Gran Canaria helicopter charter

Yes — a private helicopter can be chartered from Gran Canaria when a licensed Spanish operator has a suitable aircraft available for your date. As planning figures, Fuerteventura is roughly 30 minutes airborne, Tenerife around 35 and Lanzarote around 45, against ferry crossings or scheduled flights plus road legs at both ends. Gran Canaria is the practical eastern base, with the airport, handling and fuel concentrated at LPA. SkyMatch Group is a helicopter charter broker; we do not own or operate aircraft, and the flight is performed by the licensed operator under its own certificate.

Who it's for
Guests arriving at Las Palmas / Gran Canaria (LPA) by scheduled flight or private jet, resort and villa clients in the south of the island, yacht and marina parties, corporate travellers and travel designers.
How it works

Who operates the flight
An independent third-party operator. SkyMatch coordinates and does not operate aircraft; operational responsibility remains with the operator.

Private helicopter charter from Gran Canaria (LPA): Fuerteventura in about 30 minutes, Tenerife about 35, Lanzarote about 45. Resort, villa, marina and private jet connections, pricing drivers and a live operator availability check.

Planning times: Fuerteventura about 30 min, Tenerife about 35, Lanzarote about 45, southern resorts on the island typically 10–20 min from LPA.
Surface comparison: the Gran Canaria–Fuerteventura ferry is a multi-hour crossing plus two road legs; the helicopter usually returns most of a day on a same-day return.
Meloneras, Maspalomas and the southern resort strip are short sectors from LPA, but direct arrival depends on an approved landing area and operator authorisation.
Pricing is per aircraft and per mission. Aircraft category, sector time, positioning, crew, landing and handling fees, waiting time and season are the drivers.
Positioning is often the largest single line, because the rotary fleet based in the archipelago is small and may need to be flown to your departure point.
Yacht and marina movements are usually planned to an approved area port-side; deck landings require a certified helideck plus operator and captain approval.
Private jet arrivals at LPA connect well to a helicopter continuation, planned with deliberate slack against the jet's estimated arrival and with baggage volume reviewed in advance.
Atlantic trade winds affect routing and timing across the eastern islands. The crew assesses on the day; no departure time can be guaranteed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, subject to a licensed Spanish operator having a suitable aircraft available for your date, acceptable conditions and an approved landing point at both ends. Send the sector and date and we will approach operators.

About 30 minutes airborne as a planning figure, against a multi-hour ferry crossing plus road legs at both ends. Real timing depends on aircraft type, wind and the exact landing point.

Tenerife is around 35 minutes and Lanzarote around 45 as planning figures, subject to routing, aircraft type and conditions on the day.

There is no published tariff. Price depends on route distance, helicopter type, positioning, passenger and baggage load, landing requirements, crew and operator availability. We return live operator pricing.

Light types such as the H125 and H130 handle most short sectors with roughly four to six passengers; intermediate twins carry larger parties or more baggage. The operator confirms type and limits for the date.

Yes, where an approved landing area exists and the operator is authorised to use it, with the property owner's permission where required. Otherwise we plan the nearest approved point and a short ground leg.

Normally to an approved area port-side. Landing on the vessel needs a certified helideck and approval from both the operator and the captain.

Door to door, usually yes on these sectors, particularly when the endpoint is a resort or marina. Scheduled inter-island flights are much cheaper; the helicopter is bought for timing, privacy and the last mile.

Send departure, destination, date and time, passengers, baggage and any special requirement — that is all we need to start.

No. The request comes to SkyMatch first, we review it, then identify and coordinate with suitable licensed operators. The flight is operated under the operator's own certificate.
