The duration on a helicopter booking covers the whole visit: arriving, the safety briefing, waiting your turn and boarding, as well as the flight. The airborne portion is usually a good deal shorter than the block you reserve, and it differs by route. Ask what the actual minutes are before comparing one option against another.
Dubai resolves differently in the air. The Palm only reads as a palm shape from height, the creek reveals how the old city sits against the new, and the tallest building in the world stops looking tall and starts looking impossibly thin.
Wind and visibility are the variables. Flights are grounded rather than flown when either is against them, and summer haze can flatten the view on days that are perfectly safe to fly.
No transfer is included, and the helipad is not centrally located. Work out how you are reaching it before the day.

No. You make your own way there, and the helipad is not centrally located, so plan the journey in advance.
Flights are grounded rather than flown. Wind and visibility decide it on the day, and the call is made by the operator.
Late afternoon into sunset. Around midday the haze flattens the view even on days that are entirely clear enough to fly.
