Priester gears up for awards dinner with two nominations
Priester Aviation is hoping that its 75 years of experience and stellar safety record will be crowned at the prestigious awards gala hosted by The Family Wealth Alliance, which serves families across North America.

Chicago-based Priester Aviation has been named as a finalist in two Best In Industry awards hosted by The Family Wealth Alliance, in the categories for 'outsource solution/provider' and 'the client experience'.

“The alliance is a trusted resource for the family office community, identifying businesses and services that can serve the particular needs of its clients,” says president and CEO Andy Priester. “To be included in this elite group of professional service companies is a tremendous honour.”

Priester specialises in aircraft management and private travel solutions. With nearly 75 years of experience, it holds an ARGUS Platinum rating, Wyvern Wingman, IS-BAO Stage III and Air Charter Safety Foundation certifications.

The winners of the Best In Industry awards will be presented at The Family Wealth Alliance's 15th Anniversary awards gala, held at Chicago's Union League Club on October 17.
