About Us


In business years, South Aero is a family owned and operated aviation company, offering top of the line passenger and freight services. With well-maintained aircraft and highly qualified staff, the Albuquerque-based company is known for their dedication to customer satisfaction and successful delivery of each cargo or passenger load.

Offering 24/7 service and accepting last-minute requests are only two of the features that have made South Aero one of the nation’s leading aviation companies.

Service Reliability is our Specialty.

Documentation of successful service reliability is as follows:

South Aero flights continued in New Mexico from November 1982 to September 2014, at which time we provided flights 6 days per week averaging more than 50 flights per week. Our routes operated from Albuquerque to Las Vegas, Tucumcari, Clovis, Roswell, Hobbs, Carlsbad, Alamogordo, Las Cruces, Deming, Silver City, Grants, Gallup and Farmington. Our reliability record was required to be above 98%, which we exceeded at all times and usually at 99% for most months. At no time did we have cancellations except weather related, because we kept numerous backup aircraft and crews.

South Aero pilots are well seasoned, and most remain with the company for years. They all enjoy a career in which they can fly for an operator that maintains the aircraft to a high standard of excellence and requires excellent service. We require all of our pilots to have the Regulation required 1,200 hours of flight experience and to be both commercially and instrument rated.  At the present time, all South Aero pilots have thousands of hours and have been flying with us for many years.
