Air Charter Service (ACS) said its Greater China offices have had a remarkable first nine months of the year, with both its Shanghai and Hong Kong offices having their best years ever in terms of charter numbers.


Justin Bowman, Air Charter Service's CEO said this year has seen the growth plans that the company put in place last year "really start to pay dividends."

 

"Our revenue across the three offices has grown, most noticeably in Hong Kong – by 18% year-on-year. Charter numbers have also grown across the region – with our Shanghai office up by an incredible 40% so far in 2024," he added.

 

Bowman noted that in 2024, ACS recognized the need to better target the second-largest economy in the world. As a result, the company decided to separate its other Asia-Pacific operations from the Greater China market..

 

"Our leadership team of James Royds-Jones and Wanny Wu have together helped develop those plans and have managed our team of nearly 50 people in the region in achieving them," he added.


James Royds-Jones, regional director for ACS Greater China, said since ACS opened its first Greater China operation 16 years ago in Hong Kong, the company has grown its presence substantially in that time to now include our two thriving Mainland China offices in Beijing and Shanghai.

Wanny Wu, deputy regional director and head of the Mainland China offices, noted that ACS' focus on building the strongest and most experienced team in Shanghai has worked well.
