Well done

At 9am on this day October 1st,1990, a significant moment unfolded as Patrick Hampton, Tracey Deakin and I launched Le Bas International AIR CHARTER WORLDWIDE from the back office of Le Bas Limousines, established two years earlier on Oct 1,1988. Since our inaugural milestone, we've propelled forward with our first booked charter being an AOG, swiftly followed by private jet and commercial charters. Through many industry changes and challenges over the years, our dedicated team of aviation professionals has been the cornerstone of our success. The aviation landscape has evolved, and those embracing change have thrived. Today, we stand stronger than ever, set on a growth trajectory that promises remarkable opportunities for our expanding team. Exciting times lie ahead for our company, with the upcoming establishment of our UK team, and plans for further expansion into mainland EU, UAE, and Asia. We are poised to capitalize on the expanding global market and anticipate continued growth and market dominance. Stay tuned for what lies ahead! 🌟 Pete #AviationIndustry #GlobalExpansion #TeamSuccess

Today marks the first year anniversary of the new Kansas City International (KCI) Airport terminal. Thanks to Patrick Klein, I got to fulfill my Airport DREAM in a Big Way just before the Grand Opening of the new terminal last February. This VIDEO explains it all. P.S. I can’t figure out how to upload more than one video, so I’ll add the videos that complete my Airport Story in separate posts. #airports #airportlife #airportservices #airportsafety #airport #airportoperations #airportjobs #airportmanagement #southwestairlines #americanairlines #deltaairlines #kansascity

An #altiport is an aerodrome for small #airplanes and #helicopters, situated on or within mountainous terrain. Altiports are generally characterized by having a #runway with an atypical slope to fit in the local topography. Ultimately, this slope helps #aircraft decelerating when landing and assists acceleration during takeoff. High altitude results in less lift available to aircraft wings, which requires aircraft to achieve higher speed at #takeoff and #landing. Such airfields with unusual physical characteristics are frequent in regions such as the French Alps, Himalayan regions, as well as Pacific islands. #Courchevel Altiport. Extremely challenging and demanding operations. #Pilatus #PC12 is one of the best aircraft to fly here.

Don't miss out on our latest thought leadership report on disruption in aviation! As leader of this project, I feel proud to have helped uncover such meaningful insights for the travel industry and beyond.

Due to the fact that demand for air travel has not fully recovered on certain regional routes after the pandemic, Austrian Airlines faces new challenges. Particularly, the slow recovery of business travel demand results in a lower demand level, necessitating adjusted capacity structures for economically viable operations. ✈️ Routes such as Vienna to Klagenfurt or Košice are neither economically nor operationally ideal for Austrian Airlines current fleet. These routes will now be served by BRA - Braathens Regional Airlines through wet lease. This means that aircraft and crews will be provided by the partner airline. On board, passengers can expect the familiar Austrian Airlines catering product, and both Business and Economy Class seats will be offered. 🥗🥖 The flights will be operated with two ATR propeller aircraft, which, due to their lower capacity, are more efficient for the respective routes, emit less CO2, and provide the appropriate seat volume for the markets served, with 72 seats. We are happy to have found a dedicated partner in BRA - Braathens Regional Airlines in this challenging segment! 👏

🛩️ Industry leaders told us they are not satisfied with the industry’s overall operational performance with 96% of airports saying disruption results in additional costs for their airport.         Improving the industry’s coordination is essential for improving operational resilience and mitigating disruption.      What are the top barriers to disruption management according to Airport leaders?

#ISTATAmericas’s first day provided insights into the challenges and opportunities facing North American carriers. JetBlue’s Ursula Hurley elaborated on the A321 XLR’s success, which helped the airline expand transatlantic flights to Europe over the summer and would be redeployed domestically off-season. JetBlue continues to see strong demand for premium leisure travel. Breeze Airways™’ Tom Doxey shed light on how the airline could tap its A220 fleet to evaluate options to choose to serve unmet need at 120 U.S. airports that lost air service over the last several years. Alaska Airlines’ Constance von Muehlen spoke about the great potential of the merger with Hawaiian Airlines, offering international expansion opportunities thanks to access to Hawaiin’s widebody aircraft. Sun Country Airlines’ Dave Davis spoke about the company’s business model around cargo, charter and passengers. #aircraftleasing #aviation #ISTATevent #theleaseworksway #Austin
