Big Events, Big Traffic: A Real Problem
When it comes to major events — sports, concerts, trade shows or cultural happenings — traffic becomes one of the biggest obstacles to a quality experience. It’s not just a momentary inconvenience: arriving late, missing part of the show or a key appointment, failing to find parking, spending hours stuck in car queues or shuttle lines — these are common issues that directly affect how one perceives the event.
Urban centers and elite venues — racetracks, stadiums or exhibition complexes — often turn into logistical bottlenecks during high‑attendance occasions. The impact on time and comfort can be major: getting to the venue can become a nightmare, especially for those with professional commitments, clients to receive or tight schedules to honor.
Available alternatives — public transportation, taxis, event shuttles — are often overcrowded, slow, or unpredictable. Even “VIP” transport options sometimes offered by event organizers don’t solve the core issue: road congestion remains a structural limitation, not easily bypassed except by air.
So the key question becomes: is there a way to bypass traffic entirely and attend events with maximum efficiency and comfort? The answer is yes — via helicopter transfer. This solution allows you to fly over the problem, optimize every minute of your day, and turn arriving at the event into part of the experience itself.
Elilombarda offers a professional, certified and personalized service designed for those who refuse to compromise on time, comfort and logistical performance.
Helicopters as a Solution to Traffic Chaos
When roads get blocked and travel times become unpredictable, a helicopter is the fastest and most efficient way to reach major events. This choice isn’t just about luxury or prestige — it’s about pure logistical optimization. Thanks to the possibility of taking off from several bases and landing in dedicated areas or temporarily authorized landing sites, a helicopter can reach event locations in just a few minutes, completely bypassing road congestion.
The main advantage is time savings: what could take two or three hours by car translates into a 15–20 minute safe and comfortable flight. This difference becomes crucial for high‑attendance events such as the Gran Premio di Monza, major concerts, international trade fairs or corporate summits — where punctuality is an integral part of the experience.
Another significant aspect is scheduling flexibility. While traditional transport modes are bound to fixed times or dependent on traffic conditions, a helicopter offers personalized planning freedom — allowing you to arrive and leave whenever you choose. This gives you full control over your time and an experience fully tailored to your individual or corporate needs.
Finally, consider the experiential value: a helicopter flight is not just transport, but a value‑adding prelude to the event itself. Flying over the city, landing near the venue, and enjoying privileged access becomes a true exclusive “business card,” leaving a memorable impression on clients, partners or guests.
With Elilombarda, these aerial transfers are handled with top‑level safety: certified crews, multi‑engine aircraft, and an organization recognized across Europe.

Major Events Where a Helicopter Makes the Difference
There are occasions when speed and privileged access are not luxuries — they are necessities. Large national and international events attract thousands of people every year, generating congestion, delays, and logistical complexities that only a vehicle like a helicopter can overcome. With its certified fleet and experience, Elilombarda represents the ideal solution for reaching these events directly, safely and impeccably.
One of the most obvious examples is the Gran Premio di Monza (Formula 1 Grand Prix in Monza). During race weekend, the city and its surroundings become a critical traffic hub. As the official operator of the event’s helicopter‑landing zone, Elilombarda offers authorized take‑offs and landings, VIP booking management and dedicated assistance. In just a few minutes you can land directly at the racetrack — without stress and without delays.
Other major events include Salone del Mobile and Milan Design Week, which draw professionals from all over the world. For managers and companies that need to move swiftly among meetings, showrooms and presentations, the helicopter enables rapid transfers between locations that are hard to reach by car.
There are also concerts, music festivals, private events, high‑end weddings, golf tournaments and corporate events in exclusive locations — where distance and accessibility become a barrier. In these cases, Elilombarda plans bespoke helicopter transfers even for small groups, offering flexible scheduling and maximum discretion.
With strategic operational bases, authorizations for airports such as Lugano and London City, and 24/7 flight management, Elilombarda ensures a wide logistical presence and an international‑level service — ideal for anyone who demands only the best.
How the Helicopter Flight Service Works
One of the main advantages of Elilombarda’s helicopter service is how smoothly every flight is organized — despite the technical and logistical complexity that air transfers entail. Our structure enables a fluid, personalized and secure management of each step — from the initial request to post‑flight support.
The first step is requesting information or a quote, via website, phone or email. Our team gathers all necessary details: date, event, departure and arrival locations, number of passengers, and preferred times. This allows us to assess operational feasibility and propose the best options in terms of aircraft, timing and costs.
Once the itinerary is defined, we assign the most suitable helicopter. Elilombarda operates modern, multi‑engine helicopters that deliver high performance even under complex operational conditions. Each aircraft is constantly monitored and maintained by our in‑house PAR 145‑certified maintenance unit, ensuring one of the highest safety standards in Europe.
The flight departs from one of our operational bases (e.g. Milan Linate Prime, Varese, etc.) or other authorized take‑off/landing sites. On request, we can arrange landings at hotels, corporate facilities or exclusive venues — subject to technical and authorization checks.
During the flight, the crew ensures discreet and punctual assistance. Onboard extras such as personalized catering, branded welcome kits or corporate gifts can be arranged.
At the end of the flight, our staff arranges ground transfer to the event, and — if required — the return flight as well. Every stage is managed as “full‑service,” with a single operational contact available 24/7.
