Group travel changes the charter requirement

When a larger number of people need to move together, the aircraft is only one part of the planning.

Passenger numbers, baggage, equipment, check-in arrangements, airport access, departure timing, ground transport and the return schedule can all affect the solution.

Corporate Groups

Charter flights for teams, conferences, incentive travel, meetings, corporate events and company movements. 

Sports Teams

Aircraft sourcing around team numbers, support staff, baggage, equipment and competition schedules. 

Events & Entertainment

Coordinated air travel for events, productions, performers, crew, guests and time-sensitive movements. 

Tours & Special Groups

Aircraft options for tourism programs, private groups, delegations and organised itineraries.

Project Teams

Move technical personnel, contractors and project groups directly to regional or remote locations.

One flight. One schedule. One movement.

Group charter can be particularly useful where:

scheduled airline capacity is limited; the destination has poor airline connectivity; the group needs to arrive together; specialist baggage or equipment is travelling; the event dictates the schedule; or multiple airline connections would make the movement unnecessarily complex.

AeroBroker can also assess whether a combination of aircraft, airports or timings provides a better solution.

Choosing aircraft for a group charter

Depending on group size and destination, options may include turboprop aircraft, regional passenger aircraft or larger airliners.

AeroBroker considers the complete requirement including passenger count, baggage, route, runway, timing and aircraft availability.

The aim is not to find the largest aircraft. It is to identify aircraft with the appropriate capacity and capability for the mission.

Group Charter Questions

How many passengers are needed for group charter?

There is no fixed minimum. The appropriate solution depends on the route, passenger numbers, available aircraft and the commercial comparison with scheduled travel.

Can sports equipment or specialist baggage be carried?

Potentially. Provide the quantity, dimensions and weight as early as possible so aircraft baggage capacity can be considered during sourcing.

Can AeroBroker charter an airliner?

AeroBroker can source aircraft across relevant categories through suitable third-party operators according to the size and requirements of the movement.

Can group charter operate to regional destinations?

Yes, subject to aircraft, airport and operational suitability.
