When an aircraft is grounded, getting the required parts to the right place quickly is critical. But no two Aircraft on Ground (AOG) situations are exactly alike, and the fastest solution isn’t always the most obvious one.
More Than Just the Next Flight
Depending on the shipment, destination, and urgency, several options may be available:
- On Board Courier (OBC): An accompanying courier carries the shipment personally, offering a direct and time-sensitive solution.
- Dedicated Transport: A vehicle can be arranged to move critical components directly to their destination.
- Next Available Flight: When schedules and connections align, commercial air freight may provide the right balance of speed and practicality.
- Tailored Solutions: Some situations require a combination of transport methods and carefully coordinated logistics.
Making the Right Call
Choosing the right option means weighing urgency, routing, availability, and the specific needs of each operation. It takes experience, global coordination, and the ability to act decisively when plans change.
At ETA LOGISTICS, we understand that AOG support is about more than moving a shipment. It’s about finding the right solution for the situation and keeping our customers informed at every step.
