How to read the table
Score is the sum of eight criteria (max 100). Google shows the Maps rating and review count. AOC / CAAT reference is "yes" only when an operator certificate, CAAT reference or independent safety audit is published on the company's site. Prices published: all, some or none of the named tours, routes or aircraft carry a price. Own aircraft counts only aircraft the company states it operates.

These companies are in the directory, but either no Google Maps listing could be confirmed in the current snapshot or the company falls outside the scoring scope, so the two Google criteria cannot be scored.

Frequently asked questions
Which helicopter tour or jet charter company in Phuket scores highest?
By total score, the top three are Skydance Helicopter Tours (49.6/100), MJets (42.1/100) and Advance Aviation (41.1/100). The score is the sum of eight criteria: Google Maps rating and review count, a published Air Operator Certificate (AOC) or CAAT reference, published prices per route or aircraft, own aircraft, years on the market, languages and booking transparency.
What is the difference between an operator and a broker?
An operator owns or operates the aircraft and holds an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT); a broker sells seats and flights on operators' aircraft. Each profile states what the company calls itself on its own website and whether a certificate is published. Brokers without own aircraft score zero on the own-aircraft criterion.
How much does a helicopter tour or helicopter charter in Phuket cost?
Prices are taken only from company websites and shown on the profiles as printed: per seat on a sightseeing tour, per flight or per flight hour, in baht or US dollars. We do not convert currencies. If no price is published the profile says "not stated" and the company loses points on the price criterion.
Why are international brokers listed without a rank?
They have a Phuket destination page but no Google Maps listing in Thailand, so the two Google criteria cannot be scored. They are shown for completeness and do not take part in the ranking.
How often is the data updated?
Google Maps numbers are refreshed about once a month and the snapshot date is shown on the page. Website facts are re-checked at least quarterly and on request at phuketyachtguide@gmail.com.
