SKY RIDE

Sky Ride is a private flight booking service in Panama. It links travellers with independent air operators. It gives quotes for charter flights and helicopter rides to places such as Contadora, San Blas, Bocas del Toro and Costa Rica. It then helps with the booking and with plans for the flight.

The service has three main parts. Charter flights leave from Panama City for groups, families and short trips. Helicopter rides fly over Panama City, the Canal and the Pacific islands. Shared seats let single travellers or couples join a private flight at a lower cost.

The site lists starting prices for popular routes. Panama City to Contadora starts from 373.32 dollars and takes about 20 minutes. Panama City to Bocas del Toro starts from 1,514.95 dollars. Panama City to San Blas starts from 3,080 dollars.

Aircraft come from the partner operators. The site shows the Cessna 206, Piper Azteca, Piper Saratoga, Piper Cherokee and Cessna 172 for short trips with three to five passengers. For longer routes, it names Kodiak and Grand Caravan turboprops for up to 12 passengers. Pressurised King Air planes cover flights to Costa Rica or Medellin.

The site says the network has 13 aircraft and flights to more than 20 destinations. It operates in Panama and Costa Rica. Flights use airports such as Albrook and Marcos A. Gelabert.
