Aircraft owners: Did your insurance premium increase at renewal?

If your airplane hasn’t changed, you haven’t had a claim, and your pilot experience has improved, a higher premium may be a sign that it’s time for a second opinion.

The aviation insurance market changes every year. When more insurers compete for aircraft business, owners may have opportunities for better pricing, coverage, or policy options.

But you won’t know unless the market is properly reviewed.

Ask your current broker for a complete breakdown of the insurance companies approached—or let the aviation insurance professionals at BWI review your policy and renewal quote.

BWI serves more than 10,000 aircraft owners and operators, and we shop and compare leading aviation insurance markets for our customers every day.

Buying an Airplane?

Don’t fall in love with the airplane before you know what it’s going to cost you to insure.

Two aircraft with similar purchase prices can have completely different insurance premiums, pilot requirements, and training requirements.

Before signing a purchase agreement:
→ Narrow your search to 2–3 aircraft makes/models.
→ Get preliminary insurance pricing on each.
→ Find out what training may be required.
→ Factor the insurance costs into your buying decision.
→ THEN choose the airplane.

At BWI Aviation Insurance, we insure more than 10,000 aircraft, and we’ve seen buyers run into this situation hundreds of times.

A quick insurance review before you buy could save you thousands of dollars and a lot of frustration.
