Air Charters Europe (ACE), a division of Benelux business aviation company ASL Group, has taken delivery of its fourth Embraer ERJ. Following a positioning flight from Canada, the corporate class Embraer ERJ135 aircraft arrived in Antwerp to receive its final modifications before entering into service.

“Air Charters Europe offers a fleet of aircraft that have been especially selected for their efficiency and reliability in order to serve the European market for group travel and incentives,” says Benoit Duvivier, sales manager of ACE. “These ERJs have been converted to regional jets with modifications in order to offer an exclusive travel experience, surpassing by far the comfort that is currently offered by similar aircraft types operated by ‘traditional’ airlines. Air Charters Europe’s aircraft feature a ‘corporate’ cabin configuration with fewer seats than the original versions and without overhead bins. This means more head- and legroom and also improved setback pitch for passengers on board. Plastic features were removed and replaced with precious and high-quality materials such as ultra-soft leather, wood and marble. Extra soundproofing was installed all around the cabin, in order to further reduce noise levels in the cabin compared to a typical line flight.”

Besides ACE, ASL Group’s Fly Executive programme will also take advantage of this new delivery. ASL Fly Executive offers flights to Innsbruck in winter and Ibiza in summer. Furthermore, Art Basel, Mipim Cannes or holographic concerts in London are frequently offered as scheduled flight destinations with the ERJ fleet.

ACE’s latest ERJ135 can take up to 37 passengers on board, while its other two ERJ135s hold 30 passengers and its ERJ145 is capable of transporting 42 passengers. Equipped with Rolls-Royce engines, it allows fast, safe and long distance travels all over the world as well as covering short distances efficiently. Therefore, the addition of yet another ERJ135 is a fantastic expansion for ACE and ASL Group’s fleet.

“We are proud to announce an exciting milestone to kick off 2025, welcoming this fourth aircraft,” states marketing and administration manager Marlon Porreye. “This jet symbolises another step forward in our commitment to delivering premium, personalised air travel experiences.

“With 37 seats, the Embraer offers increased capacity, seven more seats than our sister aircraft, allowing us to serve larger groups while maintaining the exclusive comfort and tailored service we are known for. This aircraft features brand-new seating and a fully refurbished interior, combining elegance with functionality. Passengers can expect a serene and refined cabin environment designed for both relaxation and productivity.”

“At the heart of our success is our dedicated, hands-on team and the professional crew who strive every day to raise the bar. Their commitment allows us to confidently deliver on our promise of a private jet experience aboard a regional aircraft. We constantly challenge ourselves to evolve, improve, and innovate, ensuring that every flight with Air Charters Europe is better than the last.”
