Flying a German ice hockey team for the IIHF World Championship

In May 2021, we were asked to fly a German ice hockey team to Latvia for the IIHF World Championship. The client had a limited budget, but desired a new aircraft to transport a group of 42 passengers and three tonnes of luggage.

Our team had a limited window to find a cost-effective solution that could accommodate the requested payload.

Our Solution

Route: Nuremberg > Riga

Aircraft: Airbus A220-300

We kept costs down by sourcing an Airbus A220-300 from an operator based in Latvia. The aircraft was the correct size for the requested payload and suited the client’s needs for a modern aircraft. Despite several logistical obstacles, including airline delays and language barriers, our brokers quickly and efficiently resolved every issue, meaning the client could focus on preparing for the tournament.

The Finer Details

Rapid Response: We came up with a viable solution within 24 hours of the client reaching out.

Unrivalled Experience: With over two decades worth of experience chartering sports teams at short notice, we knew exactly what was required to ensure the client arrived on time.

24/7 Service: We ensured we were on-call around the clock to keep the client fully updated on the progress of the charter.
