The Air Charter Association in partnership with Business Air News, hosted the annual Air Charter Expo on Tuesday 10 September 2024 at London Biggin Hill Airport. With close to 100 exhibitors and more than 1,500 delegates in attendance, ACE’24 has surpassed last year’s attendance, to be a record turnout and the largest Air Charter Expo to date. 

There was a fantastic selection of aircraft on the static display including the all-new Dassault Falcon 6X – exhibited in the UK for the first time – as well as a Gulfstream 700 from Qatar Executive. The ACA is committed to its sustainability goals and worked with partner 4AIR to calculate and offset the CO2e footprint of the event, including the movements of the display aircraft. SAF was also available onsite to all aircraft exhibitors.

The event featured an engaging conference programme with sessions covering industry challenges, sustainability and innovation, how to encourage young talent to join the industry and the right way to promote the value that private air charter provides. 

The ACA is grateful to all ACE’24 sponsors: Air bp, Dassault Aviation, Qatar Executive, X-Flite, XLR Executive Jet Centres, Close Brothers, Apogee, Elit Avia and Drivania Chauffeurs, as well as all exhibitors, speakers and members for their ongoing support of the show.

Kevin Ducksbury, chair of The Air Charter Association, commented: “It was fantastic to build upon the success of last year’s Air Charter Expo with another record number of exhibitors and attendees, firmly cementing ACE as one of the best industry networking events of the year. The ACA has members spanning 59 countries globally, and we were delighted to welcome familiar and new faces to the event.”

Robert Walters, commercial director, London Biggin Hill Airport says: “The Air Charter Expo has been another phenomenal success bringing the global business aviation charter sector together in the UK. With a wide range of international exhibitors, an impressive static aircraft display and valuable conference sessions, this record-breaking event once again showcased the best the industry has to offer. London Biggin Hill Airport is proud to be the home of ACE and we look forward to welcoming everyone back for ACE 2025 on 9th September."
