EBACE, which is being held from the 20th - 22nd May at Geneva's PALEXPO - located immediately adjacent to Geneva International Airport - is the flagship forum for the European business aviation community to source products and services from the world's top operators.

"Abu Dhabi is showing rapid growth and settling its position as a prime business and tourism hub, which will have a major impact on the fortunes of the international aviation market,"


said H.E. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Chairman of Royal Jet.

Sheikh Hamdan, who heads the delegation representing Royal Jet, together with CEO and President Shane O'Hare and a number of sales and operations staff, explained that the importance of EBACE to the company's strategy for growing its business in Europe was due to the fact that it is the only major European event focused solely on business aviation.

"Royal Jet provides a complete range of aviation services from VIP charter and ground handling to medical evacuation (Royal Med), through to aircraft management - providing clients a turnkey solution for acquiring, maintaining and managing private jets," he added.

"We are the premier operator in the Middle East, and we have our own Fixed Base Operations facility at Abu Dhabi International Airport which currently receives around 150 aircraft per month, offering a fast turnaround service, as well as allowing clients a technical stop-over on their way from the Far East to Europe or vice versa to refuel at highly competitive prices, check the aircraft for maintenance and upload catering without wasting any of the client's valuable time."

Royal Jet has seen year-on-year growth in the order of 25 to 30% for the past three years, and there is no sign of that abating, and its growing fleet of 12 aircraft - including the world's largest fleet of Boeing Business Jets - are fitted out to the highest specifications and the ultimate in luxury.

"We look forward to a highly productive time at EBACE, meeting new potential clients and keeping up with those we know, and in the meantime, spreading the word about our award winning services we have on offer which are truly the equal of anywhere in the world," Sheikh Hamdan concluded.
