By: helicopter tours Home | Travel-and-Leisure | Aviation


Please note that all the information listed below is part of our standard operating procedure. However, weather conditions may force us to change flight altitudes or routing.

Please arrive 20 minutes before your departure time to complete tickets and receive a safety briefing. If you arrive late for your booking we will do our best to accommodate you immediately but reserve the right to postpone your flight until the next available time slot.

You are welcome to take pictures or film during the flight.

If you have a pair of sunglasses or a cap, bring them along.

The temperature as a standard drops by 1.98 degrees celcious every 1000 ft. We suggest a jacket if you are flying in the winter months (June "' August). Summer should be just perfect.

Standard Cruise Altitude for our peninsula tours is 2 500ft or 762 meters (weather depending).

We are no longer allowed to fly over the top of Table Mountain as it is has been designated as part of a national park and is a protected area.
SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

Clients are required by Civil Aviation Regulation to sign a ticket before they fly; and to pay attention to the safety briefing given by NAC Makana staff before take-off.

NAC Makana does not carry dangerous goods of any class. If you are not sure please refer to the chart located at the front desk or check with one of our staff members.

For weight and balance calculations please advise NAC Makana in advance should one of the passengers weigh in excess of 100 Kilograms.

If at anytime a passenger becomes a danger to him/herself or other passengers, is under the influence of alcohol or displays unruly behaviour that person shall not be allowed to board the aircraft and will be asked to leave the premises immediately.
