Group charter operations

A group charter flight is a private aircraft chartered for a single group of passengers travelling together, your team, your delegation, your tour, your evacuation cohort. The schedule is yours. The aircraft is yours for the rotation. The catering, baggage allowance and ground handling are configured around your requirements rather than a published timetable.

Group charter flights typically range from 8 seats on an executive jet through 50-80 seat regional aircraft, 150-220 seat narrow-bodies, and 250-400+ seats on wide-body aircraft for the larger movements.

Charter vs commercial travel

Group charter is the right tool when commercial inventory cannot absorb the group, or when the schedule and destination require direct, connection-free lift.

Mission examples · Illustrative

What this looks like in operation

Representative mission profiles drawn from recurring work. Identifying details, operators, hospitals, routes, aircraft tail numbers, are intentionally omitted.

Sport · Team movement

Professional squad on a tight fixture turnaround

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.

Resources · FIFO

Project-scale FIFO into a remote site

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.

Corporate · Executive

Board offsite across multiple regional ports

A listed company's board required a multi-leg itinerary across regional ports on a single day, with discretion and on-tarmac executive transfers at each stop. Aviall sourced a midsize executive jet, built the schedule around meeting times and managed FBO arrangements at every airport.

Outcome

Full itinerary completed on schedule; board returned to base the same evening.

Frequently asked questions
