Air Charter Service (ACS), an internationally operating aircraft charter provider, has appointed Nick Harris as Airline Liaison Director for the Middle East and the Indian Subcontinent. This decision aims to further strengthen existing relationships with airlines in the region.
Dan Morgan-Evans, Cargo Director of ACS, stated that Harris has been with the company for nearly 20 years. He began his career in 2006 at the London headquarters and moved to Dubai in 2009. Five years later, he took on the role of Cargo Director for the region, a position he still holds today. In his new role, Harris will focus on intensifying relationships with local airlines.
ACS collaborates with thousands of airlines worldwide and organized over 35,000 flights in the past year. The company acts both as a supplier and a customer, supporting logistical requirements and assisting in AOG situations (Aircraft on Ground). Morgan-Evans emphasized the importance of having a central point of contact for developing these relationships in the region.
The multitude of airlines in the Middle East and the Indian Subcontinent presents a challenge. One goal of Harris’s new role is to assist these operators with specific logistical needs and in AOG situations. This includes, among other things, passenger charters for urgent crew movements, leasing replacement aircraft, and transporting AOG parts, from complete engines to small spare parts. Harris will work with all three main departments of ACS: Cargo, Private Jets, and Group Charters, with a particular focus on time-sensitive offerings such as Onboard Courier (OBC) and Next Flight Out (NFO).
Harris commented on his new position: „I am very excited to begin this new chapter in my career at ACS. I have been working with airlines in the region for over 15 years and have already built excellent partnerships and friendships. This role aims to further strengthen those and become the first point of contact for logistical or emergency situations they may face.“
