I took a ride with Destination Air last year, excellent! I was surprised to see they had been forced to close – but I do believe there was some “politics” involved there…

Have you taken a helicopter ride in Phuket? I’d be very interested to see your comments.

I took a helicopter ride with my Thai partner when we were over in Las Vegas. That was to the Grand Canyon and I think was about $160 a pop including champagne and sandwiches. I guess it hasn’t taken off here in quite the same way as tourists want to melt into the sand rather than see the stunning scenery which, whilst it doen’t quite reach Grand Canyon standards, is still pretty amazing.
