Planning your flight
Planning your flight involves arriving on schedule with official government identification and meeting standard aircraft weight requirements. Every tour begins and ends at Moll Adossat Heliport at the Port of Barcelona.
Heliport location and check-in
Flights depart from Moll Adossat Heliport, Port Vell, located at Moll Adossat, S/N, Sants-Montjuic, 08039 Barcelona. You must arrive at the terminal 30 minutes before your confirmed departure time. There is no metro station at Moll Adossat, so visitors arrive via taxi or private vehicle. The terminal offers indoor seating, free Wi-Fi, a vending machine, and a viewing terrace over the helipad.
Mandatory ID and passenger weight limits
Every passenger must present a valid passport or national ID card at the heliport counter; boarding passes cannot be issued without physical identification. Check-in includes a mandatory weigh-in for balance calculations. Each individual seat is rated to 110 kg. A passenger over 110 kg may need to book and pay for a second seat, and 130 kg is the maximum ceiling depending on aircraft limits.
Terminal hours and weather rules
The terminal is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 18:00, and Sunday and holidays from 10:00 to 15:00. The pilot in command makes all final operating decisions. If weather, safety, technical, or airspace restrictions stop a flight from operating, guests are offered an alternative date or time, or a refund if rescheduling does not suit their travel itinerary.
Cancellation and change policies
Any change or cancellation request must be submitted at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled flight. Requests submitted later than 48 hours before departure may not be accepted. Arriving late to the terminal or missing your flight window entirely is non-refundable.
Which flight fits
Selecting the right route depends on your travel budget, your group size, and the specific Barcelona landmarks you want to see from the air.
| Flight Option | Route Type | Best For | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coast Tour | Shared | Budget travelers and first-time flyers | 3 to 5 passengers |

Choosing the Coast Tour
The shared Coast Tour is best for visitors seeking a fast introduction to Barcelona from the sea. Flying in a Robinson R44 or Airbus AS355, this 6 to 7 minute flight tracks Barceloneta beach, Port Vell, the W Hotel, the World Trade Center, the Columbus Monument, Torre Glories, San Sebastian, San Miguel, Somorrostro beaches, and the Besos river mouth before returning to the heliport.
Choosing the Sky Tour
The shared Sky Tour is designed for travelers who want views of the architectural heart of Barcelona. Operated in an Airbus AS355, the route covers the coastline, Torre Glories, La Sagrada Familia, Avinguda Diagonal, Camp Nou, Placa Espanya, Montjuic, and the 1992 Olympic Ring. It includes an onboard audio guide in English, but requires at least 4 passengers to depart.
Choosing private coastal or Montserrat routes
Private tours suit travelers seeking dedicated cabin space. The Coast & Besos private flight (389 EUR) follows Barceloneta, Port of Barcelona, the World Trade Center, Columbus Monument, Torre Glories, El Forum, and the Besos river. For mountain landscapes, the Coast & Montserrat flight (1,499 EUR) tracks the port, Maremagnum, Torre Glories, the beaches, and the Besos river, continuing via Sant Cugat and Rubi to the Montserrat monastery. The Sky & Montserrat flight (2,450 EUR) combines Sagrada Familia, Camp Nou, Montjuic, and Montserrat in a 40-minute route. Note that every flight returns to Moll Adossat Heliport; no tour lands at Montserrat.
