Our experience was beautiful while up in the helicopter. Take off and landing were smooth. I paid for the 80$ flight which was supposed to be 15 miles and 30 minutes. We were up in the air approximately 11 minutes. It was made rather clear that our pilot wasn’t that interested in flying that day. My husband and I were very excited about this adventure, but felt as though we were an inconvenience that day. We weren’t greeted by the pilot. He stated “wouldn’t you rather cancel and stay in the AC” which didn’t feel too joking honestly. He never told us his name, my husband finally introduced us and asked his name. I think this place probably has potential, but we caught the pilot on a day he wasn’t really wanting to fly. I definitely wish I hadn’t paid the extra money because we didn’t get much flight time at all. Helicopter was clean and well maintained and it was clear the pilot knew what he was doing. Smooth flight, just a bit uncomfortable as we didn’t feel very welcomed.

We enjoyed the ride on the helicopter itself. When we arrived at the time requested, there was nobody there. No signs to say it was Aerocopter or anything. We saw a man wiping down the helicopter and asked if we were in the right place and he yelled back rudely that he would be right there. Gave us his instructions and acted like he would rather be anywhere but there. I will not come again and would not reccomend.

Wonderful helicopter ride! Beautiful views of S Padre Island and the Port. Gentle take off and landing by the pilot. Highly recommended.

We recently took our first helicopter ride in Port A., and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we took off, the views were absolutely breathtaking. Seeing the coastline and city from above was a whole new perspective, and we loved every minute of it. The pilot was professional and made us feel safe while still giving us a thrilling ride. It was such a fun and unique way to explore Port A., and we’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for an adventure!
