How arrivals work at Goodwood
Yes. Helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft land at Goodwood Aerodrome by prior permission and booked slots, and the landing fee includes handling and transport to the event. The Revival and Members' Meeting take helicopters only.
Goodwood runs its own aerodrome next to the estate, so you land a short transfer from the hill climb.
Slots are paid in full when booked, and cancellations up to 48 hours before arrival are refunded. Overflying the festival site is not allowed, and air displays can restrict slots.
Goodwood's official helicopter partner is Elite Helicopters, which also runs a shuttle of about 15 minutes from Eashing Farm, off the A3 at Milford, from £455 plus VAT return.

Where London helicopter trips start
Most London event flights leave from the London Heliport at Battersea, or from a business airport such as Farnborough, Biggin Hill or Oxford if you are flying in by jet first. Twin-engine helicopters such as the Leonardo AW109 are the usual choice for race days, because they seat five or six and fly the London routes that single-engine types cannot.
Helicopter charter in the UK runs at about £1,200 to £3,500 per flight hour for the whole aircraft, before positioning and landing fees. Event days carry waiting time and landing slots, so ask for an all-in price.
