AOG & Aircraft Emergency Support

Aircraft on ground (AOG) situations demand immediate action. A delayed aircraft can cost airlines thousands per hour, making rapid parts delivery critical. T&C Logistics specialises in emergency AOG response, with 24/7 dispatch and direct airport access to minimise aircraft downtime.

"Belfast International Airport is a busy regional hub, and our AOG service has helped airlines recover from critical situations in under 2 hours. Whether it's an engine component, avionics spare, or hydraulic part, we treat every AOG call as an emergency." — Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics

Our AOG process is streamlined:

• 24/7 dispatch centre receives your urgent request
• Driver mobilised and at airport within 30–45 minutes
• Airside access for rapid collection and handover
• Real-time tracking and direct communication with flight crew
• Onward delivery to maintenance base, other airports, or standby locations

We've supported AOG recoveries across the UK and EU, working with major airlines, MRO providers, and independent maintenance centres. Our fleet includes temperature-controlled and secure vehicles for sensitive components, and we maintain partnerships with other couriers for rapid onwards transit if needed.
