Expert assessment and guidance in the field of aviation insurance.
Zekeriya Dur works on assessing the insurance needs specific to the aviation sector and providing the right guidance. Unlike standard insurance products, aviation insurance simultaneously considers many variables such as aircraft type, purpose of use, mode of operation and flight route. Pre-applications and questions submitted through this platform are evaluated and directed according to the relevant type of risk. The information shared does not constitute a coverage guarantee or a price offer; the final assessment depends on the policy terms of the relevant insurer.

Aviation liability insurance for airport and ground handling operators is designed to manage the financial consequences of bodily injury, property damage and aircraft damage arising from apron, terminal and airside operations. Apron accidents, pushback incidents, aircraft fuelling, baggage and cargo handling, damage to airport facilities and third-party claims are among the principal exposures requiring specialist insurance assessment.
