Air Charter

Chartering is to your schedule

No waiting in airline terminals - No unnecessary overnight stays

Your time is valuable. To you, to your customers, and to your stockholders. Its far more useful for you to be attending an important meeting than to be sitting in a car travelling or waiting at an airline terminal for your flight to board.

Charter is the answer. Chartering one of Lilydale's comfortable cabin-class aircraft will save you time and provides flexibility, efficiency, privacy, security and comfort. Moreover it is not expensive, particularly if you need to bring along support staff or wish to avoid overnighting.

Executive charter is easy

Chartering an aircraft from Lilydale is easy. One phone call and we can be airbourne within the hour to where you need to go.

Not only can we fly to Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide or Hobart in two hours, but we reach to the hundreds of small airstrips in between not serviced by scheduled flights. This can often save you an
expensive hire car or taxi. Common destinations include:

Lilydale lies within 45 minutes drive of nearly all of Melbourne's eastern suburbs as well as being in the opposite direction to most peak-hour traffic!
