Short Term Wet Lease Services
A Short Term Wet Lease refers to the leasing of an aircraft under ACMI terms between two airlines, both holding active operational licenses. The leasing period typically ranges from 7 to 30 days.
Reasons why airlines may choose such leasing arrangements:
- Delays in integrating the planned aircraft into the fleet as scheduled.
- Technical issues preventing the completion of scheduled maintenance on time.
- Accidents or damages rendering the planned aircraft inoperable.
- To meet increased demand during specific periods.
Wet lease agreements are commonly conducted under ACMI terms. In certain cases, if conditions and regulations permit, they can also be arranged as AMI leases.
The airline leasing out the aircraft is required to meet the following ACMI requirements during the lease period:
ACMI: This acronym stands for Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance.
- A (Aircraft): The leased aircraft must hold a valid airworthiness certificate.
- C (Crew): The leased aircraft must be staffed with pilots and cabin crew who hold valid licenses appropriate to the aircraft type. The crew size must be sufficient for the planned flight hours.
- M (Maintenance): Maintenance and repair services must be provided by technicians licensed and equipped for the specific aircraft type, covering both routine and non-routine tasks.
- I (Insurance): The aircraft must have valid insurance in compliance with international civil aviation regulations, covering the required terms and limits.
