Leading European
aircraft management and charter company, Centreline,
has been cleared to carry passengers to the USA
without a visa after securing its participation in
the Visa Waiver Programme (VWP).
Bristol
Airport-headquartered Centreline completed its first
flight, under the VWP, at the beginning of January
as a signatory carrier, enabling the operator to
bring non-U.S. nationals into the country without a
valid U.S. visa. U.S. Customs and Border law states
that passengers travelling to the USA must travel on
a signatory carrier if they do not hold a valid U.S.
visa, even if they have their ESTA approval.

Centreline
Commercial Director,
Phil Brockwell
commented; “We have worked hard to ensure our
participation in the Visa Waiver programme as it
removes a key barrier to travel for our passengers.
We have two, superb, long range aircraft in our
Falcon 2000 and Legacy 500 and these will be
utilised to fly our customers to the United States
in the utmost comfort. We are looking forward to
welcoming more U.S. bound passengers on board.”
Centreline,
previously known as Centreline Air Charter, recently
undertook a total brand review and unveiled a new
corporate identity and website. Centreline currently
operates a fleet of 9 aircraft under management.
