Aircraft Dry- /Wet-lease

Skylark Aviation Expert specialist in ‘Wet-lease’ and ‘Dry-lease’ solutions

As an airline, the proper management of your aircraft fleet is the focal point of your operations. Having enough aircraft units available at all times to serve your flight schedule and deliver on customer commitment is your core mission. It is crucial to the success of your development projects.

To achieve this goal, several challenges await you. For instance, manage the strong seasonal cyclicality that affects both the leisure and business segments.

Recent trends have shown that most scheduled airline companies pursue the objective of intensive use of their human resources and aeronautical assets. So, you must deal with the challenge of allocating your resources according to the maintenance requirements and your commercial strategy. Also, your operational efficiency depends on several financial considerations, such as a high ratio of asset return and sound cash management.

With our wet-lease (ACMI) and dry-lease solutions, Skylark Aviation Expert helps you optimize your fleet management and adapt it to your strategy. There are several possible scenarios:

  • You are facing a major technical issue (AOG) on one of your aircraft and you urgently need an ACMI type charter solution in order to proceed as quickly as possible with your flight schedule. Your reputation is at stake and you will be judged on your reactivity.
  • You need to increase your transport capacity during periods of peak activity of various durations. To protect your market share, a temporary increase in your fleet, with no risk and a low financial commitment will be your priority.
  • You don’t operate an aircraft type which seating capacity or performance are relevant to address business opportunities your analysts have identified. Before you make the decision of opening new route(s), test with us this low-risk option.
  • For a long-term need (generally beyond 12 months) of replacement or increase of available seat capacity without the financial implications of the asset, check out our dry-lease solutions.

In 2018 and 2019, Skylark Aviation Expert arranged several regional aircraft wet-lease agreements for a leading Western European scheduled airline. These multi-year contracts were part of the customer’s approach to maintain a commercial and network footprint on certain destinations and routes. This was no longer possible using internal resources, due to a new fleet strategy to reduce the number of aircraft types in operation. Consequently, unnecessary costs related to the training of flight crews and technical staff, maintenance purchases, etc. were eliminated. And this, while also benefiting from the flexibility of a supplier with a simplified organization, optimized in order to provide cost-efficient wet-lease services.
