OUR HISTORY

Unveiling the story of Gum Air N.V.

  • Surinam Sky Farmers

    Surinam Sky Farmers was founded when the Gummels brothers responded to the decision of the fledgling agricultural industry to start aerial crop treatment.
  • Gum Air (GA)

    Once Surinam Sky Farmers was fully operational SML requested passenger transportation by air, from Wageningen to Paramaribo. This was the solution to the long and tiring journey that lasted no less than 6 hours. With this request the idea was born to start with domestic flights to the interior. Gum Air has now been in business for more than 50 years and has vast experience in bush flying and operating to every single airfield in Suriname. With our fleet we mainly serve tour operators, mining businesses, local villages, medical cases and government support flights. In collaboration with Trans Guyana Airways (TGA) we maintain the Suriname – Guyana Route. GA also offers ticketing, ground handling, maintenance, refueling, passenger and cargo handling services.
  • Heliport Paramaribo/EAG International Airport

    In 2015 Gum Air started operating Heliport Paramaribo, the first heliport built in Suriname and located at the Gummelsweg, which was mainly used for helicopter charters as well as offshore oil and gas (O&G) activities. With the oil and gas discoveries, offshore drilling activities are increasing significantly, requiring efficient and safe transport of people and materials to and from the drilling platforms. The transition from Heliport Paramaribo to Eduard Alexander Gummels Airport began when two new hangars and a passenger terminal were added to the facility. EAG Airport is managed by EAG Airport Management N.V..
