The son of a pilot, Chris Leach has aviation in his DNA. He started with Saturn Airways in the 1970s and soon learned the value and importance of personal service and from that valuable nugget was born the idea for his own charter travel company.
In 1990, from a basement in the UK town of Kingston Upon Thames, Chris Leach set about creating Air Charter Service (ACS) with a focus on providing first-rate service and excellent customer relations. Chris believed that if you go the extra mile for customers, they will always come back, a premise that is at the heart of the company today.
Whether we are providing VIP travel for one person or a whole team, or transporting heavy freight, we promise first-class personal service.
From its humble beginnings, Air Charter Service now has offices around the globe, spanning North America, South America, Europe, Africa, CIS, the Middle East and Asia. We work with thousands of clients and organize almost 7,500 charter flights a year.
Our size may have changed, but our commitment to customer service never wavers and is the bedrock of the business.
