During the annual Hampi Utsav, helicopter rides branded “Hampi by Sky” offer short aerial flights (7–8 minutes) over the ruins at Kamalapura helipad.
On non-festival days, BLADE by‑seat services operate from Bengaluru to Hampi, flying you into Hosapete within 80 minutes and bypassing the 350 km road route . Private charters via StarAir are also available for direct access to helipads near Hampi. The experience offers panoramic views of the Tungabhadra River, temple clusters, boulder formations, and historic architecture.
