Putting together the comprehensive experience, operational proficiency, and the extensive infrastructure of Aircrafts, equipment and people renders Hellenic Imperial Airways best suited to offer its customers a One Stop Service Partner.
The Aircrafts are offered on a Full Charter basis or, more frequently, on an ACMI basis.
ACMI lease | Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance.
ACMI stands for Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and insurance. The lessor (Hellenic Imperial Airways) provides the aircraft, one or more complete crews - including technicians if necessary - all maintenance for the aircraft, and insurance for the aircraft as well as third party liability. We usually require a guaranteed minimum number of hours to be flown each month - which effectively means that the client is guaranteeing a minimum payment equal to the hourly cost multiplied by the guaranteed utilization - regardless of whether he reaches that utilization or not.

Wet Lease | Aircraft and Crew / to AOC holders only. A wet lease is the lease of an aircraft including its crew. So, in reality, it is an ACMI lease .
Dry Lease | Aircraft only / to AOC holders.
A dry lease is the lease of the aircraft only. In this case, we provide the aircraft and the lessee has to provide everything else. However, we need to make sure that the client is fully capable of operation the aircraft to our stringent standards, so we tend not to do this very often. Dry leased are normally charged at a fixed monthly rate, plus hourly charges for maintenance reserves. They are normally for periods of at least six months.
Wet and dry leases are only available to other airlines holding valid Air Operator's Certificates and the required route a civil aviation have to honor authorities-all other companies who have to charter in aircraft .
