Fly from Queenstown to Aoraki Mount Cook for a full five-run heli-ski day in the Southern Alps. The weather-dependent package costs NZD 2,695 per person for winter 2026 and takes approximately nine hours, returning guests to Queenstown around 16:30–17:00. A scenic fixed-wing flight of about 40 minutes connects Queenstown with Mount Cook Airport, followed by the standard guided Mount Cook heli-ski program. Strong-intermediate and better skiers and snowboarders can access terrain across six mountain ranges, with the day tailored to snow, safety and group ability.
