Thats correct, Gae used to work for Bristow and now runs Geko.

She organised all the permits, handling agents, hotels, etc for all the ferry trips I have done and she was magnificent, I highly recommend her services because you will have loads on your plate already doing the ferry flight. All her contacts and experience are invaluable and as somebody else already said: "Expensive ones upfront work out cheaper in the end."

Yes highly recommend Gae. We had a seamless trip from Oz to the UK a few years ago with every detailed covered.

Second the Gae recommendations. She supported 4 of my trips and being a fluent French speaker helped her sort the details in the Francophone countries. She used to be the Ops lady for the BHL charter S76 and company HS125.
