Frequently asked questions

An aviation broker matches a client (business, individual, institution) with an aircraft operator holding an air operator certificate (AOC). The broker analyses the need, negotiates the contract, selects the aircraft and crew best suited and coordinates the entire mission. Air Basel acts as an independent broker for cargo, passenger, business aviation and medical evacuation.

An airline owns its own aircraft and holds an air operator certificate (AOC). A broker owns no aircraft — it accesses a network of vetted partner operators to propose the aircraft best suited to every mission, at better cost and with greater flexibility than a single operator’s fleet.

For passenger or VIP flights, allow 24 to 72 hours depending on the mission profile. For medical evacuation and AOG (Aircraft on Ground) parts, activation within a few hours is possible thanks to our network of operators on standby.

From Beechcraft 1900 to Boeing 737, including ATR 42/72 and Airbus A320neo: Air Basel selects the aircraft from its partner network depending on cargo, passenger count, range and runway requirements.

The price depends on aircraft type, distance, number of legs, services requested (VIP catering, medical equipment, cargo conditions) and notice period. Air Basel issues a tailored quote within 24 hours via the contact form.
