Repatriating Slovak property developers stuck in London
In March 2020, a construction company asked Air Charter Service to help fly a group of Slovak property developers back home from the UK.
With borders closing and countries going into lockdown as the Covid-19 pandemic escalated, we sprung into action to charter a suitable aircraft and secure the necessary permits at short notice.
Our Solution
Route: London > Bratislava
Aircraft: Embraer 145
Despite the client not speaking much English, we quickly ascertained the key details of the brief and began researching potential solutions. Our expert team sourced an Embraer 145 that was available to fly the next day and had sufficient capacity for the 26 passengers and their luggage. We then worked around the clock to negotiate each country’s coronavirus travel restrictions and secure permission for the flight to go ahead.
The Finer Details
Rapid Response: Our 24/7 service meant we were able to finalise the charter within 24 hours of receiving the initial request. The client signed the contract that evening and the flight departed the following morning as soon as payment was received.
