Every
year since 1998, the Federal Aviation Administration has honored Blue
Hawaiian Helicopters’ Maintenance Technicians with its coveted
“Certificate of Excellence—Diamond Award.” No other helicopter tour
company in Hawaii has ever earned this award. Blue Hawaiian was further
honored in 2009 by the FAA with its extremely rare “Platinum Award,”
earned for consistent excellence, year after year.
Blue Hawaiian
was the first company in the United States to be certified under the
Tour Operators Program of Safety (TOPS), and the first helicopter tour
company in the world to be certified under the H.A.I. Platinum Program
of Safety.
Blue Hawaiian Helicopters is also the only
helicopter tour company in Hawaii certified by the Department of Defense
to provide air transportation to the United States Government.
Stringent biannual safety audits are performed by a dedicated U.S.
Military Safety Audit team to ensure that the company complies with the
highest safety standards in all areas, with a focus on operations and
maintenance.
