Elevate your Summer Travel Blog Series: Episode 2: What to Consider When Choosing a Helicopter Charter
June 20, 2023In episode 1 of our blog series, we highlighted the trend toward increased private aviation as congestion from commuting and airports persists. If you are traveling for business or pleasure this summer within a 250-mile radius of NYC and Miami or landing at either of these destinations in a jet, a private helicopter could save you a lot of headaches and time.
If you are ready to take your transportation to the next level, it’s crucial to choose the right helicopter operator. At HeliFlite, we provide more than just a luxurious and efficient means of transportation; we offer an unparalleled experience that embodies safety, comfort, and reliability. Below are some of the major considerations when evaluating which helicopter service you will trust to fulfill your plans safely, on time, and on your schedule.
Experience Complete Control and Reliability: Flying directly with the Operator
In today’s competitive market, many helicopter charter providers outsource their operations to third parties, acting merely as marketers or brokers. This approach often leads to inconsistencies in service quality, safety standards, and overall customer satisfaction. When you book with HeliFlite, you can rest assured that we manage every aspect of your charter from start to finish. As a full-service operator, we handle everything in-house – from scheduling your flight with our FAA-licensed dispatchers and full-time HeliFlite crewmembers to the maintenance of your aircraft – and every detail in between. This comprehensive approach allows us to maintain strict control over the safety, quality, and reliability of our services, ensuring a seamless and luxurious experience for our valued clients.

Our top priority is your peace of mind, and we understand that it encompasses far more than just reaching your destination. It means entrusting your travel plans to seasoned experts dedicated to providing the safest and most comfortable experience possible.

Before booking your next helicopter charter, be sure to review this pre-flight checklist and see how your operator stacks up.
- • Are you flying on company-owned aircraft vs. the uncertainty of a brokered, third-party aircraft?
- • Is your flight booked on your schedule vs. a limited preset schedule?
- • Are the pilots full-time employees vs. contracted pilots with another carrier?
- • Is the fleet of helicopters maintained by trained and experienced technicians?
- • Does your operator give you and your family peace of mind backed by a strong safety record?
- • Are the aircraft the safest in the industry with twin engines and dual pilots?
- • Is your helicopter a completely private charter vs. a seat-sharing ride?
- • Does the operator have a track record of servicing the industry?
- • Is your helicopter operator adequately insured?
