We Fly Niagara Falls!
Rainbow Air is proud to have served the Niagara Region since 1995, and we’re excited to offer an awe-inspiring and multi-faceted year-round attraction for anyone visiting Niagara Falls!
Take the most breathtaking tour Niagara Falls and Western New York have to offer on our new Airbus H130 helicopters. These state-of-the-art aircraft offer quiet, climate-controlled comfort for seven passengers per flight, with amazing views from the oversized windows! We will offer tours every day of the year (excluding Christmas and Thanksgiving Day), weather permitting.
Rainbow Air offers longer duration flights by special request. Rainbow Air offers Commercial Helicopter Charter service from our location on Acheson Drive.
Rainbow Air’s team of professional pilots operate in the Restricted Airspace that surrounds the mighty American Falls and Horseshoe (Canadian) Falls. Our Operations team includes highly respected veterans in the aviation community, as well as skilled, detail-oriented mechanics and maintenance professionals who meticulously maintain our aircraft daily.
Our pilots are highly skilled and have extensive experience in many military and civilian operations. The safety of our passengers and crew is paramount in our business, and our pilots are all certified on the latest FAA-certified training.
For those seeking a different experience, Rainbow Air offers the immersive Niagara Virtual VR simulation at the Tourism Center. This adventure uses advanced self-steer technology to put guests in the driver’s seat as they virtually fly above and around the Falls. “Niagara Virtual” combines motion-based engineering with immersive 360-degree film and VR content to deliver a sophisticated flying experience. It’s a different experience every time!
Niagara Virtual features 11 simulator units offering a unique VR experience of parasailing over the Falls! A brief virtual helicopter ride leads up to the person “jumping out” at 3,500 ft. Guests then take the reins and soar through a remarkable virtual environment around the Falls. The video game built into the ride offers targets to fly through, giving people the chance to compete for bragging rights with others in their party. It’s a stunning visual journey into places around the Falls that’s unlike anything else.
