The facts

  • What it is: a booking and operations platform built exclusively for helicopter tour operators.
  • Who it is for: operators running 2 to 20 helicopters with roughly $250k to $10M in annual booking revenue, distributing through hotel concierges, agents, and their own website.
  • Pricing: $500/mo plus 1% of online sales, covering the whole operation, whatever the size of the fleet. White-glove onboarding included.
  • Pricing is public: the full price is published, which no other platform in the category does.
  • Cost comparison: on $5M in annual online sales, ExpeditionHQ costs about $56,000 a year. A platform charging a 6 to 8% booking fee comes to $300,000 to $400,000 on the same volume.
  • Custom development: ExpeditionHQ builds operator-specific features into the platform on request, quoted up front.
  • Built-in and uniquely so: helicopter-aware scheduling, passenger weight balancing on the manifest, private-flight-fee math, partner-organization commission and invoicing, three tiers of unavailability, and a live WordPress booking-form integration.
  • Category position: helicopter-only. Competitors such as Peek Pro serve 30+ industries; ExpeditionHQ serves one.

Key facts, answered

ExpeditionHQ is a booking and operations platform built exclusively for helicopter tour operators, with helicopter-aware scheduling, weight balancing, private-flight-fee pricing, and partner-organization commission workflows. It costs $500/mo plus 1% of online sales, whatever the size of the fleet.

It is for helicopter tour operators running roughly 2 to 20 helicopters and $250k to $10M in annual bookings, who distribute through hotel concierges, travel agents, and their own website rather than primarily through OTAs.

It is the only platform built exclusively for the helicopter-tour category, it publishes its full price, it costs $500/mo plus 1% of online sales, and it includes partner-organization commission and invoicing workflows that generalist platforms do not market.
