Trusted by travelers worldwide

A technology platform that connects you with independent operators

Operator-declared licensing

Licensing details, including Air Operator Certificate and national CAA / EASA permits, are operator-declared. Safety, crew and aircraft remain the operator's responsibility.

Operator-declared insurance

Hull and third-party liability cover is declared by each operator. SkyMatch does not underwrite, guarantee or insure any flight.

No upfront fees to travelers

Travelers never pay SkyMatch. You contract and pay the operator of your choice directly — the contract for carriage is between you and the operator.

Multilingual concierge desk

A real human concierge helps you compare offers. Flight decisions, availability and performance are made by the operator.

You send route, dates, passengers and luggage. No account, and nothing is committed at this stage.

2 · Sourcing

Licensed independent operators whose fleet and base fit the mission are asked for availability and pricing; the documentation they supply is reviewed.

3 · Operator confirms

You compare the options and contract directly with the operator you choose. Price and availability are only fixed once the operator confirms.

Light, medium and heavy helicopters plus light/midsize/heavy jets depending on route.

Operators declare their AOC, insurance and safety documentation before joining the network. Licensing details are operator-declared; safety, crew and aircraft remain the operating company's responsibility.

Yes. Beyond passenger transfers we brief operators for aerial work missions — power lines, dams, pipelines and remote infrastructure sites — including LiDAR and photogrammetry survey, powerline and pipeline patrol, thermal inspection and crew rotation to sites with no road access. These are quoted as mission blocks (aircraft type, sensor or door-off configuration, on-site loiter time), not as a simple A-to-B transfer, so tell us the asset, the altitude profile and how many hours on task you expect.

In most cases yes, and it is a routine request. We flag mobility needs to operators before quoting so you only receive aircraft that can genuinely accommodate them: step-free or low-sill boarding, wide cabin doors, removable seats, ground crew assistance to the aircraft door, and helipads with paved, level access rather than grass or elevated decks. Folding wheelchairs travel in the baggage hold; power chairs need battery details in advance. Tell us the passenger's transfer ability (walk a few steps, assisted lift, or full hoist) and we match the aircraft to it.

Yes. Manual routing is one of the most common reasons clients use SkyMatch around United Kingdom: multi-leg days, custom waypoints, scenic or photography orbits, sequenced site visits with the aircraft waiting on the ground, or a departure point that is not an airport. We send the operator your waypoint list and ground times, they confirm feasibility against fuel, daylight, airspace and noise restrictions, and the quote reflects the actual routing rather than a straight-line estimate.

Often yes. Off-airport landings — private property, hotel grounds, vineyards, event fields, yacht decks, industrial sites — are possible where the operator can obtain landowner permission and the site meets safety criteria (approach clear of obstacles and wires, firm surface, adequate size, no local noise or curfew restriction). Give us coordinates or a pin and the operator will assess the site; where it isn't approvable we propose the closest legal alternative with a short ground transfer.

Yes. Medical and time-critical requests are routed to operators with the right configuration — stretcher fit, medical crew seating, oxygen, hospital helipad access or airport-side ambulance handover — and to organ or blood transport where relevant. Tell us the clinical status, whether medical escort is provided by you or must be arranged, and the receiving facility; we prioritise availability and readiness over price on these missions.

Same-day is often achievable when an aircraft is already positioned nearby, and next-day is comfortable for most requests. Weather and daylight windows can compress the schedule, so early notice buys you options rather than a single take-it-or-leave-it aircraft.

Capacity depends on the airframe and on payload once passengers and fuel are counted. Tell us the number of bags, ski or golf equipment, camera or survey gear (including door-off mounts) and any animals travelling; we pass real weights to the operator so the aircraft is sized correctly rather than discovering a limit at the helipad. Assistance dogs and small pets in carriers are usually accepted with prior notice.

Quotes come from the operator, not from us. Each proposal states the aircraft type and year, crew, flight time, any positioning or repositioning legs, ground waiting, landing and handling fees, and applicable taxes — so you can compare like with like. SkyMatch is independent: we do not own aircraft and are not tied to a single operator, so the shortlist reflects availability and suitability for your mission.

Can SkyMatch arrange a helicopter transfer in the UK?

SkyMatch can source a helicopter charter in the United Kingdom when the client needs an event-day arrival — Royal Ascot, Cheltenham, the Grand National, Goodwood, Silverstone — an airport connection from Heathrow, Farnborough or Luton into central London, or an estate transfer in the Cotswolds or the Scottish Highlands. Event pad slots are finite and allocated in advance, so lead time matters more than distance. SkyMatch structures the request and asks UK licensed operators for availability; the operator confirms aircraft, price, pad slot and landing permission.

Best for

  • Racing and sporting event arrivals with allocated pad slots
  • London Heliport and airport connections on tight schedules
  • Country-estate, shooting and fishing transfers with landowner permission
  • Corporate day trips with the aircraft waiting on site

Not ideal for

  • Sightseeing flights over London
  • Late event-day requests once course pad slots are gone
  • Field landings with no landowner permission

Information a United Kingdom request must contain

  1. 1.Date, departure time and — for a return — the intended return time
  2. 2.Exact pickup and landing points, including whether either end is an airport, licensed helipad, hotel, villa, marina or yacht
  3. 3.Passenger split into adults, children and infants, with approximate weights for larger parties
  4. 4.Luggage: bag count, approximate total weight and any oversized items
  5. 5.Whether the whole party must arrive together, or whether shuttle rotations are acceptable
  6. 6.Date and timing flexibility, and how urgently you need an answer
  7. 7.Whether the destination is a licensed heliport, an event pad or private land
  8. 8.Whether the aircraft must wait for a return leg the same day

SkyMatch is a helicopter charter broker and matching platform. It does not operate aircraft. Every flight is operated by a licensed operating company, and aircraft, price, landing approval and the weather decision are confirmed by that operator — never guaranteed by SkyMatch.
