London – 19 July 2018: This year’s Air Charter Expo (ACE18) has already achieved record exhibitor numbers, as organisers prepare to bring the must-attend event back to London Biggin Hill Airport on Tuesday 11th September.

ACE is the only international event that recognises the pivotal role charter brokers and operators play in driving the business aviation industry globally. It is a partnership between the publishers of Charter Broker magazine and BACA The Air Charter Association. The members of BACA turnover an estimated £4.2bn per annum, employing over 6,000 staff.

So far this year, exhibitor numbers have reached 60, a 25% increase on 2017’s event. Alongside the exhibition, the event will include an extensive lineup of professional training programmes that will appeal to all members of the air charter trade, from junior brokers to senior management.

Andy Patsalides, marketing manager, London Biggin Hill Airport, says: “The growth of ACE has coincided with our expansion here at London Biggin Hill Airport, meaning we have more capacity than ever before to present the latest innovations in air charter to the industry.

“This year’s static display will be a must-see for charter brokers, who will enjoy first-hand experience of the newest aircraft to recommend to their customers, such as the stunning Dassault Falcon 8X. There will also be plentiful opportunities to network – we anticipate ACE18 will far surpass the success of 2017’s event, which saw more than 700 attendees enjoy a varied programme of presentations, talks and seminars at the airport.”

Full event information is available at www.aircharterexpo.com where visitors wishing to attend can register. Entry to ACE18 is free of charge.
