An experienced team with a fresh approach, Equinox provides exceptional aircraft charter and travel services. This is our story.
EQUINOX RISING
a cohesive service, a lighter administrative load, efficiency, reliability and dedicated 24/7 support.
The idea for Equinox came during the pandemic when our founders, all experienced TMC leaders, discussed together what the ultimate travel management company might look like.
They asked, what if specialist travel was reinvented for the way people want to travel post pandemic – providing everything in house and delivering a highly personalised approach?
Fast forward to 2021. Equinox Charter and Equinox Travel launched with a highly experienced team of specialists, each team member bringing something unique to the table, ready to serve the pent up demand for travel after the restrictions of Covid.
Together, the unique and ready position to provide both private charter and commercial travel to various sectors of which each team member specialised, was engaged, and a new kind of Equinox began.
OUR VISION
Finding the right aircraft – at the right price – creating multi-leg itineraries and then organising the ancillaries: cargo, hotels, transfers, ground transport and more, can be challenging. But it doesn’t have to be.
Equinox is the bespoke travel service that does it all. Charter and travel. Solutions and support. With elevated customer service.
We’re proud to look after tours and travel for artists, bands, film studios, major household names, organisations large & small and sports stars. Our people go above and beyond to deliver an effortless, seamless travel experience with swift access to charter flights and everything that goes alongside, for every single client.
That’s why we created an integrated aircraft charter and travel hub, where we do it all, so you don’t have to.
