Gyrocopter flight from Skydive Dubai, Palm drop zone
Check in at the Palm drop zone on Al Seyahi Street, present ID and take the pre-flight briefing with your pilot. You then lift off in an open gyrocopter and climb to around 1,500 feet, low enough that the city keeps its detail. The route runs over Dubai Marina, Ain Dubai on Bluewaters, the fronds of Palm Jumeirah with Atlantis at the head, the World Islands offshore and the Burj Al Arab. About twenty minutes in the air.
