Aviation Insurance
Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty (AGCS) has been at the forefront of aviation insurance since the early days of powered flight, making us one of the largest and most experienced aviation insurance teams in the world. From insuring some of the earliest pioneers of flight in the 1920’s to being a forerunner in the satellite insurance field, we have a long history and proven track record of reliability, security and service.
Today, we provide the full spectrum of aviation insurance solutions to everyone from major fleets, manufacturers and airports to private pilots, ground handlers and niche component manufacturers.
The aviation industry is constantly evolving. Advances in technology, new challenges and emerging risks require a partner who is highly experienced – one with the foresight to anticipate, rather than simply react. We have built relationships based on detailed knowledge and technical understanding of this industry and its challenges.
