How it works

Four steps,
no fuss.

01
Choose the experience
Pick the aircraft and the length of flight. If you are unsure, ring us and we will help you choose rather than push you to the dearest one.
02
Add your message
Their name, your name and whatever you want to say. It all appears on the voucher.
03
The voucher arrives
A personalised PDF lands in your inbox, ready to print. Or we can email it straight to them on a date you choose.
04
They book the flight
They ring Arcus quoting the code and arrange a date that suits them, any time in the next 12 months.

Before you buy

Worth knowing
in advance.

How long is the voucher valid?+

Twelve months from the date of purchase. Ask them to book well before it runs out, because availability cannot be guaranteed at short notice, particularly in summer.

Can I have it sent straight to them?+

Yes, and you can choose the date it arrives. Or leave the recipient email blank and the PDF comes to you to print and hand over yourself.

Can I go with them and watch?+

You are very welcome at the airfield, but not in the helicopter. Trial lessons are for the student and instructor only, whatever the seating capacity of the aircraft.

What if they are too heavy for the aircraft I choose?+

Ring us and we will sort it out. The limit is 14 stone (90 kg) on the R22 and 18 stone (115 kg) on the R44 and Bell 206 JetRanger. If you are unsure, the R44 or Bell is the safer choice.

What if the weather is bad on their day?+

We simply rebook them, at no extra cost. Flying is weather dependent and that decision is always made on safety grounds.

Can I buy a voucher for a specific amount instead?+

At the moment the vouchers are tied to a specific experience rather than an open value. If you want something different, ring us on 0115 982 6090 and we will see what we can do.
