Air Charter Service’s (ACS) business in Southeast Asia has seen “incredible growth” in the first nine months of 2025, arranging 61% more charters than the same period last year, according to the company. Asia in general, according to ACS, has seen strong growth in the private charter market over the first nine months of the year, outperforming the global average, based on WingX figures. {WingX is an aviation intelligence data provider.)
Brendan Toomey, ACS Singapore’s CEO, said his office saw revenues soar 155% over the first nine months of last year. The economic climate of the region, and Singapore in particular, has played its part in the company’s success, said Toomey. With many companies relocating their regional headquarters out of Hong Kong in recent years, he said, Singapore has benefited, emerging as one of the top choices for several global corporations.
The country’s growth, said Toomey, is not only in the business world, but is also one of Asia’s main aviation hubs — the fourth busiest airport in the world for international passengers and an extremely busy one for cargo shipments.
By the end of this year, said Toomey, ACS is set to have record levels both of charter numbers and revenue, the best since the Singapore office opened in 2020. “It’s an exciting time for the office,” said Toomey. “We have an amazing group here, and we are looking to add new members to the team over the coming months to cope with our growth in business.”
