World Wide Presence TAG Aviation, Europe Operating from bases in Switzerland, UK and Spain, TAG Aviation Europe is at the forefront of the private and business aviation industry, with unparalleled expertise in aircraft charter, management, maintenance, FBO/Handling, and crew training. From the largest corporations to private individuals, more than 100 owners put their trust in our aircraft management operation, and we run Europe s largest charter fleet. On the maintenance side, we boast two of the biggest European aircraft maintenance centres at Geneva and Farnborough, representing many major aircraft manufacturers. Our FBOs are continually voted the highest rated facilities in the world. TAG Aviation, Middle-East In December 2010, TAG Aviation Middle East obtained an air operator s certificate (AOC) from the Kingdom of Bahrain and began its operations there, providing air charter and line maintenance. The kingdom s open skies approach to civil air transportation and its gateway position to the Gulf region make it the ideal hub from which to meet the growing demand for private jet travel in the Middle East. TAG Aviation, Asia In 2006, TAG Aviation expanded into the Asian market with the opening of a subsidiary based in Hong Kong. From there, we now provide aircraft management, charter and maintenance services throughout the Asia-Pacific region. TAG Aviation Asia offers all the benefits of centralised aircraft operations support and local service in the Far East, along with the same bespoke solutions and high standards of personal attention enjoyed by the company s European clientele.

Our Charter Services Call and Fly Call & Fly is the ideal solution if you are an occasional flyer who wants to book on a trip-by-trip basis. This is a simple, flexible and transparent option and, unlike fractional ownership or jet cards, there are no long term commitments or restrictions. TAG Aviation operates one of the largest and most diverse fleets of business jets and can provide truly global solutions, thanks to our extensive network of partners. As no two trips are alike, our Charter Services team will help you select the size and category of jet that are right for each journey, and then look after everything so that you can enjoy complete peace of mind. TAG Account Our TAG Account is tailored to meet the needs of business jet charter clients who have frequent and predictable travel needs. To facilitate confirmation of your flights, a TAG Account requires a deposit, but unlike similar programmes, all deposits are refundable and there are no expiry dates. Because you are unique, your Charter Services Team will tailor an account based on your individual needs and requirements. We pride ourselves on the personal relationships that we develop with our TAG Account clients. From the moment you contact our Charter Services Team until your trip is completed, they will control everything so that you can relax and enjoy the journey. TAG Lease Our TAG Wet Lease provides numerous advantages when you need access to a business jet for an extended period of time. For clients who do not want to take on the complexity and commitments of ownership, leasing a private jet might be an attractive proposition. You can lease a private jet for fixed periods, ranging from one month to a year. A number of aircraft in our fleet are available on a wet lease basis, guaranteeing you a modern business jet whenever you need it. The Charter Services Team can be relied on to analyse your needs in detail and provide you with a solution tailored to your specific requirements. Charter Services 7
