Founded in 1990, Air Charter Service (ACS) is the world's largest charter brokerage, arranging passenger and cargo aircraft charters globally. The company operates across all six major continents, providing on-demand access to private jets, helicopters, commercial airliners, and cargo aircraft. Its network spans business travel, leisure, time-critical logistics, and emergency relief operations.
ACS arranges over 35,000 flights annually through a 24/7 operational model. The brokerage does not operate its own fleet; instead, it coordinates aircraft sourcing from third-party operators to match client requirements for aircraft type, capacity, and routing. This includes widebody freighters for urgent cargo, executive jets for point-to-point business travel, and commercial airliners configured for group charters.
Headquartered in the United Kingdom with offices worldwide, ACS maintains a presence across major aviation markets. The company's operational tempo and breadth of aircraft categories - spanning piston twins to heavy cargo types - reflect its position as a high-volume intermediary in the global charter sector. Its service model relies on sustained operator relationships, regulatory familiarity across jurisdictions, and round-the-clock dispatch capability.
