Arriving in São Paulo or Rio from the Gulf? Airport-to-business-district transfers and coastal or mountain flights, with every request reviewed by a person before licensed operators are approached. SkyMatch is an independent broker and concierge, not an operator. We structure the request; a licensed Brazilian operator confirms the helicopter, route, landing point, timing, availability and final price.

Why concierge, not a marketplace
Submit your mission once. We canvass operators globally and present a single curated proposal — no inbox overload.
Operators declare their AOC, insurance and safety documentation before joining the network. Licensing details are operator-declared; safety, crew and aircraft remain the operator's responsibility.
Quotes as quickly as possible, subject to availability. We handle paperwork, slots and changes end-to-end.

Latin America
A helicopter transfer in Brazil is a private charter of the whole aircraft, priced per mission rather than per seat. Guarulhos (GRU) → Faria Lima is one of the most requested sectors here, and typical sectors run roughly 6–60 minutes airborne, subject to routing, weather and operator confirmation. SkyMatch collects your leg once and returns operator-confirmed options as quickly as possible, subject to availability.
There is no published fare. The operator prices each mission on aircraft class, flight time in both directions, positioning from wherever the helicopter starts the day, landing and handling fees, and crew duty. Send the date, passenger and luggage count and the exact points, and we return operator figures for comparison.
Around 12 minutes airborne on a direct routing, before boarding, handling and any air-traffic sequencing. Final timing is confirmed by the operating company with your date and departure point.
Guarulhos (GRU) → Faria Lima, Congonhas (CGH) → Faria Lima, São Paulo → Angra dos Reis, São Paulo → Ilhabela are the corridors buyers request most often through this hub, and we source point-to-point missions across Brazil on request, including private helipads, resorts, yachts and airport connections.
Send one brief — date, time window, origin, destination, passengers and luggage. We canvass independent licensed operators, come back with a curated proposal, and handle permits, slots and changes end to end. Nothing is committed until you approve an operator quote.
No. SkyMatch Group is an independent helicopter sourcing and coordination platform. Every flight is performed by an independent licensed operator that holds the aircraft, crew and safety responsibility.
Rotations to camps, survey lines and offshore assets are routine work for the operators we canvass, subject to a site assessment covering approach, surface, obstacles and fuel planning. Share coordinates and site photographs with the request and the operator confirms feasibility before anything is scheduled.
Recurring rotations are usually quoted as a programme — aircraft positioned for the period, defined daily sectors and agreed standby — rather than as separate one-off flights. Send the rotation pattern, headcount and cargo weights and we bring back operator programme options.
The independent licensed operator holds the aircraft, crew, insurance and safety responsibility, including HSE documentation where your project requires it. SkyMatch Group coordinates the sourcing and paperwork and does not own or operate aircraft.
