  • In Charter and Wet Lease Agreements, the Operator retains full operational control and is exclusively responsible for flight safety, crew performance, maintenance, insurance, and compliance with applicable aviation regulations.

  • Comply with customs, immigration, and security rules,
  • Obtain necessary permits, visas, and authorizations,
  • Ensure appropriate use of the aircraft under a dry lease,
  • Indemnify the Broker and Operator for damages caused by negligence, misconduct, or failure to comply with applicable laws.

6. Booking, Payment, Cancellation

A booking is confirmed only upon written acceptance by the Broker and receipt of required deposit or payment. All fees, taxes, surcharges, airport charges, ground handling, de-icing, catering, fuel supplements, and other expenses are borne by the Client. Payments must be made according to the terms agreed in the Charter Contract. Late payments may lead to cancellation.

Cancellation by the Operator may entitle the Charterer to a refund less costs incurred. Cancellation by the Charterer may entitle the Broker and/or the Operator to a fee calculated as follows:

  • Cancellation up to 14 days prior to departure: 20% of the Price
  • Cancellation between 13 and 2 days prior to departure: 50% of the Price
  • Cancellation 48h prior to departure: 90% of the Price

7. Wet Lease and Dry Lease Specific Conditions

  • Under a Wet Lease, the Operator is deemed the performing air carrier for all legal and regulatory purposes.
  • Under a Dry Lease, the Client (as lessee) is deemed the operator of the aircraft and assumes all associated obligations, including but not limited to crew employment, insurance, maintenance, safety oversight, and compliance with national and international aviation law.

The Broker assumes no liability under either regime, acting strictly as an intermediary.

8. Liability, Indemnity and Insurance

Any event such as war, warlike events, infringements of a country’s neutrality, insurrection, civil war, civil unrest, riots, sabotage, strikes, blockades or lockouts or other force majeure of any nature or any other factors over which the Broker and the Operator have no control may justify suspension, redirection or cancellation of the Flight.
