Streamline Ops
(+7.095.363.6565, www.streamline-ops.com) also has
expertise facilitating business travelers. The company is well connected at
regional airports throughout Europe and advises small commercial carriers on
conducting charters outside the country. Streamline Ops is also a charter
business itself, operating Challengers, Citations and Hawkers, and it has a
maintenance facility for those aircraft. It can find reliable mechanics for most
other types of aircraft, including Gulfstream Vs.
Of course, you can always
contact international handlers, such as Baseops International (800.333.3563),
Universal (800.231.5600) or Air Routing International (713.430.7200). However,
they will probably outsource your business to either FERAS or Streamline Ops,
and then charge a premium for it.
While ground handlers can find and
contract security professionals to guard an airplane or passenger, or to sweep
an aircraft for explosives or electronic devices before passengers board, most
companies prefer to hire a company inside the United States (such as Air
Security International, 713.430.7300) to assess security hazards. A domestic
security firm can either send security personnel ahead of the aircraft or
contract local security professionals.
