  2. Company Overview Air Choice One began in 1979. It was originally incorporated as Multi-Aero, a family owned and operated business that has served the public for over 30 years. In 2008, Air Choice One airlines was granted its first Essential Air Service route. Since that time, Air Choice One has continued to earn multiple Midwest Essential Air Service routes including Burlington, IA, and Decatur, IL. Over time, we have proven ourselves to be a successful carrier with a flight completion record of over 99% and an on-time performance record exceeding 95%. Some keys to our success include: • Expanding our Fleet of Aircraft • Outstanding Customer Service with Detailed, Personalized Attention • We are Community Enthusiasts • Easy Booking Online at www.airchoiceone.com and popular consumer websites

  3. Flying The Grand Caravan The Cessna Grand Caravan is one of the largest and safest aircraft in its class. With over 2,000 aircraft flying in 70+ countries, it also ranks as the most popular aircraft in its class. Caravans are responsible for more than 11 million hours of flight time worldwide. Air Choice One airlines is proud to be operating Caravans. Our aircraft are equipped with the latest in avionics technology including dual redundant systems, traffic and terrain avoidance, fully integrated auto pilot, onboard weather, and weather radar. The Caravan is superior in customer comfort and satisfaction, and has a large cargo pod to keep the cabin free of baggage. In terms of baggage weight, the Caravan can accommodate up to 110 pounds per passenger verses 50 pounds per passenger in many other types of aircraft. The Caravan’s open, spacious passenger cabin was designed with the customer’s comfort and enjoyment in mind. In its first chapter, Air Choice One selected the Cessna Grand Caravan because it is one of the largest, safest, and most popular aircraft in its class. Over the years we have capitalized on the reliability of the Grand Caravan to deliver service you can count on. Air Choice One’s consistent performance will carry us into the future.

  4. We Are Connected We have never been more visible to the consumer. GDS VISIBILTY Air Choice One airlines has full global distribution visibility. This means that Air Choice One airlines is available for booking through major consumer travel websites and travel agencies. We can be seen on Apollo, Worldspan, Galileo, Travelport, and Sabre, as well as, on various consumer sites. Of course, we are also available for online booking through our website www.airchoiceone.com and by speaking with our customer service representatives at 1-866-I-FLY-VIP. OUR CONNECTION WITH UNITED AIRLINES Air Choice One airlines has a connection with United Airlines. For those Air Choice One passengers whose itineraries start at, or continue to, points beyond, this connection assists as they make the transition to or from United Airlines. Because we understand the convenience such connections offer our passengers we are actively engaged in discussions with other air carriers as well.

  5. Hear What They are Saying About Us… “Last Friday my wife & I flew to Chicago for an overnight get-a-way. Holy cow was it fun! Matt the pilot was very friendly, personable and professional as was everyone in your organization...We loved flying Air Choice One. We are planning another trip to catch the Cubs! Flying Air Choice One to Chicago was so convenient I decided to send an employee to St. Louis this April for a quick one day work shop. Whether Work or Fun…It’s Air Choice One!  -Bud Wilcox, Decatur Civic Center General Manager “Two of your employees went the extra mile in helping me with much needed info on luggage and where your flights landed in St. Louis and what terminal I needed to go to get to my Southwest Airlines flight. Corey (helped me) and he even went as far as calling me back and letting me know that Air Choice One flew into the east terminal at St. Louis and even gave me the gate number, that is hard to find in today’s customer service people, most of them just want a paycheck and could care less about their customers, but two of your well-trained staff went above and beyond the extra mile to help a first time customer who will be back as loyal customer for years to come.” -Dennis Krieger, Burlington Traveler “I can't say enough good things about your airline. Everyone is just the best, from the reservations dept. to the counter/gate personnel to the pilots, and now to your department. I don't know what I would do if you folks ever left Burlington.” –Jim H., Burlington Traveler
