GlobeAir is proud to announce its Bronze Safety Status award after 40,000 hours and six years of flying without any accident.

On Monday May 19th, one day before the opening of the EBACE 2014 in Geneva, the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) and the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) jointly hosted a workshop dedicated to the safety issues facing aircraft operators in Europe. During this occasion GlobeAir was awarded the Bronze Safety of Flight Award, handed over to flight operations manager Leopold Vicchione and GlobeAir´s safety manager Diego Durjava during the closing ceremony of the safety workshop, which took place at the Palexpo Conference Center in Geneva.

EBAA aims to promote excellence and professionalism amongst all members to enable them the delivery of the best-in-class safety and operational efficiency, whilst representing their interests at all levels in Europe, to ensure the proper recognition of business aviation as a vital part of the aviation infrastructure, supporting local and national economies.
