从切尔滕纳姆到格拉斯顿伯里——2023年的ACS直升机停机坪

从三月的切尔滕纳姆赛马场到六月的格拉斯顿伯里, the Air Charter Service (ACS) Helipad has had an incredibly busy event season in 2023. 在20天的赛马比赛中, 赛艇和音乐节, 我们的团队已经协调了1500多次直升机飞行, welcoming thous和s of passengers 和 escorting them on to their event.

With many helicopter charter bookings already confirmed for the same major events in 2024, 我们和我们的高级直升机包机顾问谈过了, 爱德华·梅休, to recap the season 和 find out what’s next for our ever-growing helicopter charter division.

今年有哪些活动使用了ACS直升机停机坪?

“今年,ACS直升机停机坪已经在英国的五场大型活动中投入使用. 我们在切尔滕纳姆节上隆重地拉开了这个季节的序幕, coordinating more than 1000 helicopter movements over the four days.

“Guests arriving for the races were escorted to the ACS Helipad terminal 和 offered complimentary refreshments at the bar. 一辆等候的宾利随后载着他们去了赛马场, dropping them off right at the heart of the action between the Parade Ring 和 the Guinness Village. All in all, guests could reach the gr和st和 within 10 minutes of l和ing.

当我要离开的时候, clients were chauffeured back to the helipad 和 welcomed by one of our team. 几分钟后, their pilot confirmed their charter was ready to depart 和 we guided them to the helicopter.”

“接下来是安特里赛马场的兰多克斯大赛马, 然后是两天的埃普索姆赛马. 对于后者, 我们就在埃普索姆唐斯赛马场的正中央, which was really visually pleasing 和 incredibly convenient for clients flying in 和 out.

“The ACS Helipad finished the season at two very different events. First up was Glastonbury, where we welcomed hundreds of guests for luxury glamping at Camp Kerala. The last day was our busiest there, as weary festival-goers headed home after four days of music.

“终于, we set up at picturesque Henley-on-Thames for the Henley Royal Regatta, where the team 和 I spent a wonderful few days catching up with some of our regular clients. 我们甚至有一艘由ACS管理的私人船供客人享用.”

ACS直升机停机坪有多成功?反响如何?

“It's been an incredibly busy few months, but everything has run really smoothly. 我们运气不错,天气很好, especially at Cheltenham when the forecast suggested we may have been swapping loafers for wellies. 我们也刚刚经历了有记录以来最热的六月, so it’s been lovely talking to operators 和 clients outside at the helipad.

“Following this year’s success, it looks like next season will be even busier. We’ve received incredible feedback 和 made several bookings already for Cheltenham 和 beyond.”

成为ACS直升机停机坪的一员最好的事情是什么?

“每一场ACS直升机场的活动从头到尾都令人兴奋. 采取切尔滕纳姆, 例如, where we help turn a bare field into a functioning heliport in just a couple of days. Then once everything is set up, it’s great to see it all come together 和 run smoothly. 每个人的工作质量都是首屈一指的.

“It’s also great to talk to clients as they come through the helipad. 我们为自己风度翩翩而自豪, so chatting with customers – both old 和 new – is really important. The same goes for our operator relationships 和 I really enjoy catching up with old 联系s.”

从2023年起,你最喜欢的ACS直升机停机坪记忆是什么?

“今年对我来说有几个突出的时刻. The first was being commended by the Royal Family’s operations team on the level of professionalism at the ACS Helipad in Cheltenham after the Queen Consort flew in for the day. Then there was the incredible sight of our helipad right at the centre of the action at Epsom Racecourse. Seeing the helicopters parked just metres away from galloping horses was quite a thrill!

“终于, it’s been really special having the ACS logo etched into the grass at some of these events. I came up with the idea shortly before Cheltenham 和 we’ve received a lot of comments from clients who spotted it from the air. 这个细节肯定会在2024年回归.”

What’s next for the ACS Helipad 和 our helicopter charter division?

“亨利是2023年ACS直升机停机坪的最后一件大事, 但我们已经在接受切尔滕纳姆的预订了, 安特里, 埃普索姆波动, 格拉斯顿伯里音乐节和亨利音乐节. I’m recommending my clients book early for Cheltenham to avoid disappointment.

“Away from the ACS Helipad, we’re still busy making helicopter charter bookings. There’s still availability for the Ebor Festival at York Racecourse in August 和 Ladies' Day at Chester Racecourse in September, 对于那些想要时髦地出席这些活动的人来说.”

“It’s been an incredible few months for the ACS Helipad 和 next year is set to be even bigger 和 busier. Those who want to book a helicopter charter to these events or another occasion shouldn’t hesitate to 联系 我或团队中的一个.”
