Aviation Insurance BC

There is nothing standard about the aviation industry. From single operators flying recreational aircraft to manufacturers creating precision parts with exacting tolerances, unique challenges are the norm. The level of precision, accountability, and commitment required in aviation must be matched by insurance policies that provide the certainty you need to operate.

At Coughlin Insurance Brokers, our role is to support your operation, provide clear guidance to help you make informed decisions about your insurance, and deliver policies that protect you when you need them.

Commercial Aviation

Commercial aviation is a broad, complex industry. From chartered flights on private planes to search and rescue operations conducted by helicopter pilots in the North Shore Mountains, each company has diverse, unique needs. We work with you to determine your exposure to risks and find comprehensive coverage to protect you.

Our experience includes passenger and cargo operations, heli-skiing and tourism, firefighting and air tanker services, film and survey work, search and rescue, logging, flight schools, executive and industrial aid transport, and aeromedical operations. Whatever your mission, we help you safeguard both your assets and your organization.

Aerospace Maintenance, Manufacturing & Repair

Liability insurance is critical in aerospace manufacturing, where defects on a single part can lead to catastrophic consequences. The team at Coughlin Insurance understands the risk that manufacturing and maintenance teams are exposed to and how to protect your business while satisfying contractual and regulatory requirements.



Private & Recreational Aircraft

There are few more beautiful places on the planet to own a recreational aircraft than British Columbia. As a private aircraft owner, you need insurance to keep you protected. Enjoy the freedom of flying stress-free with protection from Coughlin Insurance Brokers.

We arrange hull and liability protection for privately operated fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, amateur-built, and ultralight airplanes, including aircraft under shared or rental arrangements.

Beyond coverage, we also assist with insurance considerations for financing, leases, and training – straightforward advice and protection, for whatever you fly. It’s truly comprehensive risk management for aircraft owners!



Airports & Ground Services

Airports, heliports, and fixed-based operators are essential to the entire aviation sector – and they face a broad and ever-changing slew of risks. We develop coverage for airport operators, FBOs, service providers, and refuelling operations, tailoring solutions that balance day-to-day operational realities with the unexpected, providing coverage for property and protection for losses caused by liability claims and regulatory issues.



Unmanned Aircraft Systems

The unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drone industries are growing at an incredible pace, with new commercial and industrial applications emerging constantly. Exciting new use cases mean unforeseen risks; comprehensive protection is a must.

Whether you operate drones for mapping, surveillance, delivery, or research, you face exposures around third-party liability, equipment damage, and contractual obligations. We provide solutions for both owned and non-owned UAVs, ensuring your coverage evolves as fast as the technology you rely on.
