If you're running scenic helicopter tours — winery flights, pub crawls, coastal joyflights — you're probably managing bookings on a WordPress form and charter quotes on Excel. FareBuild unifies both. Your scenic routes get a public booking page with instant pricing. Your custom charter quotes auto-generate from a natural language request in 3 seconds.
The problems you're solving with Excel
✗Scenic bookings and charter quotes on separate systems
Your pub crawl has a 'Book Now' button that leads to a form. Your AS350 charter to a remote site is quoted on Excel. Two workflows, two pricing models, one headache.
✗Every quote is a phone call and a spreadsheet
A customer asks for 4 pax to a winery. You look up the AS350 hourly rate, estimate block hours, add landing fees, add margin, type it into an email. 15 minutes per quote, every time.
✗No online booking for scenic routes
Customers want to book online. They don't want to call during business hours. Your competitors are using TripAdvisor and Viator — you're losing direct bookings.

Frequently asked questions
Can I keep my existing website?+
Yes. The scenic booking widget is embeddable — you add a small snippet to your WordPress site and it renders as an iframe with your branding.
Do I need to enter all my aircraft specs manually?+
No. Common helicopter types (AS350, EC130, R44, Bell 206) have pre-loaded performance specs. You enter your registration, hourly rate, and home base. Fuel burn, MTOW, and cruise speed are already there.
How does pricing work for per-seat scenic flights vs whole-aircraft charter?+
Scenic routes can be priced per-seat or per-aircraft. Charter quotes are always whole-aircraft. Both use the same fleet database and the same operator account.
