Airlines
We have a dominant position with major and regional airlines worldwide.

Aircraft Leasing
Most classes of aviation and aerospace are capital intensive, and nowadays, the majority of financing is derived from external sources. In order to service the needs of our clients, we have developed expertise in this field, actively reviewing and advising clients on lease agreements and negotiating directly with lessors and financiers on insurance clauses.

Airports and Airport Services
We provide risk management and airport insurance brokerage services to airports around the world. Whether it is a major international airport or a small private field, we have the in-depth aviation insurance experience necessary to provide top-flight coverage. We have the expertise to arrange and provide wrap-up coverage for airports that are expanding their facilities.

Aviation Claims Management
We provide expert claims management, negotiation and resolution, and serve as your advocate in the event of coverage disputes. Our team is comprised of the most highly respected and experienced experts in the world and has been responsible for handling many of the largest and most complex claims in aviation history.

Aviation/Aerospace Products Manufacturers
Clients include major airframe, component parts, and engine manufacturers, as well as suppliers, and overhaul and repair stations.

Aviation Workers' Compensation
We offer creative solutions to effectively manage your workers' compensation claims and costs, including absence management consulting, safety, ergonomic, and industrial hygiene consulting.

Corporate/Industrial Aid Aircraft
Corporate-owned aircraft flown by professional pilots is a specialty at Aon. Our clients include many of the Fortune 500 corporate fleets.

Fixed Base Operations
More than 4,000 fixed based operators serve the aviation needs of the nation's general aviation fleet. Providing fuel, maintenance, charter services, ramp services, and flight training, the fixed base operator has specialized insurance needs, which the professionals of Aon comprehensively understand.

Helicopters
The insurance needs of helicopters are unique to the aviation industry due to the potentially high-risk environment in which they operate. This requires insurance professionals who clearly understand the helicopter environment, and who can identify the needs of various operations. A member of Helicopter Association International, Aon is a key provider of aviation insurance and risk management services to the helicopter industry.

Non-Owned Liability
