Seaplane Asia offers unique and sustainable transportation solutions, providing air charter and amphibious seaplane services to connect remote islands and coastal areas. Their services aim to enhance accessibility, reduce travel times, and deliver unparalleled travel experiences while minimizing environmental impact. Besides travel and tourism, Seaplane Asia’s versatile seaplanes are equipped for medical evacuations, search and rescue operations, cargo and logistics, monitoring missions, and corporate charters. Their portfolio includes well-known brands like Siam Seaplane and Siam Scenic in Thailand and Samra Seaplane in Cambodia.

In addition to seaplane services, Seaplane Asia operates Jetboard Asia, distributing high-end electric surfboards such as the Lampuga, and Siam Aero Services along with Samra Aero Services, retailing Bose Aviation products and other aviation accessories.

Founded in 2019, Seaplane Asia's leadership team includes Capt. Lionel Mougel, Fabrice Mouton, and Dennis Keller, who collectively bring extensive experience from aviation, maintenance, and business sectors. With a strong team of global and regional advisors, and under the leadership of Ms. Worakanya Siripidej, CEO of Siam Seaplane Thailand, the company is poised for substantial growth.

The newly acquired funds will bolster Seaplane Asia’s growth in Thailand and support further expansion across Southeast Asia. The company has established strategic partnerships with luxury resorts such as InterContinental Phuket and Pattaya, W Samui, and Rosewood Phnom Penh, enhancing their service offering. Collaborations with marinas like Ocean Marina Jomtien and private jet service provider MJets further underscore their commitment to providing a seamless and luxurious travel experience.

Ankit Upadhyay, Founder & General Partner at A2D Ventures, expressed enthusiasm for the investment: “We are thrilled to support this blue ocean opportunity led by aviation veterans. We firmly believe that Seaplane Asia’s commitment to sustainability and direct waterfront access not only promises to enhance connectivity and convenience but also to open up a world of untapped potential for tourism, commerce, and community development in Thailand.”

Dr. Tomas Koch, Founder & Chairman at TK & Partners: “I am inspired by the evolution of Seaplane Asia from its early days to its present success. This company is on track to make a substantial impact on lifestyle travel, enriching the experiences of tourists and residents in Thailand and beyond.”

Seaplane Asia CFO, Schalk van der Westhuizen, highlighted the growth potential: “We are thrilled about the immense growth potential awaiting us in Southeast Asia. This investment round not only fortifies our presence but also accelerates our journey toward unlocking opportunities in this vibrant region.”
