Uber has just launched a new pre-booked helicopter route between Sorrento and Capri, and it’s turning heads. The service, priced at $290 per person, slashes the usual hour-long commute into a swift 15-minute ride. Operated by a twin-engine aircraft and two professional pilots, it’s as smooth as it is fast.

This isn’t just a flight it’s a door-to-door VIP experience. Travelers can book directly through the Uber app starting June 25, with service available on weekends from late July through late August. The helicopter takes off from designated heliports, eliminating the need for long car transfers or ferry waits.

Absolutely. For $1700, you can book a private charter for up to six people ideal for families or groups looking to elevate their summer adventures. It’s an all-in-one solution for getting around the Amalfi Coast in serious style.

Uber’s move into aerial transport signals a shift in how we experience travel not just where we go, but how we get there. It’s not about luxury for the sake of it, but about reclaiming time and turning the in-between moments into something memorable. Plus, flying over the turquoise waters of Italy? That’s a memory worth every dollar.

Possibly. Uber has been experimenting with air mobility for years, and this offering may be a sign of what's next. As more travelers seek faster, premium ways to explore, helicopter hops could become the new standard especially in high-demand destinations.

So if you're heading to Italy this summer and want to make your trip unforgettable before you even land in Capri, Uber might have just given you wings.
