Helicopter Charter vs Helicopter Rental
People search for “helicopter rental” and “helicopter hire”. Both mean chartering. When you charter a helicopter from L R Helicopters, you hire the whole aircraft with a Transport Canada-certified pilot. You do not fly it yourself and you do not buy individual seats. The price covers the aircraft, the pilot and the flight.
Who charters a helicopter
Clients book charters for oil and gas, utilities, forest management, mineral exploration, construction, film and photography, tourism, firefighting, search and rescue, and VIP transfers. A charter can carry passengers from point to point through our air taxi service, or it can carry equipment and crew to a site with no road through our aerial work operations.
What affects the price
Price depends on the aircraft, flight time and what the job needs. Capacity, comfort and operating cost differ by helicopter. The Robinson R44 carries one pilot and three passengers. Larger aircraft suit bigger groups and remote work. Passenger weights matter, so give accurate weights when you ask for a quote.
How to book a charter
- Send the booking form or call 403-286-4601 with your route, date, passenger count and any equipment.
- We reply within 24 hours with a quote.
