Bali Corporate Incentive Aerial Activities
For a group of 8 to 40 people, a Bali corporate incentive aerial programme runs on seat counts, not one ticket type. Helicopters carry 4-6 guests per flight, the seaplane 8, the balloon 2, paragliding one tandem per pilot, parasailing one tow per boat. The JHG desk sequences rotations, confirming every capacity number with the operator in writing first.
Why Does Group Size Decide the Aerial Programme?
A 20-person incentive group cannot walk up to one counter and fly together. Each activity operates from a separate venue with its own capacity, season and hours. Helicopters depart from private heliports — Benoa Heliport, Nusa Dua Selatan, and the Melasti Beach road in Ungasan — never from Ngurah Rai airport. Paragliding launches from the Bukit cliffs at Timbis and Uluwatu; parasailing runs only from the Tanjung Benoa lagoon; the seaplane is charter-only, not a scheduled service. Fitting a group into this geography means planning flights in batches with transfer time between stops.
How Many Flights Does a 20-Person Group Need?
The table below sequences a 20-person group through each activity, using seat counts and published prices on file as of September 2026. Every price is the operator’s own published rate or an OTA “from” price, subject to change; the desk reconfirms it at the time of enquiry.
| Activity | Seats per rotation | Rotations for 20 guests | Time per rotation | Published price basis (source, month) | Briefing requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Helicopter, Bell 206L-4 | Up to 6 | 4 | Flight time plus turnaround | Price on request — SGi Air Bali, Benoa Heliport (Sep 2026) | Photo ID and pre-flight safety briefing per passenger |
| Helicopter, R66 / Bell 505 | Up to 4 | 5 | 10 minutes from IDR 1,990,000 per seat | Balicopter, Nusa Dua Selatan (Sep 2026) | Mandatory briefing before boarding; last flight 17:00 |
| Seaplane, Cessna Caravan 208 EX Amphibian | Up to 8 | 3 | 24-40 minutes depending on route | Santai Seaplane; South Bali-Gili from USD 2,500 one-way plus USD 500 airport fee and USD 250 tax (Sep 2026) | Charter-only under partner AOC; availability confirmed per date, not guaranteed |
| Tethered balloon | 2 | 10 | 7-10 minutes per ride | IDR 2,200,000++ for two — Tanah Gajah, Ubud (Sep 2026) | Grounded above 5 knots or in rain; minimum 2 reservations |
| Tandem paragliding | 1 per pilot | Paced by pilots on duty that day | 15 minutes | USD 110 per person — Timbis Paragliding Bali (Sep 2026) | Weight capped at 110 kg per Bali Paragliding Tours; site depends on season |
| Parasailing, tandem tow | 2 | 10 | About 5-6 minutes per tow | Rp 275,000 per person online — Tanjung Benoa (Sep 2026) | Book morning slots — the lagoon recedes after noon |
Paragliding rotations depend on how many pilots the operator rosters that day; the desk confirms this number in writing before setting arrival time.
Which Programme Templates Work for a Half-Day or Full-Day Incentive?
Three templates cover most incentive groups, built around the venues above:
- Tanjung Benoa water-and-air morning (half-day): Parasailing tows scheduled before noon, while the lagoon still holds enough water for the boats to run. Best paired with other water activities at the same beach club.
- Bukit afternoon paragliding with Uluwatu sunset: Tandem flights within the operators’ 12:00-17:00 window; Uluwatu flies roughly November to March per operator notes, Timbis April to October.
- Nusa Dua helicopter seat rotation with a Melasti lunch: Guests rotate through 4- to 6-seat helicopters from Nusa Dua Selatan or Benoa Heliport, with a lunch stop near Melasti Beach between rotations.
Every template runs on one rule: the operator confirms capacity in writing before the date locks, and the pilot or site duty officer has final say to pause flying for wind, rain or any safety call.
What Safety and Compliance Steps Apply to Every Rotation?
- Waivers. Every participant on every activity signs the operator’s own waiver before boarding or launching — no aerial activity in this programme skips this step.
- Insurance. Coverage is published per operator, not blanket across the programme. RIUG’s paragliding cover runs up to IDR 250 million; Tanjung Benoa parasailing operators include participant insurance in their published rate. Confirm the figure per operator booked.
- Identification. Helicopter passengers carry government-issued photo ID for boarding at any heliport.
- Weight and age limits. These vary by operator — paragliding tops out around 110 kg, parasailing 100-150 kg, balloon rides cap two adults at 150 kg combined. The desk checks each guest against the specific operator’s published limit.
How Does Booking a Group Aerial Programme Work?
- Send the brief. Headcount, dates, budget band and hotel come to the desk via WhatsApp or email.
- Desk checks capacity. JHG confirms seat counts, season fit and hours for each activity, and gets written capacity confirmation from each operator.
- Rotation plan returned. The client receives a flight-by-flight plan with time slots and published price basis per activity, the same structure as the table above.
- Desk fee confirmed. The coordination fee is quoted on request as a fixed figure, never a percentage of spend, confirmed before any operator payment.
- Operators confirm in writing. Final bookings lock 24-72 hours ahead (seaplane and Traveloka helicopter slots both need advance confirmation); check-in and briefing happen on site.

Ready to Request a Group Aerial Programme?
Send headcount, dates, budget band and hotel to the JHG desk — WhatsApp 6281139414563 or bd@juaraholding.com. JHG is an independent coordination desk, established 2015, that arranges services with licensed operators; it does not own aircraft or boats, hold an AOC, or employ pilots. Desk fees are quoted on request as a fixed figure, never a percentage, and every price above is date-stamped and subject to change.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we book a Bali corporate incentive aerial programme?
Lead time varies by activity: seaplane charters are confirmed per date and never guaranteed until the operator locks it in; helicopter slots booked through Traveloka need 72 hours’ notice with a 45-minute check-in; the tethered balloon needs a minimum of two reservations to run at all. For a 20-person group mixing three or more activities, the desk recommends starting the request at least two weeks ahead.
Can one company book helicopter, paragliding and parasailing on the same incentive day?
Yes, but the venues sit apart — Nusa Dua or Benoa Heliport for helicopters, the Bukit cliffs at Timbis or Uluwatu for paragliding, Tanjung Benoa for parasailing — so the day is built as a sequence with transfer time between stops, not three activities running back to back at one location.
What happens if wind or rain cancels part of the rotation?
The pilot or site duty officer has final call on every activity. The tethered balloon will not fly above 5 knots of wind or in rain; helicopter and paragliding operators apply their own weather standards on the day. JHG does not guarantee flying conditions or outcomes and reschedules affected rotations where the operator allows it.
Does the Juara Holding Group desk operate the aircraft or boats itself?
No. JHG is an independent broker and coordination desk, established 2015, with no air operator’s certificate, no pilots on staff and no exclusive operator agreements as of September 2026. It arranges each activity with the licensed operator that holds the relevant certification and publishes its own capacity, price and safety terms.
How is insurance handled across a multi-activity group booking?
Insurance is published per operator, not as one blanket policy from the desk. RIUG’s paragliding cover runs up to IDR 250 million per its own published terms; Tanjung Benoa parasailing operators include participant insurance in their listed price. The desk confirms the exact figure for each operator booked before the programme is finalised.
