Chase the moon's shadow from above in a private helicopter, positioning above low cloud with an unobstructed panoramic view of the full eclipse sequence — the ultimate aerial encounter with totality.
What to expect
Your dedicated pilot files a flight plan designed around the path of totality, adjusting in real time to avoid any cloud interference. At altitude, the moon's shadow visibly races across the landscape below — a sight impossible from the ground. The pilot banks the helicopter to give every passenger a direct line of sight as the corona bursts into view. High-resolution photography opportunities are exceptional; the landscape below transitions from day to night in real time.
Good to know
Maximum 4 passengers per aircraft. Weight limits apply — confirm at booking. Allow a 3-hour window from port; the flight itself is typically 60–90 minutes. Ear protection and a light layer are provided.
