Aviation Concierge Services
Crew & Passenger Trip Support
What Aviation Concierge Covers?
Aviation concierge is the coordination of premium ground-side and on-board services that complement the operational elements of a flight. While flight support covers the regulatory, logistical, and safety-critical aspects of a mission, concierge covers the experience dimensions — the quality of the catering, the promptness of the ground transport, the appropriateness of the hotel, and the handling of requests that fall outside the standard operational checklist.
In-Flight Catering
ASM coordinates in-flight catering through a global network of licensed, quality-assured catering providers at major airports worldwide. Whether the requirement is a simple crew meal or a multi-course menu for a private charter carrying senior executives, ASM ensures catering is prepared, delivered, documented, and loaded to the required standard.
- Premium catering partners at major airports worldwide
- Customised menus for crew and passenger dietary preferences
- Halal, kosher, vegan, and specialist medical dietary requirements accommodated
- Catering quality-checked and documented before loading
- Lead times: typically 24–48 hours; short-notice requests accommodated where suppliers allow
Ground Transportation
ASM arranges ground transportation for crews and passengers at destinations worldwide — airport transfers, hotel shuttles, multi-stop city programmes for longer layovers, and VIP vehicle arrangements. All transport providers are vetted and bookings are monitored for pick-up accuracy.
- Airport-hotel-airport transfers for crews and passengers
- Multi-city touring transport for extended layovers
- VIP and executive vehicle arrangements
- Coordination with the flight schedule for precise timing
Hotel Arrangements
Beyond crew HOTAC, ASM arranges hotel accommodation for passengers, VIP travellers, and accompanying parties on charter, private, and special mission flights. Appropriate properties are sourced at competitive rates, and the booking process is managed end-to-end.
Special Requests
ASM's concierge team manages requests outside the standard operational checklist: specific newspapers or publications, flowers, champagne, entertainment loading, event tickets, local tours, and destination arrangements. These are coordinated through ASM's network of local partners at key destinations globally.
VVIP & Government Coordination
For the highest-priority passenger movements, ASM coordinates the complete concierge package: advance airport meet-and-greet arrangements, customised ground programmes, enhanced security coordination, discrete and professional handling, and real-time communication with the travel team throughout the mission.
