About Air Cargo Associates, Inc.

Air Cargo Associates (ACA) was founded in New York in 1978. From small Lear jets and DC-6 type aircraft to the B-747 and the Russian built AN-124, ACA has long provided charter services to and from every continent in the world. Our list of clients ranges from U.S. to foreign government agencies, the largest multinational corporations to smaller service/niche market companies and freight forwarders to airlines. ACA is also one of the most active charter brokers serving the livestock industry. Transporting nearly 7,000 head of cattle each year, as well as exotics such as llamas and alpacas, ACA's clients trust the skill and quality of our expertise. As an aircraft charter broker, ACA maintains the flexibility to access the most appropriate aircraft for our clients' specific applications, whenever and wherever the requirement demands. The high volume of charter flights contracted by ACA allows occasional charter users to take advantage of our buying power, achieving the most competitive rates.

The cheapest rate is not always the cheapest charter. Since ACA is in the charter market full time, we know which carriers are reliable and which may give a great price. However, in the end, many low price carriers are unable to perform as promised. ACA's database of aircraft available for charter, the capacity of each aircraft and its operational capabilities, eliminates useless calls to carriers not suitable for certain needs. ACA's in-house charter quote computer program provides the capacity to give a price indication with your initial call, eliminating time on the phone with every airline. This program is very helpful in developing pricing for future project quotations or simply to determine feasibility

ACA maintains contracts with several carriers to provide charter activity on aircraft that are either committed to ACA on a long-term basis or simply available for brief periods of time. Contracts such as these give ACA and our clients the advantage of highly reliable aircraft when second best simply will not do. By maintaining relationships with the cargo airlines of the world, ACA performs with competitive and reliable rates whether for cost analysis purposes or a last minute charter requirement that is short on time.
