What Copenhagen Helicopter does

Copenhagen Helicopter ApS is a Danish private limited company operating helicopter sightseeing tours, on-demand charter, and premium experience packages out of Copenhagen Airport, Roskilde (Lufthavnsvej 34, 4000 Roskilde). The company serves international tourists, cruise passengers, business travelers, and corporate/govt clients with a portfolio that includes 12-28-45-60 minute sightseeing flights, all-inclusive packages bundling helicopter with certified driver-guide taxi and lounge hospitality, Fly&Dine experiences to Michelin-tier restaurants (Dragsholm Castle, Falsled Kro, Henne Kirkeby Kro), exclusive tailored tours, special projects (aerial photography, weddings, film), and gift cards. All aviation operations are conducted under partner Copenhagen AirTaxi's Danish Air Operator Certificate (#DK.AOC.021), audited by the Danish Civil Aviation Authority, with the underlying fleet spanning Robinson R44, Airbus H135 (VIP), Airbus H120 (Uni-Fly), Pilatus PC12, and King Air accessed through partner operators (Copenhagen AirTaxi, KN Helicopters, Uni-Fly).

The business runs on a one-time-transaction revenue model with pricing in Danish Kroner, ranging from approximately DKK 960-1,295 per person for standard sightseeing seats to DKK 9,780-11,380 for all-inclusive packages, plus bespoke on-demand charter quotes. Distribution is hybrid: self-serve online booking via the Rezdy platform for standard tours and Fly&Dine, and direct sales (phone, SMS, WhatsApp, email, contact form) for custom charters, corporate events, and special projects. The company has 1-10 employees and is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment or parent company.

The company is differentiated by a regulatory-grade safety posture (AOC audit, accident-free record, partner with 60+ years of aviation heritage), an integrated hospitality layer (Copenhagen Helicopter Lounge, certified driver-guide taxi partnerships), and a pioneering Green Aviation Initiative focused on electric and quiet-technology aircraft. The market is structurally limited to Denmark and nearby regions, with revenue subject to tourism seasonality, weather-driven cancellations (mitigated by full-refund policy), and inbound visitor flow to Copenhagen.
