Charter broker Air Charter Service has made a series of appointments to its leasing team in response to increased demand.
The broker said that it had appointed six new members of staff around the world in response to the rising demand for aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance (ACMI) services.
Matthew Purton, ACS’s group charter director, said: “Our current leasing teams have had a busy couple of years, especially in ACMI, and we have decided to expand our service offering around the world, in order to connect to even more markets.
“These appointments bring several new languages to the team and give truly global coverage, which is something that no other company can offer.
“On top of the teams we already have in place, this new expansion will now include our Toronto, Mexico City, Johannesburg, Dubai, Hong Kong and Brisbane offices. As we do with our daily business of charters, we are looking to bring more localised knowledge and contacts to the global business of leasing aircraft between different parts of the world.”
The company said that it has completed a number of intercontinental leases over the past few years and has recently gained exclusivity on an A321F, available now for lease.
“We predict that the demand for leases, especially ACMI, will continue due to supply chain issues and certain aircraft being grounded for engine troubles in the latest of a series of issues, and this new team is perfectly equipped to help out,” said Purton.
