The majority of African airports don’t have an FBO (Fixed Based Operation), and many African ground handling companies are governmentally owned and managed. While this implies many things, it predominantly means that services provided to business aviation and chartered aircraft in operation to Africa may lag behind the level of service operators are used to when landing in other parts of the world.
Aviation regulations in the African countries vary largely between themselves and the rest of the world. Additionally, the regulations are not clear or transparent in many countries in Africa. In fact, some countries impose unusual requirements like translating passports into the local language or even military approval prior to the issuance of civil approval.
It’s not always possible for the crew to obtain the visa upon arrival in certain African countries, especially depending upon their nationality. In addition, the vaccination requirements vary according to the various African countries’ regulations.
Fuel shortages are also experienced in some African airports from time to time depending on the economic and security circumstances. As you can imagine, these infrastructural and regulatory issues can make the planning and operation of your flight to Africa a difficult one.
Luckily, paradisejet has a special focus for flight support Africa, mostly due to the increasing difficulties that international aircraft operators are experiencing when operating their flights to Africa. paradisejet knows and clearly understands the regulations of all the African countries, making your trip simpler than it would be otherwise.
Moreover, paradisejet employs local professional and trained supervisors in many of the African airports where service shortcomings are known. Our supervisors coordinate between all the authorities and the service providers in the airport, including the civil aviation authority, airport authority, ground handling provider, fuel supplier, catering company, customs and immigration, among others, to make sure that all formalities and services are delivered on time and up to expected standards.
paradisejet supervisors facilitate and improve the experience of your passengers and crew while arriving to and departing from African airports.
