Noticing a particular helicopter-shaped void in the Chicago market, Trevor Heffernan decided to buy his own rotorcraft and eventually founded his very own company in 2011, called Chicago Helicopter Experience. Though it started out as a tour offering, running flights out of Chicago Executive Airport, CHE has recently launched a brand new Premier chapter for charters.

Promising the “ultimate hassle-free charter experience,” CHE Premier is available 24/7 and includes Airbus models EC130 and EC135, with the latter able to fit up to five passengers. Offering plenty of room for luggage and Bose noise-cancelling headphones there to protect your ears, the flights allow you to check out the Chicago skylines in comfort. And since you float along at around 60 mph, the ride is smooth and relaxing. All charter flights also come with a committed staff, on-board catering and heli-side ground transportation. 

"We believe our CHE Premier Charter service is a game-changer for busy executives, VIPs and families on the move," says CHE Founder and CEO, Trevor Heffernan. "The ability to get in and out of Chicago quickly in comfort and style, with round-the-clock accessibility is our commitment to our guests."

Premier is available for flights in the Midwest at daily and hourly rates. Prices available upon inquiry.
