ACC Aviation Delivers Strong Q2 2026 Results

ACC Aviation’s air cargo charter division delivered strong Q2 2026 results, achieving a profitable first full quarter under SVP of Cargo Jack Burt, following the completion of multiple complex Boeing 747-400F charter missions across three continents. The division managed time-critical cargo movements for key sectors, including oil and gas, aerospace and defence, transporting urgent drilling equipment, high-value manufacturing components and security-sensitive cargo between North America, Europe, the Middle East and Canada. ACC Aviation is expanding its global cargo charter capabilities, supported by a growing freighter operator network and streamlined charter processes, with future growth focused on energy, defence, aerospace, pharmaceuticals and humanitarian logistics markets. ACC Aviation, the international aviation consultancy and charter specialist, today reported strong second-quarter results for its air cargo charter division, marking a profitable first full quarter under dedicated cargo leadership since Jack Burt’s appointment as SVP of Cargo in April. Over the course of Q2 2026, ACC Aviation coordinated a series of large-scale Boeing 747-400F widebody charter missions spanning three continents, executing complex, time-critical operations for clients in oil and gas, aerospace, and defense sectors. The results combined disciplined cost management with efficient deal structures, which made a positive contribution to ACC Aviation’s overall group performance, validating the company’s investment in building a dedicated cargo charter capability. Widebody Missions Spanning Three Continents Among the quarter’s landmark operations: Houston, TX → Saudi Arabia: Urgent oilwell drilling supplies and critical downhole equipment, mobilized for active field operations, aboard a Boeing 747-400F. Europe → Canada: High-value aerospace manufacturing components and precision systems requiring specialized handling and temperature-controlled transport. United States → Europe: Defense-related cargo and priority military support equipment, moved under stringent security and compliance protocols. Each mission required close coordination with aircraft operators, ground handling agents, customs authorities, and end-clients across multiple time zones, and regulatory jurisdictions which were delivered on time, on specification, and in full. According to Burt, recent assignments have highlighted non-negotiable cargo urgency, security and precision which are indicative of the added value and peace of mind that ACC Aviation brings to customers’ cargo operations. “When a client calls us with an urgent mission, whether it’s drilling equipment headed to an active oilfield in the Middle East or sensitive defense cargo bound for Europe, they need absolute confidence in execution,” said Jack Burt, SVP of Cargo, ACC Aviation. “This quarter, our team delivered that confidence, backed by the strength of our operator network and the discipline of our processes.” Built on a World-Class Operator Network Underpinning the quarter’s results is the operational foundation ACC Aviation has built in recent months: a proprietary, industry-leading database of certified freighter operators spanning every payload category and region, paired with a streamlined quotation process engineered for urgent, time-critical charters. “These outcomes reflect the investment ACC Aviation has made in building a specialized cargo charter capability with the right people, the right processes, and the right partnerships,” said Phil Mathews, Chief Executive Officer, ACC Aviation. “Beyond the Americas, our cargo charter capabilities position us to compete for and win missions across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. As demand for reliable charter solutions grows worldwide, ACC is now well-placed to extend its reach in the global air cargo charter market.” Looking Ahead Building on this quarter’s momentum, ACC Aviation will continue to expand its proprietary operator database and cargo sector expertise, with a focus on high-growth verticals including energy, defense, aerospace, pharmaceuticals, and humanitarian logistics. The Americas, including Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central & South America, remains a priority growth region, leveraging ACC Aviation’s existing regional relationships and hub infrastructure in Fort Lauderdale and London. The division also plans for continued capability development across Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Africa.
