ACS to Participate in HUSUM WindEnergy, Germany

Air Charter Service (ACS), one of the world’s leading providers of passenger and cargo charter flights, will present itself at the HUSUM WindEnergy 2012 fair. As an exclusive partner of the fair the globally active charter service provider presents its extensive range of services which is especially tailored to the needs of the offshore industry.

A flexible and direct accessibility is crucial for installation, operation and maintenance of offshore wind parks. Complex material and heavy goods transports have to be managed. Moreover, the transportation of crew members and specialists to the place of operation, especially dropping them off directly on top of the wind turbines, has to be ensured. Individual and just-in-time charter services in freight as well as passenger transportation are a fundamental component for efficient and smooth offshore wind park logistics.

At the booth fair participants get a thorough overview of the reliable and tailored logistics solutions of ACS.

“We are able to provide our clients with the adequate aircraft any time. Of course, we meet all standards to ensure a safe transport and, therefore, the guaranteed supply of the offshore wind parks also at adverse weather conditions,” highlights Stephan Blank, Director Cargo Air Charter Service Germany, adding: “HUSUM WindEnergy 2012 is the ideal platform for us to exchange with and further connect to the numerous industry representatives participating.”

As an exclusive partner of the fair ACS also offers a Shuttle-flight-service between the fairground of the HUSUM WindEnergy and Hamburg Airport.
