Helicopter transfers between hotels in Mauritius
Moving between Mauritius hotels by helicopter can be arranged through Andeor’s flight partner, but it requires a tailored transfer, not a sightseeing booking. Both departure and arrival landing arrangements need approval. Before planning your hotel-change day around a flight, establish whether the landing points, luggage arrangements and any ground travel work with both hotels’ timings.
In this guide
Book a transfer rather than a sightseeing circuit
Andeor offers sightseeing flights through its partner, including private and shared Bel Ombre waterfall circuits lasting approximately 15 minutes. The approximately 35-minute shared airport waterfall circuit returns to the airport and excludes hotel and land transfers.
These are not hotel-to-hotel transport. A private circuit is still a circuit, not permission to choose another destination. For a hotel move, request a tailored transfer quote using your actual origin and destination rather than booking a sightseeing flight.
Have both landing points approved
Give Andeor the names of both hotels, your travel date, party size and baggage details. We coordinate the operating partner’s approval of both landing arrangements. Hotel access is not universal, so naming two resorts does not establish a usable route.
Have the quote distinguish the flight from any ground connections and clarify landing fees, proposed timing and baggage arrangements. Use that itinerary’s quoted price and timing rather than figures for sightseeing circuits. If the proposed landing arrangements cannot be approved, consider a road transfer instead.
Plan the move around both hotels
Give Andeor your first hotel’s check-out time and any essential arrival deadline at the second. Allow for reaching the approved departure point, passenger preparations and the onward journey after landing, not just time in the air.
If departure is after check-out, ask the first hotel about luggage storage or somewhere to wait. At the next hotel, confirm reception arrangements and room availability separately: landing does not mean your room will be ready. Avoid scheduling a tightly timed activity immediately after the move.
Agree how your luggage will travel
Provide accurate passenger and baggage weights through Andeor’s approved private channels. Suitcase numbers alone are not enough, and a hotel transfer does not come with an assumed baggage allowance.
Agree which bags can travel on the aircraft and how any separately transported luggage will reach the next hotel. Keep essential medication, documents and arrival necessities in a bag whose carriage has been agreed. Flag children, mobility needs or specialist equipment early so Andeor can coordinate case-specific suitability and equipment acceptance with the operating partner.
Confirm the booking and final meeting instructions
Andeor’s selling policy requires booking at least 36 hours before a scheduled departure. This is Andeor’s policy, not a universal operator rule or a promise that an inter-hotel route can be approved within 36 hours. Start earlier when landing or luggage arrangements need coordination.
Andeor staff coordinate operator arrangements, passenger details, tickets and day-before confirmation. Booking or payment alone does not establish that the operator’s e-ticket is ready. Follow the final meeting instructions for your confirmed trip.
Keep a ground alternative and check cancellation terms
Flights remain subject to weather and operational factors. We can arrange separate hotel and activity transfers, including a road option for your hotel-change day. Ground transport needs its own confirmed arrangements; it is not automatically included in the flight’s price or duration.
Before committing, read the booked offer’s current cancellation terms. Guest cancellation and operator cancellation are different situations, so avoid planning around an assumed free cancellation window or automatic refund. Consider how you would reach the next hotel if the flight changes.
Your questions, answered
Can a helicopter pick me up at any Mauritius hotel?
No. Both departure and arrival landing arrangements require the operating partner’s approval. We coordinate this using your actual hotel locations, travel date and passenger details before the itinerary is confirmed.
Will my luggage arrive at the next hotel with me?
Only baggage accepted for the flight can travel on board. If some bags go by road, agree their delivery arrangements and timing as part of the hotel move.
Can I use a waterfall sightseeing circuit as a hotel transfer?
No. The published circuits are return sightseeing flights, not hotel transfers. Ask us for a tailored transfer rather than booking a circuit as one-way transport.
