Private aviation meets British motorsport in a new partnership between Air Charter Service (ACS) and Silverstone, home to the iconic British Grand Prix. ACS, one of the world’s leading private charter specialists, has been named the official private charter supplier to Silverstone, teaming up with long-term collaborator Helipad to elevate the heliport experience and bring bespoke aviation offerings to racing fans and luxury travellers alike.
The collaboration launches in spectacular fashion at this year’s British Grand Prix, where more than 6,000 passengers arrive by helicopter. Together, ACS and Helipad will unveil a custom-built terminal spanning over 8,500 square feet, complete with ACS flight representatives and Helipad’s proprietary passenger system.
The aim: to deliver seamless hospitality and comfort, matching the expectations of modern private aviation clients. Beyond race weekend, the partnership will offer tailored private jet and helicopter services, including a premium ‘park and fly’ shuttle from Turweston Aerodrome, designed to provide efficient, end-to-end transport to the legendary circuit year-round.
“As an organisation we share Silverstone’s relentless commitment to excellence,” said James Leach, CMO at ACS. “From our helicopter shuttles that save guests up to five hours of travel time, to private jets that streamline international arrivals, every detail is about enhancing the customer journey.”
Silverstone’s Chief Commercial Officer, Nick Read, echoed the sentiment: “As we evolve into a year-round luxury destination, ACS brings not only expertise in private aviation, but also the operational capability to support Europe’s busiest airspace during the British Grand Prix weekend.”
Whether you’re arriving for race day or an off-season Escapade retreat, Silverstone’s new aviation partnership with ACS offers the ultimate entrance—fast, flawless, and unmistakably first class.
