About The Helicopter Company

The Helicopter Company is Saudi Arabia's national helicopter operator, owned by the Public Investment Fund and headquartered in Riyadh. In a few years it has grown to a fleet of 62 aircraft, more than 16 bases and more than 900 staff, flying more than 40,000 hours in 2025.

Its largest service is helicopter emergency medical services, flown with the Saudi Red Crescent Authority to carry patients to hospital across the Kingdom's long distances. It also flies aerial work such as filming, banner towing and survey, private charters, and sightseeing tours that can now be booked online. Its partners include the giga-projects of Red Sea Global, NEOM, AlUla and Trojena, where helicopters link remote resorts and sites. The fleet is built around the Leonardo AW139, with 11 more on order.

For visitors to AlUla, the Red Sea coast and other remote destinations, The Helicopter Company offers private charter and tours under Saudi civil aviation oversight.
