Avia Solutions Group : Chapman Freeborn Airchartering, Inc. adds Cargo Director and a new Northeast office in USA

Expanding its international operations, Chapman Freeborn is growing to meet the increasing demands of the air charter sector and support existing customers in the US market.

Chapman Freeborn’s Chief Commercial Officer, Neil Dursley says, “I’m delighted to have Ben Hampton join Chapman Freeborn and head up our Northeast office. It’s great news for us but also for customers with urgent needs like automotive and AOG shipments and for new customers nationwide who want to get their products into key markets around the world.”

With over 10 years in the aviation industry, Hampton joins Chapman Freeborn as the Cargo Director for the Northeastern USA. Prior to joining, he was the Director of Sales for a part 135 operator, and prior to that was the Assistant Director of US Cargo for a global charter brokerage.
