Avion Express has signed a new partnership with AIR ALGÉRIE. ✈️ Five aircraft are now operating on behalf of Air Algérie, based in Algiers (ALG), marking the beginning of a new collaboration. Every ACMI partnership is more than additional capacity - it brings new routes, expanded operations, and seamless process integration. Behind every flight is a joint effort of teams working across borders with one shared goal: safe and reliable travel for passengers!

What happens if the pilot arrives late to the airport? 👀✈️ I asked Stefano, an Avion Express Captain… and he said it’s almost impossible. Why? Because crews are usually based in hotels right next to the airport, with tight schedules and crew transport. The only way it gets messy is a freak scenario, like the crew bus going to the wrong airport, then you’re stuck fighting traffic back. Then he dropped two simple travel tips that honestly changed my habits: ✅ Get an AirTag (I’ve lost my luggage twice in 2026… AirTag = peace of mind) ✅ Arrive early - especially if you don’t know the airport layout. Season picks? ❄️ Winter: Italy (skiing) ☀️ Summer: anywhere because pilots already see the world on repeat. How early do you arrive for your flight?👇 Hi, I’m Michael a Zimbabwean travel creator documenting real travel advice from pilots, crew, locals and travelers. #pilotlife #pilot #pilots #traveltips #traveltheworld

Have you ever noticed our Cabin Crew wearing pins with stars on their uniforms? This means that this person is truly exceptional and recognized by their colleagues! This is our initiative STARS, which has been running for a few years now, and we have just celebrated the winners of the first quarter of this year. 🌟 STARS Campaign is a recognition initiative which allows our Cabin Crew to nominate their peers for one of the STARS qualities, and celebrate exceptional achievements in five categories: teamwork, respectfulness, service-mindedness, representative appearance, and smile. We are really proud to see how many team members are engaged and ready to recognize each other’s efforts and exceptional performance in their everyday jobs. Congratulations, STARS winners, and thank you to our entire team, keep shining! ✈️💫

What’s a pilot’s favourite destination? I asked, Cpt. Franco Narcisi, Chief Pilot at Avion Express @avionexpress 👨🏻‍✈️(@airbus A320 Captain, Type Rating Instructor + Examiner): “As a pilot… what’s your favourite destination to fly and travel to?” He smiled and said Brazil - a place he still remembers from his time as a military pilot. (Fun fact: he first got inspired to fly from @f1 1 and the original @tomcruise Top Gun movie.) But then he said something that stuck with me: Pilots don’t always have one “favourite place.” Sometimes you want Europe. Sometimes you want home. Sometimes you want the other side of the world. Your mind changes fast, and that’s part of the job. Then his passenger advice was even better: “Change the destination,” and “Visit as many destinations as you can.” If you’ve already been somewhere… why repeat it when the world is massive and life is short? His personal standouts: Iceland (for the unreal landscapes) and Hainan, China, where he was based for seven years. So I’m asking you: Do you re-visit your favourites… or chase new stamps every time?

Premiere: Watch Our New Captains Podcast!🎙️✈️ As we continue sharing and explaining the ACMI world more widely, we’re introducing a fresh new initiative: the A320 Captains Podcast. Watch the teaser now and get a glimpse of what it’s all about.

Celebrating all women in aviation today! Each year more and more women are joining aviation, and we’re proud to see our own team growing as well. Your courage to chase big dreams continues to inspire the next generation of aviators. Dream high, believe in your path, and go for your dreams. Happy Women’s Day! ✈️💐

It’s often said that ACMI seasonality is difficult to explain. But we explain it very simply - we basically follow the summer all year long, moving an aircraft to where summer begins, from where it has just ended. And that’s exactly how it looks - just like in our video. For pilots, it means shaping your flying career across diverse operations, immersing yourself in new cultures, and flying a schedule defined by the rhythm of global seasons. Currently, we have open positions for A320 Captains from around the world, so take a look at our offer (link in bio), stay tuned for more, and apply if you feel we could be the right fit for you. It’s a distinctive way to experience aviation, adventure, and professional development all at once. The application link is in our bio. 🔗

We're continuing our short ACMI series, and this time we speak about how we introduce ACMI to traditional airlines. ✈️ We asked our Head of Business Development Americas, Roberto Held, and here’s what he shared: ACMI: ✅ Provides fleet flexibility, enabling airlines to quickly adjust capacity and strategy during peak seasons. ✅ Supports cost optimization and operational efficiency during low-demand periods. ✅ Enhances overall operational performance by allowing capacity adjustments across different seasonal cycles. Thank you, Roberto, for being part of this short ACMI series. There is more to come - stay tuned!
