AirStMaarten Welcomes Third Helicopter to Expand St. Barths Charter Capacity

Philipsburg, St. Maarten – November 11, 2026 – AirStMaarten (AirSXM.com) is pleased to announce the addition of a third helicopter to its network of aircraft available for private charter flights between St. Maarten (SXM), Grand Case (SFG), St. Barths (SBH) and other Caribbean destinations.

The addition of a five-passenger Airbus H125 helicopter, operated by a new regional helicopter service provider, expands AirStMaarten’s charter options ahead of the busy 2026–2027 winter travel season.

The increased helicopter capacity is particularly welcome as demand for private transfers to St. Barths continues to grow. Helicopters also provide an attractive alternative amid the introduction of the new COHOR airport slot management system, as helicopter operations use designated helipads rather than conventional aircraft parking stands, subject to airport operating restrictions and slot requirements.

The Airbus H125 offers excellent performance and greater flexibility for regional island transfers, including longer routes such as St. Barths to Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe (PTP), with an estimated flight time of approximately 55 minutes.

With three helicopters now available through its charter network, AirStMaarten looks forward to offering clients more flight options, greater scheduling flexibility and expanded access to destinations throughout the northeastern Caribbean.
