Air Charter Service (ACS) has opened an office in Cologne, marking the company’s fourth location in Germany. “We have been looking for some time at opening an office in Cologne—it’s a key hub for the aircraft industry in Germany,” said Caroline Werf, CEO of ACS Germany. “ACS has always had a strong partnership with Cologne Airport and, with this new office, we are looking forward to even closer cooperation in the future.”
The Cologne office complements ACS’s existing charter operations in Frankfurt and Munich, as well as its ACS Time Critical headquarters in Frankfurt. Cologne is home to several major aviation organizations, including the German Aerospace Center and EASA.
Melanie Hentschel, who has more than 10 years of industry experience and has been with ACS for more than three years, will lead the new location. “I’m excited to get going here in Cologne, the city in which I’ve spent most of my career. Together with Caroline, we’re already looking to grow the team over the coming months and make Cologne another successful German ACS office,” Hentschel said.
The new office is part of Air Charter Service’s ongoing strategy to provide charter services in key aviation markets across Germany.
