Supporting FSPs and Trip Support Companies Around the World; One Flight Plan at a Time

When you work behind the scenes in the aviation industry, people don’t always see the complexity of what you do. Flight Service Providers (FSPs) and trip support companies are a good example. They are the invisible link keeping things moving smoothly, often under time pressure and across multiple time zones.

At AIR SUPPORT, we have worked with FSPs of different sizes for decades, from niche providers to larger trip support companies, and one thing we have learned is that flexibility makes the difference.

Tailored Flight Log Layout

Whether handling a single ad-hoc flight or managing dispatch for a whole fleet, your flight planning system should match how you work. Not the other way around.

That’s why PPS Flight Planning allows flight service providers to tailor the flight log layout to suit individual client needs. As business requirements shift, the layout can be easily updated to reflect current operational demands without the need for complex workarounds or development.

This flexibility helps FSPs present information in a clear, professional format that aligns with their clients’ expectations and workflows, supporting both consistency and efficiency in day-to-day operations.

 

Pricing That Works for Every Operation

Some FSPs prefer flat-rate pricing, while others want pay-per-use. AIR SUPPORT supports both, and even a combination of the two. It all depends on what makes sense for your client base.

Under the pay-per-use arrangement, FSPs pay a monthly subscription fee combined with a price rate per flight plan. This approach minimizes implementation costs and ensures that running costs align with production levels. Volume discounts are available based on the number of flight plans filed monthly, providing cost advantages as the operation scales.

Alternatively, a flat-rate arrangement is ideal for aircraft operating on a more regular basis. This option offers a predictable cost structure, simplifying financial planning and providing stability for FSPs serving specific aircraft tails.

For maximum flexibility, operators can also combine the two models, applying each where it best fits. This way, you deliver value-added services while maintaining profitability, without being tied to a one-size-fits-all setup.

Customised Briefings

For many operators, the CrewBriefing tool is the face of your service. That is why AIR SUPPORT offer white-label options, allowing you to include your logo and maintain a consistent experience across your customer touchpoints. It’s a simple tweak, but it adds professionalism and brand cohesion, especially when managing multiple clients.

Free Access to Generic Aircraft Performance Data

Flight planning relies on accurate aircraft data, but building those performance files takes time. To help get started faster, AIR SUPPORT provides free access to an archive of regularly updated generic aircraft performance data. Maintained by aircraft specialists, this resource ensures that FSPs have access to reliable and up-to-date information when preparing flight plans. Whether onboarding a new customer or managing an unusual request, this saves time and gets you operational faster.

 

Designed Around Your Workflow

For FSPs and trip support companies supporting international operators or local charters, reliable flight plans are expected to be delivered, also under pressure. At AIR SUPPORT, we are here to make that task easier with tools that adapt to your needs, not the other way around.
