Are doors off helicopter trips cold? The following question was answered by Leslie.
Question:
I was told by a friend that she went on a ‘doors off’ helicopter ride on Kauai last July and that it was amazing. She suggested we do it too. One question though:
We are coming in February and wondering if it might actually be cold flying at that height during that time of year. I have a tendency to get cold easily and I just wonder if I might be uncomfortable?
Answer:
Yes, it does get chilly when you are up that high with no doors on the helicopter. This is true year round. Make sure you dress warmly, long pants, closed toed shoes and socks, and a jacket or heavy sweatshirt. You should be fine if you dress appropriately.
