some to just fly inside an aircraft though - and an opportunity to fly a helicopter themselves would make your holidays to Majorca unforgettable. Helicentre Mallorca is a British-owned company, established in 1986 that offer helicopter pilot lessons.

If you're heading to Majorca with a special person, a helicopter lesson would make a perfect surprise, or if you've ever thought about having a lesson yourself, there couldn't be a more stunning setting for it.

At the Aerodrome de Son Bonet, rookie pilots will relax before the flight with a pre-flight video before discussing the route they'd like to take on their lesson with their personal instructor, who will be with them every step of the way. These lessons will also be recorded and the time spent in the air can be put towards a Private Pilots' Licence, in case a one-off experience wasn't enough.

Holidays to Majorca are available from Jet2holidays.com from a number of British airports, and are sure to put you in the mood to get airborne!
