A platoon doesn't have a fixed number of personell. It is generally the smallest unit commanded by an officer and can number as few as 5 men up to 100.

The modern Chinook can carry 33 - 55 combat soldiers so it is an ideal mode of transport for the task.

On the other hand you could fit a company of around 175 into a chinook, if they were all dead. That's always something you have to keep in mind.
