air charter service-2015


CHRIS LEACH, CHAIRMAN AND FOUNDER OF ACS

I am very pleased, as Chairman of the Air Charter Service Group, to be able to present this overview of our organization. 2015 marks 25 years since my wife and I formed the company in our family home. In the years since then the business has grown in size and experience, and is today regarded as one of the largest and most respected charter companies in the world.

We still believe in the family ethos on which the company was founded however, with a significant percentage of our employees being shareholders.

OUR RANGE OF AIRCRAFT


OUR COMPLIANCE, YOUR SAFETY

Safety is our number one priority. It is why our dedicated safety and compliance team monitor every booking closely – checking that all operators have an up-to-date Aircraft Operator Certificate (AOC) and relevant policies and insurance. We and the regulatory bodies also have blacklists to cross-check the operators against. So if there are any discrepancies with safety accreditation, we will not permit the aircraft in question to depart.

ACS Inc. is a ‘Wyvern Authorized Broker’, an accreditation that is only awarded to companies within the industry who uphold Wyvern safety standards.


A MORE PERSONAL SERVICE

Our dedicated team of experts has a single, primary focus: 33 to deliver a tailored, personal service which exceeds expectations. Every one of our clients is assigned a personal account manager who is available, 24/7 – whether that is fulfilling bespoke catering requirements on an executive aircraft, creating specialist branding for a large group charter, or arranging the complexities of cargo transportation.
