Discovering new adventures is a new way of life. Countless vacation seekers and holiday makers around the world are choosing to spend their time differently. Times have changed though with traditional modes of travel becoming less reliable due to global factors beyond the control of commercial airlines.

This is where one of the most underrated travel solutions has been stepping in to revolutionise the game. The Bell 505 isn’t just an alternative mode of travel for the highest flyers in business; its multi-faceted design stands as the complete 360 solution allowing adventure seekers to navigate freely around border limitations, lengthy stop-over journeys, delayed or cancelled flights and skyrocketing airline ticket prices. It can even negate the need to step into crowded airport lounges, adding a crucial layer of personal safety for those pursuing an intimate luxury experience like no other.

With the Bell 505 having already conquered fields in tourism, flight training, law enforcement and personal business, it now takes on its most demanding role in the prestige lifestyle and adventure space, a discerning market showcasing some of the highest standards in personal flight.

Today is your chance to take a deeper look at how smart travellers are leveraging the flexibility of the Bell 505 to write their own adventures of a lifetime.

Discovering new worlds with the Bell 505

Seasoned adventure seekers have a very specific set of requisites when it comes to leisure travelling. Time efficiency, practicality, accessibility, reliability and safety all play a crucial role in delivering an adventure of a lifetime for clients. The Bell 505 excels in all of these areas with its intelligent design and engineering input derived from aircraft production experience dating back to 1935.

In the adventure realm, exclusivity is integrated into the Bell 505 equation by allowing passengers the freedom to choose where they want to go at any given time. South Africa is one of the regions where the Bell 505 has stretched its rotors by allowing adventurous locals to explore their own backyard in comfort and style.

For media personalities like Rego and Dise, the Bell 505 changed their perception of flying entirely by introducing them to the untapped thrills and freedoms that only a helicopter can achieve. Their special moment began with a Bell 505 flight as part of a thrilling weekend safari. By the end of it, the influential duo became something they never thought they’d be: tourists in their own home country.

Above the equator, the Bell 505 once again showcases how its speed and versatility can perfectly serve purveyors of the luxury lifestyle space. During this adventure, the Bell 505 departed from the Atlantis in Dubai, bypassing traffic and the lull of driving with a short and efficient 45 minute flight to the 7-star hotel of Emirates Palace. Once on the ground, passengers made their way to an extravagant lunch by the pristine waters of the hotel. This effortless segway from the Bell 505 continued to an awaiting Lamborghini which guests drove out to explore the desert. With dusk settling in, guests made a return drive back to Dubai where the adventure concluded in style with an evening of cocktails and breathtaking city views.

The underlying advantage of embarking on an adventure with the Bell 505? Having the entire world to explore on your own with the company you choose.
