Glamorous Getaway Ahead

When was the last time you treated your special someone and yourself to some quality one-on-one time? And now, Netflix and chill does not count. We are talking about time spent with each other, away from the everyday drudgery, indulging in something…well…new and exciting. Together.
If the honest answer is something along the lines of “I don’t recall” never fear; firstly, you’re not alone, because finding the time to organize and execute even the shortest mini-break can be really, really hard – and secondly, Pterodactyl Helicopters has just the overnight getaway package you are looking for.

The genius switch is never off in our entertainment headquarters, true, but that does not mean we cannot outdo ourselves once in a while.
Our Fly In/Drive Out Country Escapes are one excellent example of what happens when all the right ingredients come together to create one outrageously amazing recipe for success.
Here’s how it works:

First, you and your beloved choose one of our partner retreats…yes, this is the hard part. We are currently offering getaways to Scenic Rim View Cottages, Spicers Peak Lodge, Branell Homestead, Woodlands of Marburg, Bunyip Cottages, Stockton Rise Country Retreat and Spicers Hidden Vale. All of our select destinations offer luxurious accommodation in a beautiful setting; so if you can’t decide, feel free to solve the matter by tossing a coin. With Pterodactyl Helicopters’ options, you can’t lose either way.
Once the tricky bit is out of the way, all you need to do is choose dates that suit you and get ready for the time of your life.

The Fly In/ Drive Out experience begins with a scenic flight from your nominated pick-up location (Brisbane Airport, City Hotels, Archerfield, Ipswich CBD and our Lake Manchester Hangar are the staple pick-up spots; however, we can be quite flexible if you have somewhere else in mind). No matter where you choose to go, we will make sure you see all the best bits along the way while we get you there in style.

At your destination you will be met with sparkling wine and delicious cheese – a little precursor to the gourmet three-course dinner also included in this package – and your own (or hired) car, to give you the freedom to properly explore your new surroundings at your leisure.

But how did the car get there? we hear you ask. Well…either one of Pterodactyl Helicopters’ dedicated ground crew goes for a road trip while you enjoy the view from above OR – and we’re really quite pleased with this solution – you get one of your mates to drive it up for you, with the incentive that we will take him home in the helicopter, free of charge. (Note: We have found this to be a very effective incentive indeed).

Whether you stay one night or two, this mini-break is guaranteed to leave you refreshed, inspired and feeling a little like one of those power couple that jet about in private aircrafts…in short, you’ll be feeling the love.
