Preferred helicopters for helicopter island transfer
Airbus H130
Single-engine7 pax · 130 kts · 330 nm
The H130 wraps the H125 powertrain in a wider, quieter cabin with panoramic windows — the dominant aircraft for premium scenic tours and short luxury transfers across the Mediterranean and Gulf.
Airbus H145
Light twin8 pax · 135 kts · 360 nm
The H145 is the European workhorse for VIP twin-engine charter: IFR-equipped, quiet fenestron tail rotor, and a near-stand-up cabin. The default choice for hop-flights into city helipads and offshore platforms.
Leonardo AW109 GrandNew
Light twin7 pax · 154 kts · 460 nm
The AW109 GrandNew is the fastest light twin on the market — retractable gear, 460 nm range, and the cabin polish Italian operators are famous for. The benchmark for VIP island-hopping across the Mediterranean.
Where we book helicopter island transfer most
Frequently asked
Are there helipads on every Greek island?
All major Cycladic islands (Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Naxos, Spetses, Hydra) have authorised helipads. Villas can request a temporary landing site with 48–72h notice and operator coordination.
Can I bring my dog on an island transfer?
Yes — most operators welcome pets in the cabin. A pet carrier or restraint is required for take-off and landing.
What if the weather closes in?
Operators carry weather minima. If a flight is grounded, you receive a full refund or rebooking on the next available slot — never a fee or partial charge.
