So, from this case, i guess you must be thinking is it even worth riding a helicopter to check off from your "bucket list" anymore. Well, don't worry because, in today's blog, we got you covered for the first time on a helicopter ride before, during, and even after to make sure you're alert of everything.

Before

First of all, and also one of the most important tips is to get a trustworthy and reliable company that provides helicopter rides. Yes, it can be expensive but is it better than getting a ride from sketchy companies with a too-good-to-be-true price? As we'll know, safety is the priority. Also, it's vital to request for a morning schedule, even though the night city view may be stunning. Still, flights in the morning usually are smoother as there will be better visibility compared during the night, where you may not see what's around you. When given a briefing on safety instructions, make sure to listen to all and never hesitate to ask any questions from your curiosity, because you might learn something new from this. 

When speaking about the outfits, yes, of course, you would want to look the best when you're on a helicopter but to be safe, wear long pants as well a light jacket as the temperature will be colder once you get up there. If preferably, is dark-coloured outfits as it will help minimize the glare on the helicopter's window. This next point is for all the girls/ladies out there, make sure you do not wear any dankly or loose jewellery accessories such as long earrings, necklaces, hat, sunglasses. To add on, avoid wearing open footwears such as sandals and flip flops and for you ladies who have long hair, make sure to pull it back. Besides, holding lose items such as a mobile phone for your "insta-worthy" post might increase the chance of having it blown away. If you're sensitive to noises, bring earplugs, even though they will provide you with noise-cancelling headphones.

During

When onboard, only follow instructions based on what has been briefed, especially on the part of using a safety belt, your seat assignment and if you may or not move when on board. Do keep in mind that the weight of the helicopter has to be balanced to fly the aircraft safely and adequately, so the seating is of the passengers is essential. 

This one's for all the photographers, of the helicopter, is without doors and you want to be taking pictures, make sure you have a strap around your neck that you can have it hanging around your neck. Besides that, if you want to good and sharp quality photos, it is better to use a camera with high-speed film or settings. To avoid reflections, hold the camera near the window but make sure not to touch the window itself so there will be no vibration. 

After

It is the end of your ride; you cannot wait to get off the flight because you have to go to the washroom. But wait, the go signal of the pilot before you alight from the helicopter is not given. Be patient, hold on to the pee because you'll be on your way to the washroom very soon. Once the pilot gives the signal, make the same exit as how you first approach the helicopter before the trip; by which departing through the front of the helicopter; while staying crouched. After all these given tips, we hope that you will have a fun experience for your first helicopter ride! Most importantly, make sure to stay safe and to keep yourself alert when on board as you might not know what you can witness and capture!
