Sky Prime pledges Gold sponsorship to Saudi show
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has an ambitious vision for business aviation that it wishes to implement by the year 2030. The first Saudi International Airshow at Thumamah airport next month will get the ball rolling.

Sky Prime Aviation Services has been named as a gold sponsor for the Saudi International Airshow, which will debut from 12 to 14 March at Thumamah airport in Riyadh. The Riyadh-based operator has a fleet of executive jets and provides its customers with VIP charter, aircraft management and other aviation services.

CEO Mamdouh Mokhtar says: “We are proud to be a strong ally in cooperation with the Saudi Airshow, as well as the civil aviation authority and all the agencies operating in the Saudi aviation industry. We aim to provide services in accordance with the highest international standards to meet all the needs required by this vital sector.

“In line with the Saudi Vision 2030, we look forward to leading the aviation sector, exemplified by our sponsorship of this important event. It also aligns with our development strategy, which focuses on gaining the trust of customers in all of our aviation services.”

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA), which currently oversees economic and safety regulation, air navigation services and the operations of Saudi Arabia's 27 airports, has awarded Sky Prime operator certificates under GACA Part 121 Unscheduled (Commercial), GACA Part 121 Special Unscheduled (Commercial), GACA Part 125 Private Operations and GACA Part 145 repair station. Sky Prime is also the first Saudi private aviation company to obtain Part 151 for providing ground handling services.
