Antigua Sailing Week organisers are thrilled to welcome CalvinAir Helicopters, local provider of luxury air transport, as a sponsor of the event which takes place from April 27 through May 3, 2024.
CalvinAir Helicopters will bring an unparalleled level of support to the event by providing generous helicopter flight time to Antigua Sailing Weeks’ media team in order to capture aerial coverage of the races for global distribution via race reports, social media and destination marketing.
Jaiden Fleming, Marketing Manager at CalvinAir, expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration saying, “We are thrilled to again partner with Antigua Sailing Week, and through this sponsorship, CalvinAir also aims to contribute to the thrill and spectacle of this iconic regatta, by offering an unforgettable experience in the air.”
For the second year, CalvinAir Helicopters will also enhance the event’s spectator Chase the Race by scheduling 30 minute flights daily to watch the racing from April 28 – May 3 at US $199 per person.
Those who want to take their spectating to higher heights can Chase the Race in one of CalvinAir’s state-of-the-art Airbus H130 helicopters to witness the regatta from a unique vantage point.

This partnership with CalvinAir allows us to expand our spectator options in a very unique manner.”
