What counts as a 12 seater helicopter
The Airbus AS365 Dauphin is the helicopter you will most often be offered in France for 12 passengers. Helicopters like these cost about €1,340 to €4,010 per flight hour to charter.
Operators count passenger seats, with the pilot extra. In everyday use a "12 seater" often includes the pilot, so this page lists helicopters that carry 12 passengers.
One model on France's DGAC list of air carriers seats 12 passengers; it makes up 2 aircraft.
Seats are not the only limit. On hot days and at high elevations operators may fly fewer people than the seats fitted, because the helicopter can lift less. Expect to give passenger and bag weights when you book.
Charter is priced for the whole aircraft by the flight hour: about €1,340 to €4,010 for a helicopter in France. Tell us the route and we confirm an aircraft and price from licensed operators in France.
