Stuttgart-based DC Aviation has appointed Swiss consultancy Exklusiv Aviation as its regional agent for the UK as well as for the western and southern parts of Switzerland.

"As Germany's largest business jet operator with branches in Dubai, Zurich, Malta and Moscow, we are excited to announce this representation because we strongly believe that adding a regional presence to our global capabilities is a logical step to enhance our service and proximity to our clients and partners", says CEO Michael Kuhn.

The Exklusiv Aviation team will promote DC Aviation's services such as aircraft management. In addition, it will offer several of the operator's aircraft for charter, including jets such as Challenger and Dornier aircraft.

Philippe Fragnière, director of Exclusiv Aviation, adds: "To enter into a cooperation with DC Aviation, which is a large, well-organised and effectively structured operation with a very knowledgeable and thorough team of more than 300 employees, is a very positive step for us.

"We look forward to showing our clients, friends and partners that passion and thoroughness are still very much part of business aviation."
