Coastair Chartering will be based at Farnborough Airport and Alan Baldwin will be branch manager of the UK office.

Baldwin is a former Volga-Dnepr Group employee where he held the position of new business development manager.

He also worked for CargoLogicManagement as manager, new business development.

Baldwin will be responsible for developing the group’s four key business verticals in the UK which cover air charters, cargo handling, GSA development and butler services.

The new office is located at The Hub, Farnborough Business Park, Hampshire and is based in the former airport terminal and control tower.
