Had a NEAR MISS upon returning to the Quail Air Center in Las Vegas after our 10 minute flight was done on August 9, 2021 (flight scheduled for 8:30 pm)! An airplane was taxiing when we returned and we had to circle around, so we had priority. Another helicopter almost flew into ours from our right side. It flew just under our helicopter and our pilot pulled up in the nick of time 😰. I filmed the whole thing and would’ve uploaded if I could. I took this picture from my video. The helicopter went under ours and I saw it emerge just under the pilot’s seat and flew up to the left. I swear it was like 25 feet away! Besides being scared out of my mind, the flight was nice and seeing Las Vegas this way was cool. I wanted to speak with someone afterwards but my son just wanted to leave. Update: I received an email followed by a call from executive management that this incident was reported to the FAA and that the other helicopter operator (5 Star) will face consequences. I sent my video which is being used to document what occurred. I understand it was not the fault of Papillon’s pilot, rather his reaction saved all our lives. I’m changing my rating because if this incident hadn’t occurred, I would have thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Grace was our pilot. She was fabulous. The tour was fun and beautiful. This truly is the only way to really see the magnificent Grand Canyon. The staff who greeted us was great and informative as well.

This is a great flying outfit. They were always very happy to talk to me about our tour and checking on details. The bus was clean and on time. The reception area was clean and the staff efficient and friendly. The pilots were fun dudes and had a great attitude. The tour for us was superb but a little pressed for time. We recommend if you choose to take a chopper down to the canyon floor and taking the subsequent boat ride…you skip the skywalk. Don’t skip taking the bus to guano point. We also recommend you go on this tour in the cooler seasons if you suffer from heat medically or if you are prone to heat injury. During the summer the plane isn’t air conditioned. It’s not roasting in there but it’s hot. It is a very breathtaking tour though and is a wonder to see. This is a great way to get there and it’s worth every cent.

Highly recommend the air, helicopter, boat tour of the grand canyon. My husband, sister and kids made a party of 6 and we had a wonderful, memorable day taking in the grand canyon from all the vantage points.

I am not a person that's used to luxury only moderate comfort. This was quite an adventure for me and well worth it. The transportation to and from our hotel was excellent but by far Ali our pilot was outstanding and made the trip even more special. If you ever thought about doing something awesome in Las Vegas I highly recommend a chopper tour with papillion helicopters!
