If you’ve ever driven down to the Avalon Australian International Airshow, you’ll know that getting there can sometimes be half the battle. Long stretches of traffic, queues approaching the event, parking delays and, once you’ve finally arrived, potentially a fairly long walk from the car park to the entrance.
So, here’s a thought. Why not leave all of that behind and make getting to the Airshow part of the experience?
For the 2027 Avalon Australian International Airshow, Leisure Heli Tours is planning helicopter transfers from Essendon Airport, offering both private and shared helicopter flights on the Trade Days and Public Days.
And honestly, if 2025 was anything to go by, 2027 is shaping up to be even bigger and better!
Why drive when you can fly?
One of the biggest advantages of travelling by helicopter is the time you save.
A helicopter transfer from Essendon Airport to Avalon takes approximately 20–25 minutes, depending on weather and operating conditions.
Compare that with spending potentially hours on the road, sitting in traffic and then navigating the car park queues. Instead, you can enjoy a scenic flight across the Melbourne region and arrive at the Airshow feeling relaxed and ready for the day.
It’s not just about saving time, either. The flight itself is a pretty spectacular way to start your Airshow experience.
Imagine lifting off from Essendon, watching Melbourne’s landscape unfold beneath you and heading towards one of Australia’s biggest aviation events. For anyone who loves aircraft, helicopters and all things aviation, it’s hard to think of a better way to arrive.
Private helicopter transfers – Your own aircraft, your own schedule
For those wanting a little more exclusivity, our private helicopter transfers offer a fantastic way to travel to and from Avalon.
Whether you’re attending the Trade Days with clients, entertaining business associates, or simply wanting to make a special day of it with family and friends, a private helicopter provides a more personal experience.
Our private flights accommodate up to five passengers, subject to aircraft availability, individual weights and luggage requirements.
There are no strangers sharing your flight, and you can enjoy the convenience of travelling together.
For private bookings, we also include complimentary road transfers from Melbourne CBD to our Essendon Airport executive lounge, making the experience even easier from start to finish.
It’s a great option for corporate entertaining, business networking or simply treating yourself to something a little different.
Shared helicopter transfers – Grab a seat and enjoy the ride
Not everyone needs a private helicopter, and that’s where our shared flights come in.
Our shared helicopter transfers offer individuals, couples and smaller groups the opportunity to experience the excitement of flying to the Avalon Airshow without having to book an entire aircraft.
Simply reserve your seats, meet us at Essendon Airport and enjoy the flight with other aviation enthusiasts heading to the same event.
Shared flights are subject to minimum passenger numbers for departure, so booking early is recommended.
It’s a fantastic way to experience helicopter travel, particularly if you’ve never flown in one before.
Trade Days or Public Days – We’ve got you covered
Whether you’re attending the industry-focused Trade Days or planning a family day out during the Public Days, we’re looking to make helicopter transfers available throughout the event.
Trade Days
For those working in aviation, aerospace, defence or related industries, time is valuable. A helicopter transfer is a convenient alternative to the road and a great way to arrive when you’re entertaining clients or meeting industry contacts.
Public Days
For families, aviation enthusiasts and anyone wanting to experience the Airshow without the associated traffic headaches, a helicopter transfer adds another dimension to an already exciting day.
And let’s be honest, arriving by helicopter is likely to be a talking point before you’ve even walked through the gates!
Make the journey part of the experience
At Leisure Heli Tours, we believe the experience shouldn’t start when you walk through the Airshow gates. It should start when you arrive at our Essendon Airport terminal.
Our aim is to make the journey as enjoyable as the destination, with a personal welcome, a comfortable departure experience and an unforgettable flight.
Whether you choose a private helicopter or a shared flight, you’ll get to see Melbourne and the surrounding landscape from a completely different perspective.
2027 is shaping up to be BIG – Don’t leave it too late!
If 2025 was anything to go by, the 2027 Avalon Australian International Airshow is going to be a huge event.
Helicopter availability is limited, and we anticipate strong interest across both Trade Days and Public Days.
So, rather than leaving it until the last minute, start planning now. If you’re travelling with colleagues, friends or family, it’s worth getting organised early to secure your preferred flight arrangements.
