Air Charter Perth: FIFO, Cargo and Medevac

Perth is the operational anchor of Western Australia and the launch point for charter activity across the Pilbara, Kimberley, Goldfields, Mid West and the Indian Ocean rim. Aviall arranges cargo charter, FIFO and corporate group charter, and fixed-wing medevac out of Perth (PER/YPPH), Jandakot (JAD/YPJT) and supporting WA fields, sized to the mission, not to a fixed fleet.

From a same-day light-jet rotation into a Pilbara mining lease to a 60-tonne project move out of Perth's industrial corridors, to an ICU transfer back from a remote site, the Perth ops desk runs every mission to the same standard: aircraft options inside the hour, written quote with a wheels-up window, and a single point of accountability from booking to landing.

Aircraft selection drives airport selection. Larger freighters and widebody passenger movements operate from Perth (PER); smaller jets, turboprops and FIFO rotations are typically based at Jandakot.

• Perth Airport (PER/YPPH), primary international and domestic gateway; full widebody and freighter capability including 777F, 747F, A330F and outsize AN-124 / IL-76 movements with prior coordination
• Jandakot (JAD/YPJT): perth's general aviation airport, base for the FIFO turboprop and light-jet fleet servicing WA mining and resources
• RAAF Base Pearce, military and selected civil contingency operations under coordination
• Selected mining and station strips across the Pilbara, Kimberley and Goldfields for end-of-line operations

Charter demand from Perth is driven by the resources sector, the city's geographic isolation, and its role as the Australian gateway to the Indian Ocean rim.

• FIFO rotations between Perth and remote WA mining, energy and construction sites
• Outsize and time-critical project cargo for resources, defence and infrastructure projects
• Inbound and outbound medevac between remote WA sites and Perth tertiary referral centres
• Corporate and incentive group charter for resources sector employers
• Inter-Australian and Indian Ocean rim cargo charter into and out of Perth
• AOG and aerospace component recovery for operators based across WA

FIFO and corporate group charter is one of the most concentrated charter markets in the world, and Perth is its centre of gravity. Aviall sources narrowbody jets (e.g. 737, A320 family) for high-volume rotations and turboprops for short-strip mining sites. See our full <a href="/group-charter-flights">group charter flights</a> service for the process, fleet tiers and pricing framework.

For freight, Perth Airport is the operational anchor. Aviall sources the right freighter against the shipment, regional 737F for short-haul WA work, A330F or 777F for intercontinental general cargo, 747F nose-loader for long pieces, and AN-124 or IL-76 for genuine outsize project moves into mining, energy and defence sites.

For dangerous goods, oversize, temperature-controlled and high-value cargo, the full mission is run door-to-door including ground handling, customs, permits and inland transport. See our <a href="/cargo-charter">cargo charter service</a> and the dedicated <a href="/cargo-charter-perth">Perth cargo charter</a> page.

Perth is the destination for the majority of serious medical transfers across WA, the Indian Ocean rim and selected Asia-Pacific routes. Where a patient needs to move to or from Perth, we arrange the aircraft, the clinical crew and both ground legs. Apron-side transfer is used where the airport permits. See the <a href="/air-ambulance-medevac">air ambulance and medevac</a> service for clinical capability and aircraft.
