Albion welcomes clients from around the world
The Albion Aviation Group has been busy offering its courses to aviation professionals who have been impacted negatively by the pandemic, including groups of pilots who are looking to broaden their skillset after job losses.
Lewis King is looking to raise the bar for private jet broking.

The Albion Aviation Group, a charter brokerage with offices in the UK and UAE, is increasing its offering of online professional courses in private jet charter broker training. It is one of the only institutes globally to offer professional broker training in private jets and cargo, with courses designed to provide a complete A-Z guide in aircraft chartering.

The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to a surge in demand among the business aviation community, as companies and individuals have become more aware of the benefits of charter, but don't necessarily have the knowledge of skillset required to carry it out.

Albion owner Lewis King says: “We have seen a significant uptake in our professional courses and now have a global footprint of clients in Australia, China, the Middle East, Europe and the US. Our sole aim remains to raise industry standards in the charter market, underpinned by ethical and compliant business practices.”

Albion has also been busy offering its courses to aviation professionals who have been impacted negatively by the pandemic, including groups of pilots. One recently qualified ATPL pilot says: “Having recently lost my job as a pilot due to the pandemic, I took the masterclass in private jet charter brokering to help broaden my knowledge and skillset in the aviation industry.”

Albion continues to offer discounted rates to all aviation professionals for its courses. Aside from its training, the company is in the early stages of working with major industry organisations to pioneer industry regulation and broker licensing, in what it says remains an unregulated sector of the aviation industry.
