Global Jet adds to its host of heavy jets
A fleet of more than 85 by the end of the year - that is the target set by Swiss operator Global Jet, and with five added already this year that leaves only ten to go. Offices in Monaco and Moscow have played key parts in the company's spectacular growth.

Swiss-headquartered Global Jet expects to add at least 10 further aircraft to its fleet before the year is out, having inducted a Moscow-based Global XRS and four other jets since the beginning of 2018. Its total fleet now numbers more than 75, comprising 28 different types. "With all the current and new jets available, this is already promising to be an amazing year in terms of charter hours and revenue," comments charter sales director Leonard Bertholet.

In response to this growth, Global Jet has opened a charter sales office in Monaco, which will be headed up by recently appointed charter sales executive Nils Lovag. A large number of Global Jet aircraft pass through the Riviera during the high season, so his presence will add to the operator's service offering.

Madrid airport is now also home to a Global Jet office and three aircraft, and the company has appointed Alan Sanz Aubert to bolster the team. Global Jet Moscow, which is one of the operator's busiest offices, has seen three further charter sales reps join the fold. "We have moved to modernised offices in the centre of Moscow," states business development director Evgeny Klochkov.

"We have enormous market experience and a solid charter fleet; our attention to detail goes far beyond expectations and it's much appreciated by our local clientele."

Finally, the Global Jet office in Paris is increasing its fleet with a CJ4, a Falcon 2000, a Legacy 600, a Falcon 7X, an Airbus A318 and a Boeing BBJ3.

Aircraft sales director Hardy Sohanpal adds: "Our aircraft sales and acquisitions department in Monaco has been extremely successful. In terms of fresh sales, a Gulfstream 650, a Global 5000, a Global XRS and a Falcon 7X have been recently sold thanks to our expertise. Our primary advantage lies in our in-depth knowledge of this business. With our experience, long standing relationships with the main manufacturers, efficient networks, administrative and technical expertise, we assist our customers every step of the way by optimising their resources."

With EBACE in Geneva fast approaching, marketing coordinator Margo De Kalbermatten describes what booth visitors can expect: "We have increased our presence and created a unique concept for visitors. Geneva being our home base, and in light of the fact that we have stunning offices, we couldn't miss the opportunity to bring our guests to our facilities via direct shuttle transfers from the show. Our Michelin starred chef and inflight cabin service will offer a taste of the service we provide above the clouds."
