Sunny Skies Above the Clouds for San Juan, Orlando, Singapore and New Orleans

Our team flew out to San Juan, Puerto Rico for this year’s annual International Operators Conference (IOC) in February. Sessions included a global review of the evolving regulatory landscape, best practices, mental health and alertness management for long-haul aviators and expert advice. “An excellent variety of speakers again this year for corporate pilots and flight departments that regularly fly internationally, says Paul Wyatt, AC-U-KWIK North American Editor. “Subjects that delve into flight planning, dealing with the complex bureaucracy of flying all over the world, new aircraft and avionics, and even pilot well-being and how to beat fatigue. It’s all covered!”

Excursions off the show floor brought visitors to the famous Castillo San Felipe Del Morro, where you can experience spectacular Caribbean sunsets if the stars align. The old town features fabulous Latin-inspired restaurants and an array of vagabond cats roaming the streets. And not to forget, El Yunque National Forest in Puerto Rico is the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System. Don’t miss out on this wonderful ecosystem or one of the bioluminescent bays!

Another warm destination welcomed our team to the one-day NBAA Regional Forum in Orlando, Florida. Shout-out to Jack Lambert and the FlyHouse team! Check out the expanded fleet of long-range jets for your next flight.

Our team is also exhibiting at Singapore’s BAAfex in March. Business Aviation Asia Forum & Expo (BAAFEx 2025) is being organized by Experia Events, the same company behind the Singapore Airshow, at Changi Exhibition Center (CEC) and promises to be a pivotal gathering for industry leaders, aviation enthusiasts, and business professionals from around the globe. The Expo will showcase the latest advancements, technologies, and innovations in the business aviation sector, with a focus on sustainability, efficiency, and cutting-edge design. Air Charter Guide’s Michele Markarian is this week meeting with business aviation leaders from around the world at this wonderful new venue. Greetings from the team and our esteemed aviation expert and friend Christopher Klüfer from BACC - Business Aviation Centre Cologne GmbH!
