An FAA Part 135 certificate is the approval a company needs to fly on-demand charter for hire in the United States. Before issuing it, the FAA reviews the company's manuals, pilots, training, maintenance programme and every aircraft it adds, and its inspectors keep auditing the operation. An aircraft flown privately under Part 91 cannot legally be sold to you as a charter. Altivo Jets books flights only with licensed operators and names the operator on every quote. How we check operators.
About Zion Helicopters
Zion Helicopters is an FAA certified Part 135 helicopter tour company flying from the Rivers Edge Heliport in Virgin, Utah, just outside Zion National Park. It flies Airbus AS350 B2 helicopters, known in their current version as the H125, with climate controlled cabins and forward facing panoramic seating.
Its helicopter tours range from a 15 mile Zion panoramic flight to a 100 mile Zion 360 tour around the Canaan Cliffs. Other options include a 35 mile panoramic flight, a 55 mile Canaan Cliffs tour, a Canaan Cliffs tour with a landing on a butte, and a tour to Bryce Canyon with its orange hoodoos. Tours trace the park's edges and the dramatic cliffs and mesas around it.
The company also runs ground adventures, including an off road Jeep photo tour to the West Temple, an exclusive access Jeep tour combined with a helicopter flight, Virgin River tubing, a zipline and eBike tours. It offers private charters and group services.
The company is linked to sister helicopter tour sites for Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas. For visitors to Springdale and Zion, it is one of the main ways to see the canyon country from the air.
