ExecuJet has added a third Challenger 605 to its managed fleet in the Middle East, bringing the total number of aircraft it manages in the region to 14, including a Lineage 1000, Falcon 2000LXS and six other Bombardier aircraft including a Global XRS.

Middle East operations are shared between ExecuJet's facilities at Dubai International and Al Maktoum International airports. With an FBO apiece, either airport can be used by ExecuJet customers.

Executive VP of aviation services Mike Berry comments: “The addition of this Challenger 605 to our fleet demonstrates our customers' continued confidence in us for global aircraft management expertise, alongside our proven record in providing the best maintenance, handling, safety and service.

“It has been a successful year for ExecuJet. For the second consecutive year, our Middle East team won Business Aviation Operator of the Year at the Aviation Business Awards. At Dubai International airport, we recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of our FBO and, with the announcement of our new shared VIP terminal at Al Maktoum, we look forward to welcoming even more customers to Dubai.”

ExecuJet's fleet benefits from an established global FBO network, which ensures customers receive competitive fuel, maintenance and service costs. Clients are also sup-ported by ExecuJet's MRO facilities.
