Which operations should confirm eligibility at Le Bourget?

Le Bourget is business-aviation focused, but suitability still depends on aircraft, operator, flight purpose, schedule and current airport rules. Confirm airport acceptance and every required permission before selling or committing the movement.

ASM’s flight support team tracks regulatory, airport and supplier confirmations as one coordinated plan.

Permits, slots and schedule changes at LBG

Requirements depend on operator status, traffic rights, aircraft, route and flight purpose. Slots, PPR, landing permission and airport acceptance are separate controls. ASM coordinates applicable requests while authorities and the airport retain approval.

Review aircraft, routing or timing changes through ASM flight permit support before revising only the handler or passenger schedule.

Ground handling, parking and CIQ

Define ramp handling, passenger and crew processing, baggage, equipment, water and lavatory service, catering, transport and any special assistance. Confirm capability for the aircraft and schedule.

Parking is not confirmed by a permit or slot. State whether the aircraft will turn, remain overnight or reposition, and keep an alternative plan during peak periods. ASM can coordinate ground handling support against the approved movement.

Fuel planning and operational readiness

Request fuel with the aircraft registration, type, operator, date, uplift volume, fuel grade and payment requirements. Reconfirm uplift after material schedule or parking changes. ASM coordinates aviation fuel services, subject to supplier acceptance and airport procedures.

Paris events, parking pressure and alternatives

Trade shows, diplomatic activity, sporting events and holidays can constrain stands, handlers, hotels and transport. If parking or timing is unavailable, assess a suitable Paris-area alternative as a separate operation with its own slots, acceptance, handling, fuel and transfer plan.

What should a Le Bourget passenger handover contain?

Request the exact handling facility name, passenger meeting point and local contact before issuing arrival instructions. Ensure the driver and passenger representative have the same details. “Le Bourget Airport” alone is not a complete pickup brief; obtain the location confirmed by the appointed handler for the movement.

For delegations or groups travelling to different Paris addresses, allocate passengers and luggage to each vehicle and identify one person authorised to change the arrangements. ASM’s concierge services can coordinate those requests, including waiting allowances, additional stops and return pickup instructions. Share personal details only with the parties that need them to deliver the service.

How should an extended Paris stay affect crew bookings?

Supply the planned room-access window and next reporting or pickup requirement from the operator’s schedule. Ask the hotel to confirm the requested stay and extension terms, rather than assuming a room can be retained if meetings or departure plans move.

With crew hotel and transfer coordination, keep the booking reference, cancellation deadline, included services and transport arrangements together. If the flight moves to another airport, have the operator review the revised ground journey and accommodation plan before confirming changes. Passenger convenience and crew scheduling may require different arrangements.

What should operators send ASM?

• Operator and aircraft details, registration and MTOW
• Complete routing, schedule and purpose of flight
• Passenger, crew and cargo information where required
• Requested handling, parking, fuel, transport and catering
• Any dangerous goods, special assistance or protocol requirements
• Preferred alternatives and operational contact details

Frequently asked questions

Does every flight to LBG require a landing permit?

Not necessarily. Requirements vary by operator, nationality, traffic rights, aircraft and flight purpose. ASM checks the applicable authority process for the specific mission.

Are slots or PPR required at LBG?

They may be required depending on the operation and current airport procedures. Treat a slot, PPR, permit and handling confirmation as separate approvals unless the relevant authority states otherwise.

Does a slot guarantee parking?

No. Parking and handling must be confirmed independently for the aircraft, schedule and requested ground time.

How early should a request be submitted?

As early as practical, particularly during events, holidays or seasonal peaks. Actual lead time depends on the authority, airport and services requested.

Can ASM arrange fuel at LBG?

ASM can coordinate Jet A-1 supply subject to supplier acceptance, airport procedures, schedule and commercial confirmation.

What happens when the schedule changes?

Send the revised times and routing immediately. ASM will identify which permits, slots, PPR, handling, parking, fuel and crew services require amendment or reconfirmation.

Is ASM available outside local business hours?

Yes. ASM’s operations team provides 24/7 coordination, while individual services remain subject to authority, airport and supplier availability.

Request LBG flight support

Send the aircraft, routing, schedule, purpose, estimated fuel uplift and required services to sales@asm.aero. ASM will review the operational requirements and can quote fuel supply through local partners separately from local handling and permissions. Passengers arranging the aircraft can start with the Paris private charter guide; LBG access and aircraft availability require trip-specific confirmation.
