Veteran private air charter executive, Tige P. Osborne, today officially announced the launch of Air Éclat International, Inc., 24-hour, world-class provider of procured, on-demand private air charter services. In service since April 2015, the company has completed its first successful quarter of operation.

With access to more than 30 types of aircraft, from turboprop and light jets to midsize and supersize jets, up to Boeing 747s, Air Éclat (āˈklä) – which translates to Confidence, Brilliance and Panache – is now in service with a database of more than 5,500 private aircraft worldwide. The company offers premier international services, including complimentary advisory service, global booking, and access to private and secure terminal facilities. A Wyvern-Certified Broker, Air Éclat specializes in corporate executive travel, the entertainment and sports industries, as well the incentive group travel market.

“I've spent more than two decades in private aviation with some of the industry's leading companies, and I couldn't be more thrilled to take off on my own with Air Éclat,” said Osborne. “I started Air Éclat with a singular focus in mind: to create unforgettable private air charter service with unparalleled customer service.”

Focused on service, safety and high standards, Air Éclat charter operators and employees must pass several screenings, including an EKG, random drug and alcohol screenings, as well as hold an FAA first class medical certificate. Its aircraft maintenance policies will be among the strongest and strictest in the industry, with its technicians subject to complete approved factory training that must also operate with a FAA-issued repair station license.

With its competitive pricing and personal flight services, Air Éclat provides tailored, hassle-free travel experiences for corporations and individual clients.

Adds Osborne, “Air Éclat's wheels are up and we're prepared to do everything we can to give our clients the white glove service they demand and deserve.
