Plane, Helicopter & Cargo Charter Services Across Florida & The Bahamas.
Tropic Air Charters is an FAA-certificated Part 135 on-demand air carrier and operator providing qualified plane, helicopter, cargo, yacht-provisioning, freight-forwarder, and island-logistics charter services across Florida and The Bahamas.
One Charter Partner for Passenger Travel, Cargo, and Island Logistics.
Tropic Air Charters is built for clients who need more than transportation. Some missions are private passenger flights. Others are cargo movements, yacht provisioning needs, resort supply, construction support, or time-sensitive island logistics.
The charter team reviews the complete mission and determines whether an acceptable aircraft, crew, route, loading, timing, documentation, and destination plan is available.

Aircraft, Capacity, Route, Timing, and Support Services Are Confirmed by Mission
Published service descriptions explain general capability and do not guarantee a particular aircraft, crew, seat count, payload, baggage allowance, schedule, airport, landing site, route, handling service, storage, consolidation, refrigeration, ground transport, or final delivery.
Aircraft and crew availability, maintenance status, passengers, baggage, cargo, fuel, route, weather, airport or landing-site conditions, customs, immigration, permissions, documentation, loading, weight-and-balance, dangerous-goods restrictions, and destination readiness may affect acceptance, pricing, and timing.
Only the itinerary, aircraft path, shipment, and services expressly identified in the written charter confirmation are accepted. Operational conditions may require delay, rerouting, aircraft substitution, rescheduling, or cancellation.
Need Air Rescue Support?
Air rescue, emergency-response, and medical-transport inquiries use a separate dedicated service path. Rescue-related visitors should use the Tropic Air Rescue website and its approved contact process rather than the standard charter request form.
Charter Services FAQ
These answers help visitors understand how to choose the right service path before submitting a charter request.
What is the difference between plane charter and cargo charter?
Plane charter is generally focused on private passenger travel, while cargo charter is focused on moving freight, supplies, provisions, equipment, or other approved cargo. Some missions may involve both passengers and cargo, subject to aircraft capacity and operational review.
Can Tropic Air Charters help with helicopter charter?
Yes. Tropic Air Charters has FAA-listed Sikorsky S-76B helicopter capability. Every request remains subject to aircraft and crew availability, landing-site permission and suitability, route, weather, payload, and final operational acceptance.
What information should I provide for a cargo quote?
Provide the exact contents, origin, destination, requested timing, verified weight and dimensions of every piece, quantity, packaging, cooling materials, photographs when requested, shipper, consignee, documentation, dangerous-goods status, receiver, and handling details.
Do you support yacht provisioning and island supply?
Tropic Air Charters can review yacht-provisioning and island-supply charter requests involving appropriately packaged provisions, equipment, supplies, perishables, and time-sensitive cargo. Receiving, storage, consolidation, refrigeration, ground transport, and final delivery are not guaranteed.
Is Air Rescue handled through this charter services page?
No. Tropic Air Rescue uses a separate service and contact path. Standard passenger, helicopter, and cargo charter inquiries use the central charter request form; active rescue or emergency-response needs should use the dedicated rescue resource.

Whether the request involves plane charter, helicopter charter, cargo movement, yacht provisioning, or island logistics, Tropic Air Charters can evaluate the mission and determine whether an acceptable charter plan is available.
