Material transport
The helicopter’s strength lies in its mobility and its ability to reach the most remote locations, where no other form of traditional transport can be used. Helicopters do not require the construction of access roads and help to preserve the natural environment as much as possible.
But helicopters are not just a good choice in the mountains. In cities, they are often the most efficient solution for reasons of space, working methods and time, but also for cost reasons.
With over 60 years’ experience of flying in the mountains, all our crews are highly experienced in flying in challenging conditions and carrying out high-precision operations. Our specialist, highly qualified crews will do everything in their power to ensure your satisfaction. The bases in Sion, Collombey, Gampel, Lauterbrunnen and Saanen are all able to offer this service.
Air-Glaciers is here to work with you to find the most efficient and cost-effective solution for transporting your equipment to your chosen destination.

Regional programmes
Are you interested in a cost-effective solution?
During summer, Air-Glaciers is offering this special deal, allowing you to transport your equipment quickly and at a lower cost.
Customer requests are grouped together and sorted by region, and flights are scheduled on specific days. As the helicopter does not return to base after every flight, the costs are therefore competitive.
Bookings for transport as part of the regional programme must be made by 1.00 pm the day before. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further information. We look forward to your call.
