MEDIA INFORMATION, RATES & DATA, 2016 Targeted advertising for the ad hoc air charter business Dear air charter professional ‘Ad hoc’ perfectly describes anything happening only for a particular purpose, not planned before it happens. The nature of ad hoc business is that it is not regular. Thus in the world of ad hoc passenger charter, the unique challenge is continually to create individually tailored fl ight packages for a growing roster of clients. Brokers must manage any such opportunities fully, effi ciently and to a high standard. But they can’t do this on their own. Their success depends on a network of connections: access to aircraft of various specifi cations; price and time information; special services; handling arrangements; airport facilities. The list goes on. Every broker wants to ensure they have the most up-to-date information from aircraft operators, airports and handlers so that they can put together the best contracts for their clients. Things are constantly changing and being updated. Perhaps you have added a jet to your fl eet; extended the length of a runway; shaved minutes off handling times. But who’s to know? How do you get word out so that you can capitalise on these developments?
