ExecuJet Africa launches heli charter from Cape Town

The African arm of Zurich, Switzerland-headquartered ExecuJet has taken delivery of its first charter helicopter, a VIP configured Bell 407, at its Cape Town FBO facility. The primary focus of the Bell charter business will be for scenic flights to surrounding vineyards and other tourist attractions, but ExecuJet will also make it available to existing clients for their business and leisure requirements.

Gavin Kiggen, director of flight operations, ExecuJet Africa, says: “There is always a great demand for helicopters in the Cape Town region during the high season, so we are really pleased to be able to offer this service to our customers. We are always looking for new opportunities to expand our charter offering in the region, and this is an exciting step forward for the team.”
