In Kakadu, most scenic flights are operated in Gippsland Airvans. Purchased new from the Gippsland factory, these Australian built aircraft were designed for outback utility work and a credible alternative to the aging Cessna range of similar-sized aircraft. They are regarded as simply the best light aircraft available worldwide from which to conduct aerial surveillance and scenic flights. The fourteen seat turbine-powered Cessna Caravan aircraft can sometimes be used for scenic flights.

Jabiru scenic flights depart from the Jabiru Airport, which is located near the end of the Arnhem Highway, about 5km beyond the turn off into the township of Jabiru. It is clearly signed. Check-in and information are available inside the Terminal.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

A minibus transfer service is available between Jabiru accommodations and the Jabiru Airstrip &ndash; the cost is $10.&nbsp;

Best seen from the air, enjoy aerial views over the&nbsp;World Heritage Listed Kakadu National Park&nbsp;with a guaranteed window seat&nbsp;on either a 30-min or 60-min&nbsp;scenic plane flight departing from the Jabiru&nbsp;Aerodrome.&nbsp;

<h4>30 Min Scenic Flight</h4>

There is so much to see on this&nbsp;affordable, fun flight, from ancient escarpments to winding rivers and spectacular 1.8 billion years of continuous erosion.&nbsp;The highlights of this journey include The Archway, Arnhem Land escarpments, East Alligator Valley, Mikinj Valley Billabongs and Magela flood plains.

This flight includes recorded and live commentary from your pilot as you fly through&nbsp;these spectacular ancient&nbsp;lands.

<h4>60 Min Scenic Flight</h4>

Kakadu enjoys two major climatic&nbsp;seasons &ndash;&nbsp;Wet&nbsp;and Dry. Therefore, the 60 min&nbsp;flight takes two different routes&nbsp;depending on the time of year you fly.&nbsp;

<h4>Wet Season &ndash; December to May</h4>

The wet season is when the Top End really comes alive as the fresh rains fill the waterways and spread out across the land.&nbsp;Departing&nbsp;Jabiru track south from the airport over the township where the famous&nbsp;Crocodile Hotel can be seen in full glory from above!

Witness remarkable ecosystems as you fly over savannah woodlands, tidal flats, and majestic&nbsp;wetlands until ultimately revealing the dramatic towering sandstone escarpment.&nbsp;The plateau&#39;s edge has stood sentry over Kakadu&#39;s lowlands for over 140 million years.

Fly across the spectacular Mt&nbsp;Brockman as you head along the ancient&nbsp;coastline for a bird&#39;s eye view of the Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) rock art site.&nbsp;Once lapped&nbsp;by ancient seas, the edge of the escarpment is rushing past, and deep narrow gorges and prehistoric sea cliffs surround you.&nbsp;

Look ahead as you spot a smoke-like&nbsp;mist; in its full wet-season magnificence, the prominent Jim Jim and Twin Falls&nbsp;come into view. The water thunders over the escarpment and surges into Jim&nbsp;Jim Creek below. After looping around the falls on both the left and right sides&nbsp;of the aircraft, you take a last glimpse of the thundering falls.&nbsp;

Cross&nbsp;through the twisting landscape of&nbsp;Deaf Adder Gorge&nbsp;and witness the many&nbsp;secluded waterfalls scattered amid monsoonal forests before taking in the&nbsp;unique two-tier cascade of&nbsp;Double Falls.&nbsp;Traverse the ancient foreshore as you&nbsp;fly over&nbsp;before exposing the cliff face of&nbsp;Namarrkondjahdjam (Lightning&nbsp;Dreaming).&nbsp;&nbsp;

Finally, head over tea-tree scrub and mangrove-fringed mudflats as the&nbsp;Jabiru township&nbsp;comes back&nbsp;into view. Pass over the&nbsp;now-closed&nbsp;Ranger Uranium Mine&nbsp;towards the town as you return to the airport&nbsp;with fascinating tales and a life-long memory.

<h4>Dry Season &ndash; June to November</h4>

<h4>&nbsp;</h4>

Pass&nbsp;the&nbsp;Ranger Uranium Mine across to&nbsp;Dinosaur Valley, fly through Upper East Alligator Valley, view deep fault lines, and see the outliers created from erosion.

Then, follow the twists and turns of&nbsp;the stunning East Alligator River &ndash; don&#39;t be surprised to see saltwater crocodiles soaking up the sun on the banks!

Turning home, you&#39;ll fly over the mosaic Magela floodplains,&nbsp;with one last view of&nbsp;Jabiru Town to see the famous Crocodile Hotel. This is the perfect way to see Kakadu National Park in the dry season.&nbsp;

If you want to make this experience even more unique, you can take this same route at sunset on the&nbsp;Jabiru Sunset Spectacular &ndash; 60 Minute Scenic Flight. Watch the colours change magnificently over the landscape as the sun sinks below the horizon.&nbsp;

DEPARTURE INFORMATION:

This website refers to scenic flights and tours from Jabiru, Cooinda, and Darwin.

Jabiru scenic flights depart from the Jabiru Airport, this is located near the end of the Arnhem Highway, about 5klm beyond the turn off into the township of Jabiru. It is clearly signed. Check in and information is available inside the Terminal. A mini bus transfer service is available between Jabiru accommodations and the Jabiru Airstrip. Cost is $10.&nbsp;

Cooinda flights, depart from the Cooinda Airstrip. Information, bookings and check in is available at the Cooinda reception. Departure to the airstrip is also from the Cooinda reception area, where a Kakadu Air representative will meet passengers and transfer to the Airport by minibus. Private vehicle access to the airport, which is on private property is dissuaded.

Darwin air tours, Depart from the departure lounge at 2 Slade Court, Eaton NT 0820 (Darwin Airport) Darwin Airport transfers are not included. The drive time to the Darwin CBD is approx. 15 minutes. Pre-booking a taxi is recommended. &nbsp;Car parking is not provided. &nbsp;There is a public car park on Pedersen Road, 250 meters away.

Check In: All flights require a check in 30 minutes prior to the advertised departure time. A late departure is likely to affect passengers on following flights. Our Goal is to remain on time, if your arrival is likely to be delayed please inform us urgently, we will offer you alternative options.

Aircraft: In Kakadu, most scenic flights are operated in Gippsland Airvans. Purchased new from the Gippsland factory, these Australian built aircraft were designed for outback utility work and a credible alternative to the aging Cessna range of similar sized aircraft, at this time they are regarded as simply the best light aircraft available worldwide from which to conduct aerial surveillance and scenic flights. At times our fourteen seat turbine powered Cessna Caravan aircraft can be used for scenic flights.

Aircraft from Darwin (tour) The Darwin / Kakadu Tour requires a high aircraft speed to be able to complete a satisfactory itinerary in our planned time. To achieve this and when confirming low numbers we will fly in twin engine Cessna aircraft, these have a low wing, however with practiced technique the pilot will lower the wing for views of various attractions.

JIM JIM AND TWIN FALLS:

Kakadu Air respects the &ldquo;Kakadu National Park managements&rdquo; voluntary code of conduct. Known as the &ldquo;The fly neighbourly policy&rdquo; which limits flights to a certain minimum height above terrain, and distance lateral from about 30 locations in Kakadu, in order to improve the experience of those on the ground at those locations. Jim Jim Falls and Twin falls are two of those locations. These falls are fantastic viewing and are able to be seen freely in the WET Season, when the road is closed and there is nobody on the ground, however in Dry Season, the road is open there are people on the ground, and there are NO SIGNIFICANT WATER FLOWS, nor significant views. Kakadu Air has been flying Kakadu since 1981, we know the area. In the dry season we have an opportunity to explore country that is much more varied and spectacular than dry waterfalls

CHARTER:

The Company and or the pilot in command has absolute discretion as to the operation of the aircraft, its final or interim destination, or whether it operates at all, such interruptions to service will generally be made in the interest of the continued safety of the aircraft its passengers or its crew and will not be questioned.

The passenger must not carry in person or within passenger&rsquo;s baggage or other goods, any alcoholic liquor, matches. explosives, weapons, volatile or corrosive liquids or any goods that are regarded in aviation as dangerous goods. Such goods will not be carried, and at the company&rsquo;s sole discretion may be returned, confiscated, and or destroyed.

The Company and the pilot in command may refuse the carriage of a passenger, if that passenger could be regarded as likely to cause annoyance or offence to, or threaten the safety of the flight or any person on that flight.

In refusing service to any person or persons for reason of drunkenness, annoyance, offence, or threat to flight passengers or crew, the company refuses liability for any inconvenience or cost related to our refusal for the passenger or freight to travel.

The Company regularly charters into Arnhem Land, all passengers are responsible for obtaining all permits and travel documents that might be required at the point of landing. The Company does not assume to be aware of all the restrictions that might be applicable at the point of destination, nor that might be applied to the individual that is traveling to that destination.
