About Us

Created in December 2005, Berkley Aviation offers a wide array of programs which include coverage for airlines, helicopters, miscellaneous General Aviation operations, non-owned aircraft, fixed-base operations, control towers, airports, financial institutions, and other specialized 'niche' programs.

We are committed to strengthening our existing client relationships while seeking new, mutually profitable associations. Our strong security, innovative products and superior underwriting and claims service make both goals very attainable. We pride ourselves not only on our ability to analyze and understand the unique needs of our producers and policyholders, but also on our ability to provide solutions to satisfy those needs.

Berkley Aviation can write business in every state on either an admitted or a non-admitted basis, and can participate selectively on international risks. Our business is placed through a select group of agents and brokers who specialize in aviation insurance.

We are pleased to underwrite on behalf of three W. R. Berkley member companies: StarNet Insurance Company on an admitted basis and Gemini Insurance Company on a non-admitted basis for domestic risks, and Berkley Insurance Company on a reinsurance basis for international risks.
