Visitors frequently have questions about the ground transportation available to and from our terminals. At Maverick Airlines, we pride ourselves in providing VIP treatment to every guest from start to finish. So all of our airline tours include this complimentary service.

Maverick Airlines has three types of buses—which seat 24, 32 and 35 passengers. They are silver and clearly marked with our red and black Maverick Aviation Group logo. We also have several white vans displaying the Maverick Aviation Group logo that can seat up to 12 passengers. All of our vehicles feature comfortable seating and are equipped with air conditioning, as well as a radio for your listening pleasure.



One of our trusted drivers will pick you up from a designated location at your hotel. If you have questions about where to meet our driver, feel free to ask someone in the lobby and they will direct you to the right spot. Our driver will call out passengers’ names and remind everyone to have a photo ID and method of payment with them before getting in. Finally, the driver will conduct a head count before leaving to ensure that all passengers are on board.

After departing your hotel, the driver may make other stops—along or near the world-famous Strip—to pick up additional Maverick Airlines’ passengers. Thus, your adventure with us actually begins when a bus arrives to carry you to our South Las Vegas terminal at the Henderson Executive Airport.

Once you arrive at Maverick Airlines’ terminal, you will be greeted warmly by our staff and checked in. Soon you will be on your way to enjoying your scenic helicopter tour!

Within a 5 mile radius of Las Vegas Strip.

At the Grand Canyon it can become windy and the weather can change quickly. So it is important that you dress properly and are prepared for whatever the weather conditions.

Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam and Valley of Fire are among the world’s top travel destinations. Every year, millions of people come to enjoy these natural and manmade wonders. And when they visit they take lots of photos—hundreds, maybe even thousands of them! Most will go home with okay snapshots, while others might give up—deciding to buy postcards or a book instead. Want to make the most of your photo opportunities? Read more for a few tips to help you best capture these breathtaking destinations.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of reasons to visit the Grand Canyon. Being the largest National Park in the United States, you can hike, raft, picnic and many other things. Here are some reasons we would like to share. Read more...

So what exactly do you know about the famed rocky gorge located in the Arizona desert? For trivia about the Grand Canyon—one of the biggest and most interesting examples of erosion in the world—read here!

I was born and raised in Las Vegas, which is located a mere 300 miles from the Grand Canyon. That’s a four-hour drive by car, and less than an hour flight by helicopter. Since the Grand Canyon was right here in my backyard, I never felt a pressing urge to visit—even though it’s one of the most written about and most photographed places on Earth. I just assumed I’d get around to it some day.

Well, some day finally came. I won’t tell you my age—but suffice to say, my Grand Canyon visit was at least 30 years overdue. Just a few years ago, I went on a bus tour to the canyon’s popular South Rim. I don’t really know how to describe the experience, as nothing prepared me for the feeling of awe I had upon walking up to the first of several different viewpoints that day. Basically, I just gazed out at the grand expanse. I think the sheer enormity of it is what took my breath away. In fact, its size actually makes visiting seem daunting. Did you know the Grand Canyon National Park covers more than a million acres of gorgeous geography? You’d need two weeks to properly take all that in. My day trip soon began to feel terribly inadequate.

Thus, two years ago, my boyfriend and I booked a late-afternoon helicopter tour to Grand Canyon West, which is even closer to Las Vegas, situated only 140 miles away. I’d never been on a helicopter, so it was quite a rush when it lifted up and looped above the Strip. I saw some amazing views of the Las Vegas valley, Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. Eventually, the helicopter came over some jagged cliffs and there the Grand Canyon laid—a spectacular vision with the fading sun reflecting in the clouds. Seeing the terrain and the more-than-a-mile drops below me was mind-blowing…and, then we descended into the canyon, some 1,500 feet beneath the rim! The whole experience was surreal.

The thing is I’m not finished with the Grand Canyon. I still want to see more of it. I’ve got a longing to hike to the canyon floor, and perhaps to raft down the Colorado River. I’d also like to set foot on the North Rim.

All I can say is no matter how you do it, you should definitely visit the Grand Canyon—at least once. Everything is dramatic around the plateaus and beneath the river-carved rim. And everything is big, including the experience you’ll have in this vast, legendary expanse. If you’re anything like me, you’ll surely get addicted!
