About Avemco Insurance Company
Written by the company
Avemco Insurance Company has been insuring pilots and aircraft owners since 1961, making us one of the most experienced and trusted names in general aviation insurance. As the only direct writer of aircraft insurance in the United States, we offer a uniquely straightforward experience from the very first conversation. We specialize in liability and hull coverage for single and multi engine piston aircraft, seaplanes, gliders, experimental aircraft, CFIs, flying clubs, and aircraft traders.

overage based on your individual situation.
This direct model allows us to deliver the most personalized experience in general aviation insurance. Your underwriter works one on one with you to understand your aircraft, your experience level, your training, and how you actually fly, giving you faster answers, clearer communication, and attentive service.
Rated A++ (Superior) by AM Best, we offer exceptional financial strength and long standing stability. Backed by decades of aviation expertise, we deliver clear policies, fast quotes, exceptional customer service, and coverage built around the way you fly.

Written by the company
- Avemco Insurance Company is the only direct writer of aircraft insurance in the U.S.
- That means we’re the only insurance company that connects you directly with an Aviation Insurance Specialist (underwriter) who is empowered to solve problems and approve coverage instantly instead of a middleman who simply passes your request on to somebody else. That’s why we can approve coverage based on your individual situation, not what some rulebook says.

Thank for being a personalized company of Service
I submitted a not favorable review after payment for Insurance for this year that had increased from a previous year of full coverage. A representative from Avemco called the next day and also received an e-mail with regard to my review. I called the requested number and spoke with the same representative and received a full explanation (the hull value coverage was 20K higher than previously & no longer fleet coverage)

I liked the fast reply
I liked the fast reply. Honest answers to the real world questions that I asked. My agent was Lucas and he was great. From start to finish we were done in ten minutes. It was so fast I even decided to get a quote for a second plane I own that I have been considering insuring. Which only took about another 5 minutes. I am a first time customer to Avemco and I am very happy so far. Thanks Lucas for the great customer service and getting me started with Avemco.
