Aircraft Management

PrivatAir offers a comprehensive aircraft management programme, which includes the following services:

Maintenance: All PrivatAir aircraft are maintained in accordance with applicable regulations and the manufacturer's maintenance programme.

Crew Services: Professional flight crews are assigned to each managed aircraft, following in-depth interviews and a comprehensive medical examination. 

Training: All pilots receive classroom and simulator training on the organisation's procedures and policies for both owner and charter operations. Pilots must complete a simulator proficiency flight check and recurrent classroom training every six months. Flight attendants complete recurrent cabin service training each year and all flight personnel receive specific training on how to handle emergency events.

Safety: All pilot training programmes are regularly reviewed and revised to ensure that policies address operational needs while providing the highest level of safety. All scheduled and unscheduled maintenance is performed in accordance with airworthiness regulations. All crew members and maintenance personnel participate in an approved pre-employment and random drug and alcohol testing programme.

Flight Operations: All flight operations personnel are responsible for scheduling and dispatching of both owner and charter flights. A flight itinerary (airports of departure and arrival, ground handling, estimated flight times, catering, ground transportation, hotels), is sent to the customer prior to each flight, which is subsequently tracked from take off to landing. Sales, operations and maintenance staff are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to provide the customer with up-to-date information.

Accounting Services: All aircraft billings are checked to ensure proper current charges, and to identify each specific flight-related expense. Invoices include a complete breakdown showing each vendor and amount paid, along with a full listing of individual charges by category. PrivatAir's clear and precise Quarterly Aircraft Management Reports ensure aircraft owners receive responsible budgets, accurate cost and charter revenue information with no surprises. Naturally, all proprietary client information is held at the highest level of confidentiality.
