Canberra is the seat of Australian Federal Government and Defence and a high-frequency origin for government, defence and diplomatic charter. Aviall arranges passenger, VIP and medevac charter from CBR with discreet handling, secure ground access where coordinated, and aircraft sized against the mission, light jets for executive and AOG sectors, narrowbody for delegation and event movements, and ICU-grade medevac into Sydney and Melbourne tertiary referral hospitals.
Airport options follow from the aircraft, so we settle the aircraft first.
Charter demand in Canberra is shaped by Federal Government and Defence travel, diplomatic and trade-mission delegations, time-critical movements between Canberra and other capitals, and medevac flows into Sydney and Melbourne tertiary hospitals.

Mission examples · Illustrative
Representative mission profiles drawn from recurring work. Identifying details, operators, hospitals, routes, aircraft tail numbers, are intentionally omitted.
A professional sporting organisation required a squad, support staff and freight moved between two domestic fixtures on a turnaround scheduled flights could not deliver. Aviall configured a narrow-body charter with a freight pallet and custom catering aligned to performance protocols.
Outcome
Squad on the ground at the next venue with a full evening's recovery time intact.
A complex case with ventilator and infusion support required movement from a regional Pacific facility back to a domestic tertiary centre. Aviall configured a long-range jet with a critical-care medical fit-out, coordinated bed-to-bed handover with both treating teams, and managed customs and immigration at each stop.
Outcome
Bed-to-bed transfer completed without clinical deterioration en route.
An ASX-listed resources operator faced a stalled processing line waiting on a single oversized component too large for any scheduled freighter. Aviall sourced an outsize main-deck nose-loader, completed pavement and load-spread checks at the regional destination, and coordinated road movement permits at both ends.
Outcome
Component on site inside 72 hours of first call; production line restart same week.
A project ramp-up required a workforce moved into a remote site on a multi-week rotation pattern. Aviall set a published schedule on a contracted aircraft, with manifest integration into the client's HR system and ground transport coordinated at the regional gateway.
Outcome
Rotation pattern delivered without missed shifts across the project window.
A neonate requiring escalated care had to be moved from a regional hospital to a metropolitan paediatric tertiary centre. Aviall coordinated an aeromedical aircraft and a specialist retrieval team, with isolette-compatible loading and parent transit on the same airframe.
Outcome
Patient delivered to receiving NICU within the clinical window agreed by both teams.
A major carrier had a wide-body grounded at a foreign hub, awaiting a replacement engine sitting in a domestic MRO. Aviall positioned a freighter to the MRO, coordinated dangerous goods documentation for the engine and stand, and held a flight-following bridge with the airline's tech ops cell door-to-door.
Outcome
Engine wheels-up inside 14 hours of release; aircraft returned to service the next operational day.

, Senior freight forwarder · Global 3PL
"They run the mission like an operator, not like a broker. That distinction matters when the cargo is heavy, the route is hard and the clock is real."
