Helicopter charter in Bali: routes, prices and operators
The short answer
A private helicopter charter in Bali is published at IDR 21,700,000 from Ungasan to Nusa Penida for up to 4 people (IDR 24,900,000 for up to 6), IDR 39,000,000 to 49,000,000 to the Gili Islands, and IDR 25,600,000 to 29,600,000 from a heliport near the airport to Ubud, on operator prices read on 10 November 2026. The lowest published Ubud transfer option is IDR 6,900,000 on a shared flight. None of the operator pages we read publishes an airport to Uluwatu or a Lombok transfer price.

- Balicopter flies from a heliport in the Nusa Dua area and lists further locations in Pecatu, Canggu and Gili Trawangan. Its fleet page describes Robinson R66 helicopters seating 4 passengers, and says 6, 9 and 11 seat helicopters can be arranged on request. Its home page lists transfers to Nusa Penida, the Gili Islands and Ubud, priced per seat and booked by message.
- Fly Bali flies from three heliports: its own at Ungasan, Pesanggaran in Denpasar, and Mason Elephant Park at Taro for Ubud. It lists Bell 505, Robinson R66, Bell 206L-3 and Bell 206L-4 helicopters, and also flies in Labuan Bajo and Sumba.
- SGi Air Bali flies from Benoa Heliport. Its main tours take up to 6 people per flight. It says it flies transfers to Lombok, the Gili Islands, Labuan Bajo and Sumba, and from the airport to resorts and villas. It gives prices as a quote on request, and says transfer pricing depends on distance, flight duration and destination.
These are private charter and tour flights. For medical flights, see our guide to hospitals and medical evacuation.
How much does a helicopter cost on the common routes?
Private transfers published by Fly Bali, as read on 10 November 2026, run from IDR 19,500,000 for Nusa Lembongan to IDR 49,000,000 for the Gili Islands, and scenic tours start at IDR 2,290,000 a seat.
Nusa Penida. Fly Bali publishes IDR 21,700,000 for a private 18-minute flight from Ungasan for up to 4 people, IDR 24,900,000 for up to 6, and IDR 15,900,000 for a shared flight that covers up to 2 people. From its Taro heliport near Ubud the private price is IDR 29,900,000 for up to 4.
Nusa Lembongan. Fly Bali publishes IDR 19,500,000 private for up to 4 from Ungasan, and IDR 12,700,000 shared for up to 2.
The Gili Islands. Fly Bali publishes a 40-minute flight from IDR 39,000,000 (private, up to 4, from Pesanggaran) to IDR 49,000,000 (private, up to 5, from Ungasan or Taro). The option for up to 2, which Fly Bali describes as a non-private flight shared with other passengers, is IDR 27,900,000 to IDR 29,000,000.
Airport to Ubud. Fly Bali's Ubud transfer leaves from its Pesanggaran heliport, which it says is about 10 minutes from the airport, with a free private car for that leg. The 15-minute flight is IDR 6,900,000 for the shared option labelled one passenger, IDR 12,900,000 for the shared option labelled two, IDR 25,600,000 private for up to 4 and IDR 29,600,000 private for up to 6. It lands at Taro, Payangan or Tegenungan.
Uluwatu. No operator page we read publishes a price for a flight from the airport to Uluwatu. Fly Bali's own heliport is in Ungasan. Short scenic flights over Uluwatu are priced: Fly Bali's 12-minute A Taste of Bali is IDR 2,700,000 a seat or IDR 7,400,000 private for up to 4, and Balicopter's 15-minute Uluwatu tour is IDR 3,399,000 a seat or IDR 10,499,000 private for up to 4.
Lombok. SGi Air Bali lists a two-hour Wonderful Lombok tour for up to 6 people, with no published price. None of the operator pages we read publishes a Lombok transfer price.
Longer tours. Fly Bali's 66-minute Volcanoes Temples tour is IDR 40,700,000 private for up to 4. Balicopter's tours from its Nusa Dua heliport run from IDR 2,290,000 a seat for 10 minutes to IDR 20,999,000 a seat for its 100-minute All Bali tour, or IDR 64,999,000 for the whole helicopter.
What changes the price of a helicopter charter?
Six things change the price: whether it is per seat or per helicopter, group size and weight, flight time, landing fees and the ground leg, card fees, and cancellation terms.
Per seat or per helicopter. Check this first. Balicopter's terms say shared tours are priced per passenger and private charters per helicopter. Its headline figures are per seat, with the whole-helicopter price on each tour page. Fly Bali prices each option by the number of people it covers, so its "shared, up to 2" price covers two people, not one. Balicopter's terms say a shared tour may carry unrelated passengers, and that the operator decides how guests are seated.
Group size and weight. A private price covers a set number of people, and a weight limit applies too. Fly Bali's transfer pages give a 350 kg limit for passengers and luggage together. Balicopter's terms set four passengers per helicopter unless stated otherwise and 130 kg per person. SGi Air Bali gives a maximum payload for each tour, such as 580 kg on its 42-minute Signature of Bali. Balicopter and SGi Air Bali ask for each passenger's name, ID and body weight before the flight.
Flight time. Prices climb with minutes in the air. SGi Air Bali counts flying time from engine start to engine stop, and says that if a transfer takes longer than quoted for reasons outside its control, the extra time is charged.
Landing fees and the ground leg. SGi Air Bali's terms say its prices include 11% VAT and flight insurance, but landing fees for transfers are charged separately and vary by landing site. Fly Bali includes a car from the airport to its Pesanggaran heliport on the Ubud route. Balicopter lists hotel pickup and extra landings as paid add-ons. Ask who pays for the car at the far end, and whether your villa or resort has a place to land. If a manager runs your villa, see our villa management guide.
Card fees. SGi Air Bali adds 2.5% for Visa or Mastercard and 3.5% for AMEX. Balicopter says card processing fees may apply.
Cancellation. Fly Bali charges 10% for cancelling within 7 days and 50% within 24 hours, and IDR 1,000,000 to reschedule with more than 48 hours' notice. Balicopter refunds in full up to 24 hours before departure or before pre-flight registration, whichever comes first. SGi Air Bali refunds in full 7 or more days out and keeps 100% on the day. All three fly in daylight only, and weather can cancel a flight.
Who holds the licence to fly you?
In Indonesia, a company that flies paying passengers must hold an Air Operator Certificate. The Aviation Law of 2009 requires one for commercial air transport, and an operator must first hold a commercial air transport business licence, own or control the aircraft, and have qualified crew, maintenance staff and written standards. Operating without one carries penalties of up to two years in prison or a fine of up to Rp2.5 billion.
The brand you book with is not always the company that holds the certificate. Balicopter's terms say the brand is owned by a booking company, PT Nebesa Nusantara Utama, and that flights are operated by licensed certificate holders. Its operator page names PT Volta Pasifik Aviasi as holding an AOC 135. SGi Air Bali's site names Sayap Garuda Indah. Fly Bali's policy refers to approvals from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). Ask any operator for the name of the certificate holder for your flight.
This is not legal advice. Aviation rules change. Confirm with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation or a licensed professional if it matters to you.
