Kidnapping
& Crisis Management
Get your customized quote for our Kidnapping, Ransom Demand and Extortion Risk protection, dedicated to private aviation professionals.
THE WORST WOULD BE NOT TO HAVE CONSIDERED IT!
In recent years, new risks related to private aviation have emerged, such as
kidnapping, ransom demands, and extortion. These uncommon but serious concerns must be taken into account by private aviation professionals.
The consequences of a kidnapping can be devastating for you and your loved ones,
especially due to ransom payments, legal fees, and damage to reputation. When a
pilot goes missing or is held captive, the aircraft they are responsible for cannot take off. This can seriously disrupt the travel plans of an entire company. And because business trips are often scheduled on tight timelines, delays can become costly.
Designed to support you in every situation
