Indicative routes
Sample missions we coordinate
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.
Straight answer
How does a helicopter transfer in Costa Smeralda, Sardinia work, and what does it cost?
Helicopter transfers in Costa Smeralda, Sardinia are flown as private charter and priced per mission for the whole aircraft, not per seat. Typical sectors here take roughly 10–90 minutes in the air — for example Olbia (OLB) to Porto Cervo in about 10 minutes. SkyMatch is a concierge, not an operator: you send one brief and we source, screen and negotiate with independent licensed operators, then return a single curated proposal, subject to aircraft and crew availability.
Where the aircraft starts the day
Positioning is usually the largest line on a short sector. If the nearest suitable helicopter is not already at your departure point, the empty flying time in both directions is inside the quote.
Aircraft class and passenger load
A light single covers three to four passengers with cabin bags. Five or six passengers with real luggage move you to a light or medium twin, which changes the hourly rate more than the flight time does.
Landing site and permissions
An airport or licensed heliport arrival is the baseline. A villa pad, hotel lawn, marina or yacht deck each need owner permission, a site check and — for deck landings — deck-qualified crew, all confirmed per mission rather than assumed.
Season, slots and time of day
Peak weekends in Costa Smeralda, Sardinia tighten availability and airport slots, and weather windows can push a mission to a morning departure. Booking earlier widens the operator pool and the price range we can negotiate.
Ground handling and waiting time
Handling fees, landing fees, crew waiting on a same-day return and any overnight for the aircraft are quoted transparently by the performing operator inside the single proposal you receive.
Why concierge, not a marketplace
You stay hands-off. We find, negotiate and coordinate.
One brief, one proposal
Submit your mission once. We canvass operators globally and present a single curated proposal — no inbox overload.
Independent operator network
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.
Concierge promise
Quotes as quickly as possible, subject to availability. We handle paperwork, slots and changes end-to-end.
