ACE'22 enjoys record attendance
It may have rained a little in the morning but the atmosphere was relaxed and hands were extended, both to greet colleagues and for the ice creams being given away on the apron. ACE'22 was a big success.
Visitors were able to get on board all the aircraft in the exhibition.

The Air Charter Expo (ACE'22), held on Tuesday 27 September at London Biggin Hill airport in the UK, was attended by a record number of well over 1,000 delegates.

A full day of conference sessions took place alongside more than 90 exhibitors and 15 aircraft on the static display.

The programme featured key industry topics from the state of the industry and challenges in the air cargo and helicopter charter sector to presentations from sponsor Air bp on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and a discussion on single engine aircraft in the charter market.

The ACA also announced its partnership with 4Air, offering ACA members a carbon offsetting scheme.

The ACA chairman Kevin Ducksbury says: “ACE'22 was a great success, and we're delighted by the record levels of attendance. We are also pleased to have announced our partnership with 4Air, extending the sustainability opportunities available to our members.”

Next year, ACE'23 will take place on Tuesday, 12 September, 2023 at London Biggin Hill airport.
