In addition, Panhandle Helicopter provides a
range of commercial services, including aerial photography, land and crop surveillance, and even
frost protection for local farmers. They also operate as a factory-authorized maintenance facility for
R22, R44, and R66 helicopter models, offering professional servicing and support for aircraft owners
in the region.
Reservations are recommended, especially
during peak vacation months, but walk-ins are welcome when the weather cooperates. The team
operates seven days a week from 10 a.m. until sunset, ensuring there’s plenty of time to catch the
perfect flight.
There are a few important details to keep in
mind. Each seat has a 300-pound weight limit, and
total passenger weight is limited to 550 pounds
per flight, depending on weather and flight conditions. Because flights are weather-dependent,
flexibility is key — if it’s too windy or rainy, they’ll
help you reschedule for a better time.
What really makes Panhandle Helicopter special is its local, family-owned spirit. This isn’t a big
corporate tour operation — it’s a small team of passionate professionals who love what they do. Their
deep roots in the community and their enthusiasm for sharing the Gulf Coast with others give the
experience an authentic, welcoming feel that
will make for unforgettable memories.
Guests often describe the flights as one of
the highlights of their vacation. From seeing sea
turtles gliding through clear water to catching
a glimpse of dolphins racing the surf, the view
from above never disappoints. The calm hum of
the helicopter, the sparkling coastline stretching
out in every direction, and the feeling of floating
above paradise make this experience one you’ll
never forget.
Whether you’re looking for a quick thrill,
a romantic date idea, or a way to make your
Panama City Beach vacation unforgettable,
