Char Dham helicopter pilgrimages and private charters arranged from Dehradun, India
Udan Aviation is a helicopter travel company with its head office in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. It is led by founder Rashmi Negi, and a YourStory company profile gives 2022 as its founding year. The name is not connected to the Indian government's UDAN regional connectivity scheme.
Its main business is helicopter pilgrimage packages to the Char Dham shrines of Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath, as well as shorter Do Dham trips. These flights depart from Sahastradhara Helipad in Dehradun, and packages bundle the flights with hotels, meals and ground transport. The company also lists trips to Amarnath, Vaishno Devi, Kailash Mansarovar and Muktinath.
Beyond packages, the website offers private charters on helicopters, jets, turboprops and piston aircraft, plus air ambulance and flower-dropping flights. It says flights are run in association with licensed Indian helicopter operators, so it should be treated as arranging flights with third-party operators. Helicopter types named on the site include the Bell 407, Airbus H125 and H130 and AgustaWestland AW109, but the list is not consistent across pages.
Flyers booking a charter should ask which DGCA-licensed operator and aircraft will fly the trip, since the website does not name them.
