Overview

Aviation Operations Management

This service provides full-service coordination for private charter flights across Madagascar. We manage the entire operational chain, from carrier selection to final ground transfer, for B2B partners integrating private aviation into their programs. Our network includes certified operators with aircraft suited for remote and regional airstrips across Madagascar, including paved and secondary-access runways.

Operational continuity in distributed terrain requires pre-positioned intelligence. Vivy Corporate manages the complexities of local aviation directly. Our dedicated aviation desk maintains direct liaison with carriers and the Civil Aviation Authority of Madagascar (ACM) to manage permits, verify runway conditions, and confirm fuel availability in advance.

We serve luxury travel designers, MICE directors, and logistics coordinators for NGOs and multinational corporations. Charter requests for remote, unpaved airstrips require significant lead time for permit processing, typically 7-14 business days. This is a regulatory timeline we manage but cannot shorten.

Every charter engagement is managed by a named aviation coordinator. This single point of contact provides written flight briefs, confirms logistics with all parties, and serves as the primary contact for any in-transit adjustments or contingency management.

What's Included

Core Aviation Capabilities

We contract exclusively with locally certified and audited air carriers. Aircraft selection is based on mission profile, runway type, and passenger load, ensuring the correct asset is deployed for each flight.
Our team coordinates access to unpaved and restricted-access airstrips. This includes pre-flight verification of runway conditions, local handling arrangements, and security protocols in remote locations.
We manage the entire flight permit and landing authorization process directly with the ACM. This centralized process minimizes delays and ensures all documentation is compliant with national regulations.
Flight plans include verification of Avgas or Jet A1 fuel availability at provincial airstrips. We provide precise baggage weight and dimension limits for each aircraft type to ensure operational safety.
Airside-to-vehicle coordination is a standard component of our service. We ensure ground transport is positioned and ready upon aircraft arrival, eliminating wait times and maintaining operational tempo.
Our ground staff and airside coordinators operate under a neutral or partner-branded protocol. All passenger interactions are discreet and confidential, preserving your brand identity throughout the journey.

How It Works

From Brief to Wheels Down

Our four-step process provides a structured framework for aircraft charter, ensuring clarity from initial request to post-flight reporting.

01
Aviation Brief
Submit your flight requirements, including routing, passenger count, payload, and desired schedule. Our aviation desk reviews the brief for operational feasibility and typically within the same business day, noting any immediate constraints.
02
Feasibility & Proposal
We present a formal proposal within 72 hours, detailing aircraft options, a confirmed flight schedule, all-inclusive costing, and baggage limitations. The proposal confirms runway suitability and permit lead times for the requested route.
03
Flight Confirmation
Upon your approval, we secure the aircraft and file the necessary permits with the aviation authorities. You receive a final flight confirmation document with the flight manifest, crew details, and ground contact information.
04
Execution & Monitoring
Our operations team actively monitors the flight from departure to arrival, coordinating with air traffic control and ground handlers. A post-mission report is generated to confirm successful execution and consolidate any expense reports.
Frequently Asked

Aviation Procurement Questions

Standard charter requests require a minimum of 5 business days. Flights to remote or restricted airstrips require 10-14 days to accommodate permit processing with the Civil Aviation Authority. We recommend submitting your brief as early as possible.

Our aviation desk actively monitors weather and aircraft status. In case of a potential disruption, we immediately communicate with you and the carrier to develop alternatives, which may include schedule adjustments, rerouting, or deploying a backup aircraft if available.

Baggage allowance is dictated by aircraft type, runway length, and passenger load. The final, non-negotiable limits are specified in our formal proposal. We require soft-sided luggage for most light aircraft and can arrange separate cargo transport for excess baggage.

Fixed-wing aircraft represent the core of aviation operations in Madagascar. Helicopter coordination may be possible for specific missions or executive requests through third-party operators, subject to availability, operational conditions, and advance planning.

All charter operations are conducted with full discretion. Flight manifests are confidential, and our ground teams are trained in executive and dignitary protocol. For white-label services, our staff use no Vivy branding and can operate under your company's name and procedures upon request.
