Hawaii Helicopter Tour Accident Statistics
When researching Hawaii helicopter tours, safety is of the utmost importance. You don’t want to ruin your Hawaii vacation (and more importantly lose your life) because you chose a helicopter company that didn’t put safety first.
Aloha Hawaii does not guarantee the safety of any helicopter tour, but when we take a Hawaii helicopter ride, we definitely take into strong consideration a companies past tour operating history.
The following Hawaii helicopter crash statistics are provided by NSTB (National Transportation Safety Board). Companies WITH and WITHOUT crashes are represented. Companies no longer doing tours are not included.
Note: These accident statistics are for helicopter tours only. Commercial work is much riskier and these types of accidents are not included.
*No NTSB Record but reported in Maui News on 11/17/2009 with passenger’s Letter to Editor on 12/03/2009 describing engine failure and autorotation into a cane field.
