The Air Charter Association's annual excellence awards returned to London on 8 October, with Platoon Aviation taking executive operator of the year for the third time and Saxon Air reclaiming the helicopter title.

This year, the winners at the Air Charter Excellence Awards were determined from a fantastic shortlist of companies by a 100 per cent member voting process, following feedback from the ACA membership.

During July and August the operator achieved a 15 per cent YoY increase in flight time with passengers, the number of flights also went up by 15.7 per cent and enquiries increased by 26.4 per cent.
