The Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail is New Zealand, in all its color and beauty

HOW TO GIVE BACK AND CARE FOR NEW ZEALAND HERE AT MOUNT COOK SKI PLANES & HELICOPTERS.
Our sustainability initiatives are a driving force behind our brand. The INFLITE group is committed to reducing our impact on the environment and making the business a more sustainable one. Here at Mount Cook Ski & Helicopters we do a number of things to help with this, customers can donate online for the Kea Trust when making an online booking, trying to stay as paperless as we can (email receipt rather than print).
Our squirrel helicopters burn 40 litres less per hour than the standard helicopter (retro fitted with more carbon friendly engines ). Overall, using the Skip Planes that have higher passenger capacity reduces the carbon admissions further. We are the only company operating in the West Coast/Aoraki National Park area that has a policy to shut down our aircraft on all scenic landings. Not only for the customer experience but of the carbon factor and safety also with the shutdowns.
