Setting the standard in Crew Transport
Hughes sets the benchmark in crew transport, servicing the needs of Australia’s leading passenger airlines, cargo airlines and cruise lines for over 50 years.
Crew transport is the foundation of our business, encompassing our cornerstone service values of safety, privacy, reliability and quality. We are committed to delivering 99.9% SLA standards and ensure we operate under the strictest of privacy and safety guidelines. Hughes will ensure your crew are transported to their destination on time, safely and discreetly, every time.
Hughes has always, and continues to invest heavily in technological solutions to make the end-to-end booking process as seamless, efficient and reliable as possible. We have recently turned our attention to ensuring we are still setting the global standard in technology to support our airline and cruise line crewing clients.
Our various platforms allow your operational teams to make, modify and track bookings in a highly live environment, with an express online chat platform available to ensure any queries are addressed swiftly.

All of this infrastructure is secured and supported in tier 1 data infrastructure with high-level redundancy, ensuring that our systems and your data are highly secured and functional when you need them. Our data and yours never leaves Australia.
Crew Vehicle Tracking App
Hughes has had the capabilities to share GPS tracking information with clients for years, however an issue we faced was getting this tracking information to crew members as we did not obtain their personal mobile numbers to send the GPS link to.
Our dedicated crew mobile app allows crew members to download the app at their discretion and track their vehicle, either to or from the airport by simply entering their Surname and the flight number they are travelling on.
We do not require any personal information and we have no record of crew members mobile numbers, first names or other data.
Crew members can also instantly chat with our 24/7 call centre team via the app or call their chauffeur directly using masked number encryption – keeping theirs and the chauffeurs’ numbers private.
The Hughes Crew App is all about ease, comfort, reliability and safety.
