Coast. Bay. Lake District.

Two Lancashire launch points. Two very different views.

Blackpool Airport puts the Fylde coast straight into the experience. Its eight current choices start with a five minute Pleasure Beach buzz and build through Blackpool Tower, beaches and town sightseeing to a 30 minute route reaching beyond the resort towards Morecambe Bay.

Greenlands Farm Village near Carnforth takes the scenery in another direction. Its 11-choice range starts with Morecambe Bay, develops into Lake District views and reaches the Lake District (South) and Windermere Tour, with a private 60 minute flight available when you want to make the helicopter journey the main event.

Lancashire from the air

Blackpool coast. Morecambe Bay. Lake District beyond.

Blackpool is the choice when you want an unmistakable place beneath the helicopter. Even the shorter flights are tied to the resort, with the Pleasure Beach and Tower becoming part of the experience as soon as you climb away from Blackpool Airport.

Stay airborne longer and the coastline gets more room to unfold. The 25 mile flight brings Blackpool town, beaches and Tower together, while the 30 minute sightseeing tour extends the journey along Blackpool Beach and towards Morecambe Bay.

Carnforth changes the scale of the view. Morecambe Bay appears early in the range, then the Lake District begins to take over. The 30 minute sightseeing choices reach the Lake District (South) and Windermere, while the private 60 minute flight gives you a full hour to make the journey itself the occasion.
