Kestrel Aviation

Kestrel Aviation is an Indian helicopter services company. Its current website concentrates on pilgrimage flights in Uttarakhand, with package prices quoted ex-Dehradun.

Listed services include helicopter charter, VIP transportation and search and rescue work, alongside a range of pilgrimage packages: Char Dham, Do Dham, Kedarnath and Badrinath, as well as Kailash Mansarovar and Amarnath Yatra packages.

The aircraft featured on the website is the Leonardo (Agusta) AW119, a single-engine helicopter with up to eight seats. News coverage from 2024 reports a Kestrel helicopter operating shuttle flights between Sersi helipad and Kedarnath, which confirms the company's activity on that route.

The website does not state an operating permit number or a founding year. Flyers considering a private charter should ask the company for its DGCA permit details and the base from which their flight would operate.
