Common questions

How much time can a helicopter save?

On routes with heavy traffic, ferries or mountain roads, a helicopter can potentially save an hour or more each way. The calculator shows an indicative figure for your route; the operator confirms the real flight time.

Is the helicopter time guaranteed?

No. Flight time depends on weather, aircraft, routing and air-traffic or landing permissions. All times are estimates.

What does the flight cost?

Prices are on request. They depend on the route, aircraft and operator, and are confirmed before booking.
