Inflight support
We understand that plans can change when inflight. Support needs to be provided in real-time 24×7 to support the decision making process for diverts due to unexpected events like maintenance, weather or medical emergency. Our inflight support team are there when you need us most.
Flight-planning
If you do not require the full-service offering provided by Trip Planning & Support, we offer a focused flight planning only service offering. We can provide a service using your existing flight planning tools or we can provide a complete solution.
Our process:
Our flight planning team pre-emptively produce a flight plan and the initial crew briefing pack from the earliest opportunity, which is key to ensuring efficient and timely response to customer changes. Using a combination of commercial understanding, technology and experience we begin by compiling operational restrictions, along with NOTAMs, destination alternates and en-route alternates to ensure your flight runs safely and efficiently. Coordinating handling requests and securing overflight and landing permits ensures you have a safe and efficient flight.
Weather information will be analysed by our highly trained team with the impact used to influence planning decisions. Our underpinning software automatically calculates aircraft and airfield performance and sends these to the flight planner.
We compile required materials within the crew briefing pack and review and approve before transmission to the flight crew. The flight plan is filed with the relevant STC authorizes and the crew briefing pack is issued.
