About

This tour includes everything from the Melbourne City Scenic and extends your flight with breathtaking aerial views of Port Phillip Bay.

Departing from Moorabbin Airport, we’ll fly straight towards the bay beaches of Sandringham and Brighton.

Your experienced pilot will fly a circuit of the Melbourne City, including the City skyline, the Melbourne Cricket Ground (largest stadium in the Southern Hemisphere), the Botanical Gardens, and Albert Park, Melbourne’s Formula One Grand Prix track, before returning you safely to the airport.

From Melbourne City, we’ll depart south-west flying over Point Cook airfield (the birthplace of the Royal Australian Air Force and the oldest continually operating military airfield in the world).

Flying over Avalon airport, and then past Geelong, we’ll transit over the Bellarine Peninsula to Port Phillip Heads, the narrow entrance to the bay.

We’ll also fly along the coastal towns of Portsea, Sorrento and Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsula before turning north and heading past Arthurs Seat and Mount Martha before descending back towards Moorabbin.

Throughout the flight, your pilot will point out each of the landmarks and share some commentary over the Bose noise-cancelling headset. You’ll have the opportunity to speak to the pilot and others on flight as well as capture this scenic experience on your phone.

Because we care for your safety and comfort, we only fly modern, premium aircraft at Avia. Each is equipped with the latest technology, a range of safety features, comfortable leather seating and air-conditioning.
