You may have heard of Aerologistics Helicopters at Mayfield West, but did you know they have another heli-base right in the heart of Newcastle?

Heliservices, in association with Aerologistics Helicopters, is Newcastle's oldest and leading helicopter company and the only helicopter operation based out of Newcastle at the Newcastle Harbourside Hel-port.

Heliservices Newcastle provides cost effective access to the region operating from its three local bases - Newcastle CBD, Hunter Valley Wine Country (Cessnock) and Mayfield West.

"Being in the heart of the city on the coast, customers are immediately immersed in the spectacular scenery of the area as soon as we take off," base manager and pilot Tom Menzies said.

Customers can choose from a range of adrenaline-charged flight options over Newcastle (Newcastle City Sights), along the coast (Coastal Rush), and up to the Hunter Valley Wine Country (Hunter Valley Wine & Dine).

"With 12 helicopters of various sizes to suit different groups - from corporate clients, to kids and families - we can cater for any occasion," Tom said.

Feel the wind rush by you as you race down the coast at 500 feet on your "doors off" helicopter ride, experiencing the coastline in a fun and unforgettable way. View Nobby's Head, the ANZAC Memorial Walk, Bar Beach, the Merewether Baths, and more from the seat of an Aerologistics helicopter with the clearest view possible, tuning in to commentary from your fully qualified pilot.

Or if romance is on the menu, indulge your loved one with a flight up to the vineyards.

Land at one of the Hunter Valley's most prestigious restaurant, overlooking one of Australia's most romantic backdrops, and be treated to an a-la-carte lunch with wine to savour. Then enjoy the flight back to Newcastle.

"Your safety is our priority and your pleasure and satisfaction our focus during the exhilarating scenic flights we provide," Tom said. "Our team of highly skilled pilots are committed to providing you the best helicopter ride of your life."

HeliServices Newcastle has vouchers for all occasions including birthdays, weddings and proposals - which are always a big hit.

"If you're a photography enthusiast you can also charter the helicopter for your own Instagram-worthy shots. If you are lucky you might see a whale or dolphin."

Aerologistics Helicopters is located at 8 Cowper Street S, Carrington, just over the bridge next to the Maritime Police base.

"We have a great 24/7 online booking system, or call to speak with our friendly staff," Tom said.
