The Market Reports

Synopsis
The global market for Helicopter-based Transportation was estimated to be worth US$ 1061 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1454 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Helicopter-based transportation refers to the use of helicopters for the efficient and versatile movement of passengers, goods, or services, particularly in situations where speed, accessibility, or the ability to reach remote or difficult-to-access locations is essential. This mode of transport is widely employed across various sectors, including emergency medical services, corporate travel, search and rescue operations, military missions, and more, offering a unique combination of agility, direct routing, and the capability to operate in diverse environments.
Helicopter transportation plays an important role in modern logistics, emergency rescue and military fields, especially in areas with limited ground transportation or imperfect infrastructure. Its high mobility and vertical take-off and landing capabilities make it an indispensable mode of transportation.
According to the load capacity, helicopter transportation can be divided into light load (below 100kg), medium load (100-500kg, 500-1000kg), heavy load (1000-3000kg) and super heavy load categories. In 2024, 100-500kg accounted for 37.55%, and different load levels are suitable for different application scenarios.
In terms of application, rescue supplies accounted for 31.54% in 2024. Helicopters can quickly deliver rescue supplies in disaster relief (such as earthquakes, floods and forest fires) to improve response efficiency. In addition, in the field of infrastructure construction, helicopters can be used to transport construction materials to mountainous areas, high-rise construction or offshore platforms, effectively solving the problem that traditional ground transportation is difficult to cover. The energy industry, such as oil drilling platforms and wind power equipment maintenance, also relies heavily on the precise transportation capabilities of helicopters. In the military, helicopters can quickly deliver supplies to the front line, improving the flexibility of tactical deployment. In terms of medical supplies transportation, helicopters are particularly suitable for remote areas and emergency medical rescue, ensuring that medical resources can be delivered in a timely manner.
In the future, with the development of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) technology, helicopter transportation will be more environmentally friendly and low-cost, and play a greater role in the field of urban air logistics (UAM). At the same time, the integration of autonomous driving and artificial intelligence technology will further improve the safety and efficiency of helicopter transportation, making it more widely used around the world.
