Your sea journey starts with a clear arrival plan. SkyMatch reviews helicopter connections to your yacht or marina; SkyMatch confirms the aircraft, route and each landing. Boat and yacht hire are separately arranged.
Send your route, date, passenger count and luggage details. A SkyMatch concierge will check suitable third-party operator options and follow up as quickly as possible.
Indicative routes
Missions are priced per aircraft, not per seat. Every quote comes from the operating company and varies with aircraft class, season, slots and availability. We negotiate on your behalf.
Send route, date and passengers. A SkyMatch concierge checks which licensed operators can cover it and comes back to you. No obligation; any applicable fees and the total charter price are disclosed before confirmation.
Route decision
Start with where you will embark. A helicopter-to-marina connection and a direct yacht-deck landing are different missions; neither includes the boat journey.

The Mediterranean
A helicopter transfer in Greece, Mediterranean, UAE & worldwide is a private charter of the whole aircraft, priced per mission rather than per seat. Greece, Mediterranean, UAE & worldwide is one of the most requested sectors here, 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.
Flight time depends on the exact departure and landing points and the routing the operator files. We confirm the airborne time with the operator when we return options for your date.
Greece, Mediterranean, UAE & worldwide are the corridors buyers request most often through this hub, and we source point-to-point missions across Greece, Mediterranean, UAE & worldwide 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 coordinate changes with you; the licensed operator arranges permits and slots. 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.
SkyMatch Group is an independent helicopter sourcing and coordination platform: we do not own or operate aircraft, and every flight is performed by an independent licensed operator.
Yacht & marina transfer
Yacht transfers are a coordination problem before they are a flying problem: deck or shoreside landing, tender window, captain's approval and guest timing all have to line up. SkyMatch works from the yacht's position and the captain's requirements and asks operators who actually fly that coastline.
Send the yacht name, position or marina and guest timing. SkyMatch coordinates with the operator on landing and tender options.
Any figure shown on this page is indicative planning guidance only. The final quote depends on aircraft type, routing, landing permissions, timing, weather and operator availability, and is confirmed by the operator flying the mission.
Availability is never assumed. SkyMatch asks suitable licensed operators what is genuinely open for your date and time, and tells you plainly when a request is not realistic rather than holding you on a maybe.
SkyMatch does not operate aircraft. Deck landings only proceed where the vessel is certified for it and the operator and captain both approve; otherwise a shoreside plan is proposed rather than promised.
