Operator Questions: French Polynesia

How many business aviation operators are there in French Polynesia?

What types of aircraft do operators have in French Polynesia?

Local companies' fleets include the Beechcraft 260, Beechcraft B200C, Beechcraft B200CGT, Britten Norman BN2T, De Havilland DHC-6-300, and Aerospatiale AS350B2. We select the appropriate aircraft for the task from this fleet and from aircraft in neighboring countries.

Why look at the operator's AOC?

An air operator certificate (AOC) is issued by the aviation authorities of the country of registration and defines flight regulations, crew requirements, and dispute resolution procedures. Flights are always operated by the operator, not the broker, so their approvals are verified before a booking is confirmed.

Market data and sources

IS-BAO (IBAC): an air operator certificate confirms the right to fly commercially, while the independent standard shows how procedures are built inside the company
ARGUS: an operator audit checks crew experience, safety history and fleet condition — before booking, not after
NBAA: three quarters of business aviation operators fly a single aircraft, so availability is checked for every individual flight
