    Wow! What an amazing way to get a birds-eye view of beautiful San Diego! Thank you so much the guys at Corporate Helicopter for making my birthday so amazing Friendly Professional Knowledgeable

    Son's 16th years old Birthday ride
    Schaun D.

    Let me start off with the location. When you drive down the street to their location you will keep straight on that rode. Until you get to the end and they are located right in front of you. Look for their logo on the building. We walked in and we greeted immediately and were told to have a seat and in a few minutes we would watch a video on the aircraft. We watch the video and that was it. Until the pilot walked in and greeted us to takes us to the aircraft. So here's the back story. When I set up the entire thing on their website it talked about weights of each person. So I selected what I that was appropriate. I received and email stating the time I selected in the PM was not available and needed to select another time. So I did, however while doing that I received a call that went voice mail. Later I called and was asked about body weights. Well who carries a scale around with them. As a US ARMY Jump master and Rappel master(Retired) weight is critical I have jumped and rappelled out of many helicopters but the only way to verify anything is a scale. THAT DID NOT HAPPEN!!! We did not get weighed at all. To verify official we were over the rated capacity of the aircraft. Back to the phone call, since I was not sure but weights and I wanted at least my son and his friend to fly I said take me off so we would fall well below that rated capacity. Right before the call was ended I mentioned getting on the scale to verify I was over. The gentleman said that we would all be weighed and it was not a problem........Well there would stood with the pilot at the aircraft about to get in....So I told the pilot that I was told we were all together over weight for this type of aircraft. The pilot immediately asked were we weighed and I said NO WERE NOT WEIGHED. He said the last thing he was told he had three passengers, than we discussed weight with fuel , he even pulled the calculator on his phone and said we were over just by words and again no scale. I did not get in the aircraft. The pilot called the front office and the young man at the check in came with golf cart to pick me up. I went back to the check in area and waited for the flight to be over. While at the check area I asked about the scale and sure enough the young man pulled out a small step on scale, he did mention calibration of the scale. So I stepped on it and was 7 lbs. over. So not to be so graphic, if anyone knows about weight and food in your bowels that weight could change with a visit to the bathroom. I apologize for where I went. Also while there I learned they have bigger aircraft that can take more weight but no pilots availability. So they do have the capability for all of us to fly at one time, that should be posted somewhere on their site. If it is than I don't recall seeing anything about larger aircraft availability. So if you're going to do this flight be tiny small people no one can be over 6 foot 1 inch unless the use a bigger aircraft. Call them before and get all the information. When you check in verify the total weight with a proper calibrated scale. Lastly if you runs a business and have the capacity to offer other options for the experience than say that. Don't let a potential customer find out later that the possibility was present but do to extenuating circumstance it could not happen that day. Maybe saying something like in a week, month come back and you all can fly at the same time. My son did like the flight over all. I rated 3 stars because the other Pilot for the bigger helicopter was not available. Like I always say try it you may just like it.

    Had a great time flying with Terry. My girlfriend and I were cracking up the whole time in the helicopter with Terry as our Pilot. We recommend flying with Corporate Helicopters!

    My MIL and I did the 42 minute "Unforgettable" tour with Terry and had an absolute blast! He made the experience so much fun and I learned so many things about San Diego that I didn't know despite living here for 3+ years. Not only was he a total comedian but he was also professional and kind. It was so amazing and breathtaking to see so much of San Diego from an aerial view! The whole process of booking the tour was super easy and the staff was very friendly as well - they even called and gave options to move our time to later in the day if the weather didn't clear up so we would have the best views and experience possible. Totally recommend Terry and Corporate Helicopters!

    Terri was a great pilot! We had an amazing experience during our first helicopter ride. He welcomed us in with champagne and chocolates. It was beautiful to see the sights of San Diego from up above. I'm definitely going to recommend my friends and family to take a helicopter tour someday! :)

    My girlfriend has always mentioned wanting to go on a helicopter as I was hesitant about it. We booked a tour with Corporate Helicopter and we're completely happy with our tour. We had Terry as our pilot. He was such a funny, outgoing and knowledgeable person throughout our tour. He made us laugh quite a bit, gave us information about areas in San Diego we didn't know about and made us feel welcome and comfortable in our flight. We definitely recommend booking a tour with this company, and if you get lucky you will get to see Terry's dance moves! We had so much fun! No regrets at all!

    It was my 50th Birthday and I wanted to take a helicopter tour. After looking at reviews I knew Corporate Helicopters was the company and Terry was my pilot! He did not disappoint! I wanted views, history, instruction, and FUNNN! Terry is a ball of Fun and made my husband feel totally at ease as he was a bit nervous. The views was spectacular! Terry did not slack on safety either. He informed us from the time we approached the helicopter until we made it back to the office what steps we needed to take to remain safe. If you are thinking about taking a helicopter tour, Corporate Helicopters has an array of options including a winery tour. Make sure you request Terry if you're ready for some fun, and beautiful views!

    The flight around San Diego with Corporate Helicopters was amazing, especially with our pilot Terry. Not only did he share great historical knowledge of San Diego he made the ride as pleasant as possible, even with the rough winds. My wife and I will definitely be back.

    We had an AMAZING sunset flight with Collin! My BF surprised me for our 7th anniversary and my 30th birthday weekend with a flight. I only regret not having a better camera to document the amazing and iconic San Diego sights we saw and how gorgeous and clear everything was! 10/10 recommend! We are definitely planning another date to experience it all again! thank y'all for helping make this a sweet experience

    We had a great time. 30 minute ride for 2 people came out to be $414 (tax included). The website is easy to use . Everyone was super welcoming. The safety video was informative. Our pilot was wonderful. We are most definitely coming back!!

    I highly recommend this company! I booked a helicopter tour for my husband's 40th birthday and we couldn't be happier! Terry ( the pilot) leveled up our experience! He is a funny, kind and interesting guy. We had so much fun with him. As a former radio broadcaster, Terry keeps the energy level as high as the altitude! He is extremely knowledgeable of the land including to architects of the Building and local pop culture. Thank you Terry and thank you corporate helicopter team :)

    What a fantastic experience!! We were looking for some good options to celebrate our 8th years of Anniversary. Due to COVID-19 we had to get a Delight tour instead of winery but still what a great Ride ! Terry was our pilot, He is professional and friendly. He opened our Champagne before flight which was really nice of him also His great attitude was a reason my wife forgot about fear of height . Highly recommended and make sure to fly with Terry , he makes it even more fun

    Excellent experience and amazing service. For my wife's 40th birthday I booked a helicopter tour with the winery lunch and everything was perfect. It was very easy to book and they gave plenty of information before our flight. The day of, we flew with Terry and he was awesome. He was professional, safe, super friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area. You can tell he truly loves what he does. The flight to the winery was beautiful. When we arrived Terry helped us get checked in for our private wine tasting. After spending some time at the winery we were off again. On the way back we did a bit of a longer ride over the coastline. It was an unforgettable experience to be able to see and learn about the area from that vantage point. We were sad when the tour ended, but happy with how the day went and so glad we booked with Corporate Helicopters. My wife who was initially a bit nervous, said that she would 100% do it again.

    Is this... heaven...??? This view is top 5 job dropping views of my life. If you find yourself in…read moresd then you MUST GO to this spot. It's crazy beautiful and peaceful. I felt like I was transported. I didn't get to the activity unfortunately but it looks beautiful to try! They have tons of parking and cafe for a relaxing day. The top time to go is sunset!!

    Torrey Pines Gliderport is definitely one of those "you should try this at least once" experiences…read more We came on a beautiful sunny day, and the flight itself was surprisingly calming. It's not like skydiving or bungee jumping where it's all adrenaline and dope. This felt more like borrowing a bird's point of view for 20 minutes. You're just floating along the cliffs, riding the wind, with the ocean on one side and the coastline stretching out below. The views are unreal. You get Black's Beach below! Yes, the clothing-optional one. And then farther down, the multi-million-dollar La Jolla homes that make you question your life choices. LOL. Depending on the wind, the route can vary, but that's part of the charm. My instructor was mostly quiet, which was fine, but I would have appreciated a little more narration or pointing things out. My wife's instructor, on the other hand, was much more lively and even let her steer the glider a couple of times. So your experience may depend a bit on who you fly with. Either way, the flight itself was great, and both instructors got us back safely and smoothly. A small side note: we saw the tipping guide inside the office only after the flight. In retrospect, I think we overtipped - but hey, the instructors seemed happy, so all good. Now, for the things you don't always see in the pretty Yelp reviews. Parking is mostly on an unpaved, bumpy, dusty lot. You can park on pavement along the side streets, but that means parallel parking and a bit of a walk. The waiver process was also a big "whoa." I've done plenty of risky activities before, but this felt like pages of cover-your-butt paperwork, with us signing and initialing almost every single line instead of just signing once and clicking through. Also, be aware that some grassy areas are apparently off-limits. My family and I were taking photos there, not realizing we weren't supposed to be, and we got shooed away pretty hard. I get that there are safety rules, especially around active gliders, but clearer signage would help a lot. And if there was signage, it was difficult to notice with the crowd hanging around Cliff Hanger. And yes, the restroom situation is porta-potties only. On the day we visited, there wasn't even water available for handwashing, so bring sanitizer. Overall, the actual flight was memorable, scenic, and peaceful. The setup around it is a little rough around the edges, but the experience itself is worth doing once, especially on a sunny San Diego day. For the views alone, it's hard to beat floating over the cliffs of Torrey Pines.

So we surprised him with a Blood Pumpin thrill…read moreride " FLY YOUR PLANE " I called him to come home right away and said that he was still GOLFING with his Dad. I just said okay then I will cancel our " THE AFTERBURNER FLIGHT ". The moment he heard it, I heard him yelling, Dad packed it up, mom called. They came home to hug me and says let's go, mom. So we arrive at the place in EL CAJON SAN DIEGO and saw a lot of planes but we were instructed to wait outside for safety reasons because there were a lot of planes coming in and out and only get in when a PILOT comes to pick us up. we CHOSE the FLIGHT called .... "AFTERBURNER FLIGHT " ... it's a flight you can "FLY YOUR PLANE", take control and Maneuver it with the supervision of course of a Highly trained Pilot. When it's my son's turn to fly, we are greeted by a very nice Pilot. The FIRST thing we did was go to the briefing room with our Pilot where we watch the Safety and Rules while Flying. I was too nervous while my son was getting ready and my son was just relaxed and have this big smile like he is so excited about it. We watch them start flying out until they just disappeared from our sight. A couple of hours later they came back and my son start talking about the different kinds of Exhibitions they did. Some examples of what they did were: *The inside loop *The outside loop *The Aileron Roll *The Tailside *Stall Turn * Falling Leaf My son was very Happy about his flight and says: "BEST EXPERIENCE to FLY a PLANE" and did "Stunts" in the air.
