Helicopter Langkawi International to Langkawi and Andaman island resorts

Yes, subject to operator availability, permits and approved landing locations. The Langkawi International (LGK) to Langkawi and Andaman island resorts movement is flown as a private charter of the whole aircraft by an independent licensed operator, arranged through SkyMatch. Typical block time is around 12 minutes plus handling at each end. Malaysian rotary movements need CAAM-compliant approvals and designated sites; parts of the Langkawi geopark are protected and beach landings are not permitted. Several resorts maintain pads used where a current approval exists; where none does, the plan is an approved site plus a car or boat leg. Over-water sectors carry the operator's survival-equipment requirements.

Around 12 minutes in the air on a normal day, against 30–70 minutes by road to the far-side resorts, or a boat transfer that depends on sea state. Those are typical ranges rather than a guarantee: the exact block time depends on the aircraft, the routing and the conditions on the day. Where the ground or sea alternative is genuinely the better answer for your schedule, we will say so.

It is quoted per mission for the whole aircraft, not per seat, and there is no published rate. The number is driven by aircraft category, where the helicopter has to position from, landing and handling fees at each end, crew waiting time if you hold the aircraft, and how busy the date is. The operating company sets the final figure. Send the date, passenger count and bags and you get operator pricing for that exact movement.

Several resorts maintain pads used where a current approval exists; where none does, the plan is an approved site plus a car or boat leg. Over-water sectors carry the operator's survival-equipment requirements. You are given the confirmed landing point with the quote, together with the ground or boat leg to your address, so the door-to-door plan is known before you commit. Nothing on this page should be read as a claim that a specific resort, marina or private pad is available on your date.

Twin-engine over-water types — AW139, H145 class — for island and yacht sectors; type is set by the party size and the pad. Cabin capacity and baggage allowance depend on the exact type, the crew configuration, temperature and the sector length. Normal travel luggage is usually fine; golf bags, dive gear, ski equipment and oversized cases must be declared up front so the operator can confirm the aircraft still works for your party.

November to April is the driest window. In the monsoon months squalls and low cloud interrupt sectors, so build a road or boat fallback into any fixed check-in. As a rule, the earlier the brief arrives the better the aircraft, the permissions and the price — and on this corridor permits and positioning, rather than the flight itself, are usually what set the lead time.

Date and preferred departure time, the exact pick-up and drop-off points, passenger count, luggage, and whether you need the aircraft to wait for a return. If your landing point is a resort, villa, marina or yacht, tell us the name so the operator can check whether it holds a current approval for that date.

No. SkyMatch Group is a broker and matching platform, not an aircraft operator. We route your brief to independent licensed operators covering Malaysia, compare what comes back and coordinate the confirmed movement. The operating company holds the AOC, the insurance and the landing permissions, and is responsible for the flight.
