Our ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) department successfully secured 327 ad-hoc hours in March 2026, despite a downturn in ACMI across Europe and tough market conditions.
April is already proving hugely busy for the team, with growth outside of Europe as well as several long term contracts already agreed for the summer ahead.
The 327 ad-hoc hours were mostly operated in Europe, by narrow and wide-bodied aircraft, for our existing airline clients who place their trust in our team to deliver solutions quickly and efficiently.
ACMI market capacity
The team’s careful approach and excellent network of relationships with operators have driven the recent success. Despite an overall downturn in ACMI in Europe and volatile market conditions, due to global political turbulence affecting operations and fuel prices, we have still managed to meet the demands and expectations of our clients and suppliers.
Jamie Milsom, ACMI Broker, says, “There is currently good aircraft availability in the market, and we work with clients and suppliers to provide cover for short-term demands due to technical or operational challenges, providing prompt, reliable, cost-effective solutions on a regular basis.
We encourage airlines to be realistic with pricing in the months ahead. If you have availability, please reach out to us directly as we are always happy to market spare capacity to lessees.”
ACMI for summer 2026
As one of the leading providers of global ACMI charters for over two decades, we’ll continue to be at the forefront of ACMI leasing for the peak summer season in Europe, from May to September, and beyond.
The team is available 24-7 to respond to ACMI requests, and with our market expertise, we can find solutions quickly and efficiently.
Jamie Milsom, ACMI Broker, says, “It’s been a very positive start to 2026 in terms of ACMI and there’s every indication that we will continue to be busy. Summer is always our busiest time of year and we are looking forward to running successful schedules for our clients in partnership with some of our trusted airline partners.”
