What is Aircraft on Ground (AOG) Logistics?
Aircraft on Ground refers to a situation where an aircraft is grounded due to unexpected maintenance issues or an urgent need for critical parts. When an aircraft is AOG, every minute counts as the costs of having a grounded aircraft can be astronomical. Downtime in the aerospace industry can result in substantial financial losses, disrupted flight schedules, and damage to an airline's reputation. This is why it is so is crucial to have a trusted logistics partner who understands the urgency of the situation and can swiftly deliver the necessary parts to get the aircraft back in the air.
Expertise in the Aerospace Industry
With a rich history dating back to 1997, JJX Logistics has established itself as a leader in the aerospace logistics sector. One of our first major clients was in the aerospace industry and ever since, we have been nurturing and expanding our expertise in this field.
Our team is well-versed in operating international consignments, regularly delivering to various destinations across Europe and this year we introduced daily routes to France, Holland, and Germany. Our teams of Customs experts combined with our Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status further demonstrate our commitment to efficient cross-border operations.
True Impact of AOG
A grounded aircraft is a serious matter with significant far-reaching impacts including financial, operational, safety and reputational implications for both the affected airline and the aviation industry as a whole. Swift and effective AOG logistics solutions are essential to minimize these impacts and get grounded aircraft back in service as quickly and safely as possible. Some of the biggest impacts of a grounded aircraft include:
