France's most celebrated wine country, reached in approximately one hour and fifty minutes. No motorway, no airport, no compromise.
A private helicopter to the Champagne Region covers the distance in approximately one hour and fifty minutes: arriving directly into one of the most celebrated wine landscapes in Europe, without airports, transfers or published timetables.
Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa — Champillon
The Champagne Region is unlike any other French destination accessible from the Netherlands. Between Reims: with its Gothic cathedral and legendary champagne houses: and the vineyard villages of the Marne Valley, the region offers a level of cultural and gastronomic depth that rewards a full day or an overnight stay. A helicopter flight to the Champagne Region from Amsterdam places this world entirely within reach, with the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa providing one of the finest addresses in France for those who choose to stay.
The Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa, perched above the vineyards at Champillon with views over the Marne Valley to Épernay, is a benchmark property: Relais & Châteaux, a Michelin-starred restaurant, a spa among the vines. Arriving by private helicopter to the Champagne Region, rather than after five hours on a motorway, changes the nature of the visit entirely. The journey becomes part of the occasion.
Flights can be arranged from locations across the Netherlands, depending on regulations, conditions and operational feasibility: so the journey begins close to where you are, rather than from a fixed airport at significant distance from your home or office.
Request your flight to ChampagneDirect flight over France. No check-in, no queues, no connections. You board and depart.
HIGH END AIRVia A1/E17 through Belgium and into the Champagne Ardenne. Subject to border delays and significant motorway fatigue.
Amsterdam to Paris by Thalys, then TGV to Reims or Épernay, then onward transfer. Multiple connections, fixed schedule, luggage complications.
Despite the flight time, helicopter travel eliminates transfers, waiting times and airport procedures: making the overall journey significantly more efficient and the arrival experience entirely different from any ground alternative.
Four reasons a helicopter flight to the Champagne Region transforms a distant ambition into a same-day reality.
No car hire, no motorway, no congestion. A helicopter to the Champagne Region delivers you directly into the landscape: the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs, the river Marne winding through vines. The journey is an approach, not a chore.
With under two hours in the air each way, the Champagne Region is entirely viable for a day trip from the Netherlands: or the ideal destination for a private overnight at the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa, with Michelin dining and views over Épernay.
The major champagne houses: Moët & Chandon, Ruinart, Billecart-Salmon, Krug: offer private tastings and cellar tours by appointment. Arriving by helicopter, rather than by rental car after a five-hour drive, sets the appropriate tone for the occasion.
Because you charter the aircraft, departure and return times are yours entirely. A morning visit to the vineyards, lunch at a Michelin table, an afternoon cellar tour, and an early evening return: all of it is possible without a single constraint.
Departures are coordinated from established helipad infrastructure across the Netherlands. Where possible and subject to operational feasibility, we also arrange departures from private properties, corporate locations or other approved sites, depending on regulations and conditions.

Major houses including Moët & Chandon, Ruinart, Billecart-Salmon, Krug and many smaller domaines offer private appointments. We can assist with introductions to estates that are not open to the general public: helicopter arrival is, in many cases, an advantage in this regard.
