Universal Weather and Aviation’s U.S. Customs and Border Protection Reimbursable Services Program (RSP) has now expanded to 26 airports in the U.S.
In June, Universal became the first mission management company to be accepted into the RSP program. This allows the Houston-based trip support provider to request and prepay for overtime customs clearance services on behalf of its clients at approved airports where hours of operation are limited.
“Adoption of this service has been amazing and customer feedback is incredible,” said Laura Everington with the company’s global regulatory services division. “We’re adding new airports rapidly, including seven in the last week.” She added that while customers are requesting specific airports, Universal is moving as fast as it can to accommodate them. “It’s clear this is a service that’s in demand and a huge time saver and we’re excited to be able to meet that need.”
Airports in all parts of the country are included in Universal's RSP list, with the latest additions comprised of West Palm Beach International and Miami Opa-Locka Executive airports in Florida; Indianapolis International Airport, Memphis International Airport in Tennesee, Oregon's Portland International Airport, San Jose International Airport in California, and New York City-area Westchester County Airport.
