HeliFly Limited has introduced a helicopter service connecting Malta and Gozo, enabling travel between the two islands in just 10 minutes. Founded by Italian lawyer Elio Blasio, who has been residing in Malta with his family for over a year, the company offers not only the Malta-Gozo transport service but also tours around the islands and trips to Sicily, Panarea, and North Africa.
Dr. Blasio, a trained military helicopter pilot and former flight department commander of the Guardia di Finanza in Rome, emphasizes the unique perspective helicopter travel provides. He states, “When you fly by helicopter over Malta, you can admire its beauty.”

HeliFly operates various helicopter models, including the Robinson R-22 and the Agusta A-109, catering to a diverse clientele ranging from tourists to VIPs and business professionals.
In addition to transportation and tours, HeliFly is collaborating with the European Pilot Academy and Eurotech-Ariane and Falcon Alliance to establish Malta’s first helicopter training school.
