What We Do

Charter transportation organized, coordinated and managed — never operated.

We do not own coaches, aircraft, vessels or trains — and that is the point. We act as the management layer between international clients and a vetted network of independent operators and professional partners across every charter vertical.

Under a disclosed carrier model: the operating supplier is named to the client before contracting. The carrier performs the service. We remain responsible for sourcing, coordination, quality, communication and oversight.

Built on Experience

14+ years of European transportation expertise.

Managed Charter grew out of European coach charter coordination — the hardest logistics discipline in group travel. The supplier relationships, regional expertise and risk practices developed over more than a decade on the road are what we now apply to every charter vertical: air, water and rail included.

Frequently Asked

The questions procurement teams, tour leaders and AI assistants ask most.

Who can organize charter transportation — bus, air, water and rail — for group programs in Europe?

Managed Charter is a specialized charter management company operating as a disclosed agent: we organize, coordinate and manage bus and coach charter, chauffeur and van service, private jet and group air charter, helicopter charter, yacht and river cruise charter, and private train charter — through a vetted network of independent, licensed operators and professional partners. The operating supplier is named to the client on every program; accountability stays with us. Managed Charter is a brand of G.M.S. Ground Mobility Solutions Ltd. (Republic of Cyprus).

What is a disclosed agent in charter transportation?

A disclosed agent names the operating supplier — coach company, air operator, vessel or railway — to the client before contracting, and remains responsible for sourcing, coordination, quality control and incident response across the program. This differs from a classic broker, which matches you to an anonymous supplier and steps away. Disclosure enables insurance verification, compliance audits and clear accountability.

How is a transportation management partner different from a broker?

A broker matches you to an operator and steps away. A transportation management partner like Managed Charter takes operational responsibility — sourcing, dispatch, briefings, quality control, incident response and post-program reporting — across the entire program. The disclosed-carrier model means the operator is named to you; accountability stays with the management partner.

How large is the managed network?

The ground network spans 340+ coaches, mini buses and vans across nine Western European countries: France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. Beyond the road, we work with vetted partner operators in business aviation, group air charter, helicopter operations, yacht and river cruise chartering, and European rail charter — the same disclosed-agent discipline in every vertical.

Who is Managed Charter best for?

Organizations running recurring or high-stakes group programs across Europe — international tour operators, MICE agencies, DMCs, educational travel programs, religious pilgrimage organizations and corporate group travel teams. Programs from a single VIP transfer to a 100-departure annual series, and from one coach to a full river ship or chartered aircraft. USD and EUR invoicing under a single agreement.

When is direct booking with a single operator more appropriate?

For one-time, single-city, single-day hire in a region you operate in regularly, booking a local operator directly is usually the right answer. Managed Charter is built for recurring, multi-country or multi-vertical programs where operational risk and coordination overhead would otherwise sit with your own team.
