Common questions
What is a private helicopter charter?
You hire the whole helicopter, with its pilots, for your own route, date and time, instead of buying a seat on a scheduled flight. A permit-holding operator flies it, and the price is quoted for that trip.
How much does a private helicopter charter cost in India?
There is no fixed fare. The quote depends on the flying time, the aircraft, how far the helicopter has to be positioned from its base, waiting time, landing permissions and taxes. Prices are on request, and each written quote lists what it includes.
How many people can fly on a charter?
Most single-engine helicopters seat five or six, so the cost is shared across the group. Twin-engine helicopters suit longer sectors and VIP movement. The operator also checks the weight of passengers and baggage for the route.
Where can a chartered helicopter land?
At an airport, an established helipad, or a site the operator has checked and cleared for that flight with the permissions it needs. Landing permissions are part of the quote.
