CalvinAir Helicopters is proud to offer the highest calibre of service, safety and comfort to our guests. From our state-of-the-art aircraft, to our friendly, experienced staff, everything we do is driven by the vision of making our passengers’ aerial excursion one that they will never forget.

Based in Antigua, we offer fully-narrated aerial tours as well as custom charter experiences. Licensed as both an Air Operator as well as an Approved Maintenance Organisation, our operation maintains hangar facilities at V.C. Bird International Airport. With two additional heliports, one near the cruise ship pier in St. John’s and the other just outside of Jolly Harbour, we are conveniently situated and poised to deliver first-class service from every location.

Boasting safety, luxury and the latest technology, our Airbus EC130‘s spacious, climate-controlled cabin comfortably accommodates the pilot and up to 6 passengers. Its raised, forward-facing, theatre-style seating and absence of partitions to block the view, gives guests spectacular visibility from every seat.

Fly to the island of Montserrat for an up-close look at the infamous Soufrière Hills Volcano.

Experience this 45-minute, pilot-narrated, aerial adventure over the sparkling Caribbean waters to the island of Montserrat. Here, at the centre of the ‘Exclusion Zone’, an area where access is strictly managed, is the active and explosive Soufrière Hills Volcano. Rising to an impressive 3,000 feet and dominating the island, the volcano towers above the Tar River Gorge and Delta.

In 1997, a series of eruptions made two-thirds of the island uninhabitable. This tour allows you to experience the massive destruction as you fly over a collection of evacuated villages, the previous location of the WH Bramble Airport, and the charred remains of the former capital, Plymouth, which is now partially buried under forty feet of ash.

Witness the smoke and steam of a live volcano up close… all from the safety of a helicopter. A once-in-a-lifetime experience!

This 45-minute trip costs US$320.00 per person
