This includes verification of valid Air Operator Certificate
(AOC), IOSA safety audit status, IS-BAO compliance check,
ARG/US or Wyvern safety rating verification, insurance

We coordinate fuel uplift at airports across all six
continents — from major international hubs to regional
airports and remote destinations. Our Nationwide Network
of JIG-certified fuel suppliers and into-plane service
providers enables us to arrange fuel at virtually any
airport where aviation fuel is available. Contact our
fuel team with your specific airport and fuel requirements
and we will confirm availability and pricing.
How do you ensure the quality of fuel supplied?
We only work with JIG-certified fuel suppliers and
into-plane service providers who comply with all
applicable international aviation fuel quality and
safety standards. Every uplift is accompanied by
complete quality documentation including fuel release
certificates, density records, and supplier quality
certificates. Strict contamination prevention protocols
are followed at every fuelling point including filter
checks, bonding and grounding procedures, and dead
man's handle safety systems.
Can you arrange Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)?
Yes. Aero Assist Global actively promotes and coordinates
SAF supply for operators committed to reducing their
carbon footprint. SAF is currently available at a growing
number of airports across the Philippines and can reduce lifecycle
CO2 emissions by up to 80% compared to conventional
jet fuel. We provide full SAF documentation to support
your CORSIA compliance reporting including chain of
custody certificates. Contact our fuel team to check
SAF availability at your destination.
How far in advance should I request fuel coordination?
We recommend submitting fuel requests at least 24 hours
before your planned arrival to allow sufficient time
for supplier coordination and confirmation. For remote
or challenging destinations where fuel availability
may be limited, we recommend requesting as early as
possible — ideally 48–72 hours in advance. For urgent
or last-minute fuel requirements, contact our fuel
team directly and we will do our best to accommodate
your request.
What VIP Security services do you provide?
Our VIP Security services include armed security escorts for high-profile
passengers, secure aircraft parking and ramp supervision, private terminal
