Near Europe - quicker than in a Private Jet

Many near European locations are much quicker and easier to reach by helicopter than even by private jet.

For example, should you wish to visit central Paris from central London, by helicopter it is possible to leave a London Heliport and arrive in Paris Issy Heliport in 1 hour 10 minutes.

To do this journey by train will take a minimum of 2 hours 35 minutes, and by private jet maybe even 3 hours. This is because the jet has to travel from airport to airport (45 minutes), and it takes time for it to taxi out to the runway for take off and back in after landing (10 to 15 minutes). But first you have to get to and from your chosen airport by car or train, and you have to arrive around 20 minutes before departure: therefore it is often smarter to go by Starspeed helicopter charter all the way. Please see 'Our Helicopter Fleet' or contact us for more passenger/range examples, and to find the right helicopter for your journey.
