Jeppesen to open global trip service in India

Bangalore, Feb 10: Jeppesen, a Boeing subsidiary, has entered into a partnership with Bangalore-based Commercial and Business Aviation Services (CBAS) to establish a new international trip planning services operation here.

Later this month, the new location will open, giving business aviation operators access to local staff that has intimate knowledge of local cultures and civil aviation requirements.

The initiative will build on Jeppesen's 30 years of experience and expertise in international trip planning.

Staff members will work closely with Jeppesen's operations in London and Frankfurt. The company's trip planning service includes expert knowledge and online access to Jeppesen's leading weather, flight planning and trip planning systems.

''We're combining the best of both companies with this new exciting new partnership,'' said air comdr (retd) A.M. Ganapathy who is CBAS' managing partner and director.
