点评:Quite the experience! I have heard that if you want to do a helicopter tour, then Kauai is one of the “best places” to do it. Very professional company. You receive a safety briefing before your flight. Seating is determined by your weight. They discretely weigh each passenger at sign in. Seating is 2 in the front and 4 in the back. There really isn’t a bad seat in the house as our pilot Barrett made sure both sides of the aircraft got good views. The narration and information provided during the flight was much appreciated. One passenger had some concerns and appreciated being told of any possible turbulence (which were small and nothing greater than what I have experienced on a commercial jet). We went on a slightly rainy morning flight. While we experienced some rain in flight, it really did not affect the view. It may have even enhanced the tour as there were several rainbows. This is the only way to see parts of the island that are largely inaccessible unless you are willing and have the time to do some serious hiking. Definitely a “bucket list” item. I’ll be looking forward to doing similar flights elsewhere provided they are offered and available. We did the package where you are provided a video of your flight (which I would also recommend). That way, you can enjoy / appreciate the beauty of Kauai without getting distracted about whether you are getting the “right image” during flight. I cannot recommend this company enough.
翻译:体验太棒了!我听说如果你想体验直升机之旅,考艾岛是“最佳地点”之一。公司非常专业。飞行前会进行安全简报。座位根据体重确定。他们会在签到时单独称量每位乘客的体重。座位是前排2个,后排4个。我们的飞行员Barrett确保了飞机两侧都能获得良好的视野,所以这里没有哪个座位不好。飞行过程中提供的解说和信息非常令人欣慰。一位乘客有些担心,很感谢有人告知我们可能遇到的湍流(湍流很小,比我在商用飞机上遇到的湍流更严重)。我们乘坐的是早上略带小雨的航班。虽然飞行途中遇到了一些雨,但这并没有影响视野。甚至可能因为出现了几道彩虹而增强了旅程的体验。这是游览岛上大部分地区(除非你愿意并且有时间进行一些严肃的徒步旅行)的唯一方式。这绝对是“愿望清单”上的一项。如果其他地方有类似的航班,我也很期待。我们订的是包含飞行视频的套餐(我也会推荐)。这样,你就可以尽情欣赏考艾岛的美景,而不用担心在飞行过程中是否拍到了“合适的照片”。我强烈推荐这家公司。
