Dublin-based Avia Solutions Group (ASG), the world’s largest ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) provider, is launching its first Global Services Centre in Manila, the Philippines. The Centre is expected to start operations in January 2025, focusing primarily on supporting the technical and flight operations of ASG airlines and MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) organizations. In addition, it will contribute to corporate services, including IT, payroll, finance, and other administrative functions across the Group’s subsidiaries.

Avia Solutions Group Global Services Philippines will be responsible for a wide range of functions, including those specific to the aviation industry, including flight operations support, maintenance planning, and technical documentation management.

The Group chose the Philippines for several key reasons, including the depth and quality of the local talent pool, and the country’s strategic location. South-East Asia has the world’s fastest-growing air travel market, with Boeing forecasting 8% annual traffic growth over the next 20 years. Therefore, it is one of the regions where the Group sees the most expansion potential, including plans to secure their Air Operator Certificate (AOC) in the Philippines. In recent years it has established airlines in Thailand, Indonesia, and Australia, with plans to enhance its footprint further.
