Get Heli and Alpes Hélicoptères start ski season heli service
Getting to the Alps is about to get a lot easier and a lot more fun thanks to a flight pooling helicopter service born from a cross-channel partnership between GetHeli and Alpe Hélicoptères.

UK-based rotary charter booking platform GetHeli and France-based helicopter operator Alpes Helicopteres, now part of Léman Aviation, are jointly introducing a flight pooling system that should redefine air travel to the Alps, especially during the ski season, and starting with Courchevel.

Innovative Approach to Helicopter Travel:

Flight pooling, the cornerstone of this partnership, allows passengers to book individual seats on helicopters, merging multiple travel requests.

This British-French partnership is underpinned by mutual exclusivity agreements. GetHeli grants Alpes Helicopteres exclusive rights to use its flight pooling technology in the French and Swiss regions, while the operator commits to channel all its flight pooling bookings through the GetHeli platform, ensuring a unified and efficient service across these regions.

Timed perfectly for the upcoming ski season, this service offers an enjoyable and economical mode of transportation for ski enthusiasts and tourists alike, enhancing the accessibility of Alpine destinations.
