International Trip Planning Services is a private aviation services company based in Houston, TX. We opened our doors in 2008 with the mission to provide customer-focused trip support to corporate and private aviation clients. We are not a large company, and we like it that way.

• Familiarity with Apple OS, Microsoft Office, and Adobe Reader
