A new Challenger 605 has just joined the fleet of Comlux Aviation. Registered under Comlux's Malta AOC and based in Madrid, the aircraft will be available for charter through OneAbove, the charter sales division of Comlux.

Comlux's Challenger features a cabin interior composed of executive seating with two club-two seats and a lounge area with a comfortable sofa and another set of club-two seats. Its positioning in Madrid allows non-stop routes to any place in Europe and the Mediterranean region, as well as to the east coast of the US.

Andrea Zanetto, CEO Comlux Aviation, says: “I am very pleased to add another Challenger aircraft to our charter fleet. Its size, range and ideal positioning from Spain match perfectly with our VIP charter demand from Europe.

"We have accumulated 15 years of experience in managing Challengers and Globals, and the entry into service with this new aircraft has been extremely smooth. We are looking forward to developing our customer base in the Mediterranean region and in Spain in particular. With our commercial AOCs in both Malta and San Marino, we are now offering a greater choice to our customers willing to register in the European region.”
