Air Charter Service has opened a new office in Dublin, the company's first in Ireland.

Chief executive Justin Bowman comments: “Ireland has always been on our list of where we wanted an office. In fact, it was at a company conference in Ireland more than 20 years ago that our chairman, Chris Leach, first laid out his global expansion plans for ACS to the rest of the team. Business aviation in Ireland has been on an upward trajectory for some time now, and this move will help us to better serve our existing customers in the country and to grow our client base further. We are really excited to see the opportunities that ACS Ireland creates for the business going forward. 
“Heading up the office is the hugely experienced Alex Sadler, who joined ACS more than 11 years ago in our London headquarters. Most recently he successfully opened and ran our office at Gatwick airport, and he is looking forward to growing a team of aircraft charter experts in Ireland.”
Sadler adds: “The office is located in the centre of Dublin on St Stephen’s Green, which is home to several other aviation companies. We've been working towards the office opening for months now and I’m excited to finally get started here, as there is a huge potential to grow our customer base in Ireland.”
