Aero-Charter Airlines plans to bring still more Citations to Ukraine
The Ukraine's ACR Aero-Charter Airlines plans to expand its seven-strong business aircraft fleet to nine with the addition of a Citation XLS+ and a CJ3 in the third quarter of 2011.

The Ukraine's ACR Aero-Charter Airlines plans to expand its seven-strong business aircraft fleet to nine with the addition of a Citation XLS+ and a CJ3 in the third quarter of 2011.

The company's Alexey Novak says: "Our business is growing well despite the world economic recession and we continue to enjoy demand from our clients for vip charter to a myriad of international destinations."

Aero-Charter Airlines acquired two CJ3s in July 2009 adding to its business aviation fleet of seven Yak-40s. "During the last six months of operation each CJ3 has achieved between 40 and 50 hours of aircraft operation per month," Novak adds.

"The aircraft were chosen because of their suitability for demand in our region. We took into account factors including range and the effective combination of flight hour costs and the very comfortable modern interior. The CJ3s are deployed on business and leisure trips within the Ukraine, CIS countries, Europe and the near East. Most of our clients are from the Ukraine."

The company, founded in 1997, says it is determined to preserve its market leading status in the Ukraine. "We plan to hold our position and increase our presence in the market which will help us to spread the scope and sphere of our business and increase our activity on foreign markets. The emphasis is on efficient development through painstaking management and the careful and accurate planning of the work process and time," Novak adds.

He says that the company's dynamic development and systematic expansion of the services range has earned it a good reputation as a reliable business partner. "Many charter brokers utilise our services. We do regular business with a number of them and keep them up-to-date with our 'empty leg' flight availability."
