Makani Kai Helicopters - Makani Kai Helicopters has flown more passengers on Oahu than any other helicopter service and after tens of thousands of flights Makani Kai still has an unblemished safety record. The main focus is on safety and is one of the few helicopter companies in the state to participate in TOPS (Tour Operators Program of Safety) which mandates a more rigorous flight and safety standards than are even required by the FAA. All of the pilots at Makani Kai Helicopters were born and raised in Hawaii and as a result have an extraordinary understanding of the unique weather patterns that display themselves here. Foremost among the local born and raised pilots is Richard Schuman the owner. The only times he’s ever been away from the islands was when he spent his college years in Michigan and again when he served his time in the military. Richard obviously knows a good thing when he sees it. He lives on Oahu with his wife Diane and his three beautiful daughters.

Customer Testimonial

Tom,

My family and I just returned from a 2 week trip to Oahu and Maui. Andreas assisted me with all our activities. We enjoyed every aspect of our trip. But most of all I want to point out that Andreas did a great job in booking our activity reservations. Since we were unfamiliar with the hows, what, and whys of traveling to Hawaii we relied on his expertise and if we travel again to Hawaii would not hesitate to give him a call.

We have already told several friends of his helpfulness and professionalism so hopefully you will be getting some phone calls.
