How It Works
Ground handling at Ngurah Rai Airport begins with advance planning. For private jets and charter flights, we submit permit applications to DGCA (for landing permits) and coordinate with AirNav Indonesia for overflight clearance. Our team arranges aircraft parking slots, fuel orders, ground power units, and any special equipment needed for your aircraft type.
On arrival, our ground crew meets the aircraft at the assigned parking position. For VIP passengers, we provide expedited CIQ clearance through the VIP terminal, handling customs declarations, immigration processing, and quarantine checks in a private, comfortable setting. Crew members are assisted with accommodation, ground transport, and any operational requirements during their stay in Bali.
For departures, we coordinate security screening, flight plan filing, fuel loading, catering delivery, and passenger boarding. Our 24/7 operations center monitors flight schedules and proactively communicates any changes in airport conditions, weather, or regulations that might affect your operation. We handle everything so you can focus on your passengers and mission.
