The Air Charter Association Welcomes Next Generation of Interns

The Air Charter Association has announced their selection of 15 interns for their 2025 intake. The programme was established in 2024 to support the development of the next generation of aviation talent. It has seen a 250% increase in applications since last year, indicating the rise in awareness of the programme and the enthusiastic interest in working within the sector. Notably, applications for the 2026 intake are already open for aspiring aviation professionals.

The internship provides the opportunity for young people to gain aviation training and work experience. With the obtaining of useful skills, knowledge, contacts and insight, the programme forms a valuable foundation for professional progression. This will also be mutually beneficial for the aviation industry, with International Air Transport Association (IATA) suggesting there will be an increased demand for aviation workers in the near future.

This year’s cohort is comprised of six women and nine men. Aged between 18 and 25 years old, the group are made up of a mix of high school graduates, university students, and graduates. They have all indicated their interest in gaining hands-on experience in working in the industry – this includes within fields of broking, operations management, engineering, and aircraft maintenance.

Glenn Hogben, Chief Executive Officer at Air Charter Association, has commented:

“The ultimate goal of the internship programme is to support talented young people into employment within the air charter sector and so it is fantastic to see the value of the programme in delivering opportunities for young people. The internship class of 2025 has a great mix of aspiring aviation professionals, and I am looking forward to engaging with them further at the upcoming training week.”

The Air Charter Association’s Internship Programme

This year’s internship will be carried out at London Biggin Hill Airport, and is set to start in August. The programme has four main components: training; work experience; project work and competition; and networking and awards.

The cohort will attend a four-day training course that covers basic aviation knowledge, introducing different parts of the air charter industry and ensuring everyone begins the internship at the same level. Interns will be assessed at the end of the course, and those who pass successfully will be awarded certificates of achievement.

Following the training component, interns will be placed at a member company of the Air Charter Association for 1-2 weeks. This allows for real-world experience, where knowledge can be put to practice.

A project topic will also be selected by interns, who will research into an area of the industry and produce a report of their findings. This will further develop their knowledge, with a specialised focus on their area of interest.

The programme will finish with the Air Charter Excellence Awards Dinner in November – one of the Air Charter Association’s largest events. During this occasion, over 500 industry delegates will be present for a great networking opportunity. Reports from the project work will be reviewed, and the two top-rated pieces of work will be announced and celebrated.

What are your thoughts on the Air Charter Association’s internship programme? Will you be applying in the future? Let us know your aspirations.
