Helicopter Charter

Skip the traffic. Private helicopters connect airports, city heliports, resorts and events in minutes, and pair seamlessly with your private jet.

When a helicopter is the right choice

  • Airport transfers. From Manhattan to JFK or Teterboro, or from Los Angeles to Palm Springs, in minutes rather than hours.
  • Jet to helicopter connections. Step off your jet and onto a waiting helicopter for the final leg to a resort, island or estate.
  • Events. Golf tournaments, races, festivals and weddings, avoiding gridlock on the way in and out.
  • Short regional hops of up to about 150 miles, where driving is slow and a jet is unnecessary.

Aircraft

We arrange twin-engine helicopters flown by professional crews under FAA Part 135, including the Sikorsky S-76 and Bell 429. Twin engines and two-pilot crews are available on request for corporate travel policies.

How to book

Request a quote and choose "Helicopters" as your preferred aircraft, or call 1-800-647-0677. Tell us the pickup and drop-off locations, time, passengers and baggage. We will confirm landing permissions, ground transport and weather contingencies.

Helicopter flights are more weather sensitive than jets, so we always plan a ground backup for time-critical trips.
