Update (5 Sep 2026): the golf and winery day by helicopter described below is not on sale at the moment. The current Mt Fuji helicopter flights show what can be booked today; the planning advice in this article still applies.
The Mt Fuji golf and winery day is a helicopter-based day package for 4 passengers, arranged on request through the helicopter hub, with the price quoted when you enquire. It is the product in OlaChill's range built for a group that wants a full day out near the mountain rather than a flight alone: a round of golf, a winery visit and the helicopter doing the transport.
It is aimed at small corporate groups, retreats and foursomes celebrating something. If you are hosting clients or colleagues around the Asian Games Aichi-Nagoya 2026, which run from 19 September to 4 October, this is the kind of day that turns the trip's final chapter into the part people talk about. It departs from the Tokyo side, not Nagoya, so budget about 1h40 on the Shinkansen to get there.
What follows is a straight description of who it suits, how the day is structured, what autumn weather does to the plan and how to book it sensibly.
Who books this day
- A foursome of golfers. Four seats, four players, one tee time. It is the cleanest fit.
- A host with three guests. The host flies with the guests and the day is the hospitality.
- A small leadership retreat. Four people who need a day away from screens with a natural stopping point at the end.
- A celebration group. A milestone birthday or anniversary among four friends.
If your party is five or more, you need a second cabin or a different plan; if you are two, ask for a quote first, then consider whether a scenic flight plus a golf booking arranged separately gives better value.
What is included, and what to confirm
The package bundles the helicopter element with the golf and winery visits. The precise contents, the golf course, the winery, timings, meals, equipment hire and whether ground transfers between stops are included are all set out on the product page. Read it carefully before paying, and confirm anything that matters to your group, such as club rental, handicap requirements or dietary needs at lunch.
Two things you should not assume: that you can add a fifth person, and that the day can be shortened at a discount. The quote covers the 4-seat cabin and the package as described.
How the day is shaped
Because the details sit on the product page, think about the day in blocks rather than minute by minute.
| Block | What happens | What you control |
|---|---|---|
| Morning meeting | Arrive by the meeting time; the flight begins about 30 min later | Being on time, ID, light luggage |
| Flight to Fuji region | Aerial approach to the mountain area | Nothing; enjoy it |
| Golf | The round, as described in the package | Pace, equipment needs declared in advance |
| Winery | Tasting or visit as described | Who is driving afterwards: nobody, the helicopter is |
| Return flight | Back towards Tokyo | Keeping to the schedule |
The last point is a real advantage. On a car-based winery day someone has to stay sober to drive. On a helicopter day the pilot is the driver, and none of your four has to sit out the tasting.
Autumn conditions
Late September to early October is warm and humid, with temperatures of 20 to 30 °C. For golf that means light clothing, sun protection and plenty of water; the humidity can be draining even when the thermometer looks moderate. Typhoon season is not over, so rain and wind can arrive with a few days' notice.
The helicopter operator decides on safety grounds whether to fly. A weather cancellation gives you a full refund or a free change of date. The golf and winery elements are part of the package, so ask at booking how the whole day is handled if the flight is cancelled: whether everything moves together to a new date or whether any element can proceed by ground.
Placing it in the Games calendar
For a group attending the closing ceremony on 4 October, a realistic plan is Shinkansen to Tokyo on 5 October, the golf and winery day on 6 October, a spare day on 7 October in case of weather, and departure on 8 October. If the group is attending the Para Games from 18 to 24 October instead, the same shape applies before or after those dates.
Decide the date early. Voluntary date changes are free up to 4 days before the flight, so for a 6 October day you have until 2 October to move it without cost. A day package with a tee time is less flexible than a short sightseeing flight, so treat the 4-day point as your real deadline.
Weight, seats and preparation
Each seat is limited to 120 kg and the 4-seat cabin has a combined limit; check the exact figure on the product page. Golf bags and cabin space are a separate question, so confirm what can travel in the helicopter and what is provided at the course. Enter accurate passenger weights at booking; the operator plans the flight from them, and a refusal caused by inaccurate declarations is not a weather cancellation.
Bring the ID used at booking, a charged phone in case the operator needs to reach you about conditions, and clothing that works both on a fairway and in a winery.

FAQ
Can we bring our own golf clubs in the helicopter?
Cabin space is limited and the package terms cover equipment. Confirm on the product page and with OlaChill before booking whether clubs travel with you or are hired at the course.
Is this suitable for non-golfers?
The day is built around golf and a winery. A non-golfer in the four would need to be happy waiting during the round; ask at booking whether alternatives exist at the course. If two of four do not play, a scenic flight plus a separately arranged winery visit may suit better.
What happens to the tee time if the weather cancels the flight?
The flight cancellation is refunded in full or moved to a new date. Ask at booking how the golf and winery elements are handled in that case so there are no surprises on the day.
Can we do this from Nagoya during the Games?
No. The package operates on the Tokyo and Fuji side. Nagoya to Tokyo is about 1h40 by Shinkansen, so plan it as a day before the opening ceremony or after the closing.
Is alcohol at the winery a problem for flying?
The pilot flies; passengers may take part in the tasting as described in the package. Follow any instructions the operator gives at the briefing about the return flight.
