Why Whirlwind helicopters

Private helicopters are agile aircraft. Their vertical takeoffs and landings allow greater accessibility. Unlike larger aircraft, helicopters provide access to both crowded and remote locations. They land and take off where other aircraft cannot. Our helicopters will accommodate 6-8 passengers with an average cruising speed of 150-177 mph and a non-stop range of 450-591 miles, making them ideal for quick flights from Washington, DC  to New York City or Baltimore to Boston.

​

Private helicopters are designed to be fast and comfortable. Whirlwind's helicopter charters feature low noise levels, luxurious interiors, baggage storage, and in-flight refreshment centers. Private helicopters are the most flexible and versatile aircraft for short distance flights.
