Empire Aviation Group has recently inducted a Boeing Business Jet into its fleet of managed business jets and is already managing and operating the aircraft on behalf of the owner from its base in Dubai. The BBJ is an ultra-large cabin, long range aircraft suited to business, private, charter, corporate and head-of-state operations.

Since launching in Dubai in 2007, Empire Aviation has expanded operations globally, inducted more than 70 aircraft on behalf of owners as well as managing many of the aircraft (the company currently has 20 business jets under management), introduced innovations such as the Luxury Partner Program and now has AOCs or equivalent in three countries. In 2021, the company was appointed by Gulfstream as the international sales representative for business aircraft sales activities in India.

Founder and managing director Paras P Dhamecha says: “Empire Aviation has successfully developed into a reputable and award winning global private aviation service provider to aircraft owners and charter clients, thanks to the team and the support of all our partners. There is no doubt that we have benefitted from Dubai and the UAE’s position as an international aviation hub with world class infrastructure, facilities and regulators. Our journey continues and the exciting addition of the BBJ quite literally adds a new dimension.”

Over the last 15 years, Empire Aviation has managed aircraft based across the Middle East, Asia and Africa, including business jets from most of the leading aircraft manufacturers, as well as helicopters, seaplanes and air ambulances. It provides all the major services associated with private aviation including aircraft management, aircraft sales, charter and CAMO.
