FAI Aviation Group has entered into an exclusive partnership with German sports club FC Bayern München (FCB). As an exclusive partner, FAI will be responsible for providing business jet transport to FCB throughout the 2024-25 football season. The partnership unites two established brands and follows FAI’s support during the COVID pandemic, when it provided air ambulance services to the club.

Siegfried Axtmann, group chairman and founder, FAI Aviation Group says: “FAI is immensely proud to become an exclusive partner of FC Bayern München, one of the most successful and iconic soccer teams in the world. Business aviation is a regular go-to for international professional soccer teams, delivering efficiency, time saving and discrete air travel from private air terminals at hub airports or dedicated business airports. We wish it every success this soccer season and look forward to serving the club as its official exclusive business aviation partner in what we hope will be a successful collaboration.”

Michael Diederich, FCB deputy CEO, adds: “We are very happy to have concluded a cooperation agreement with FAI Aviation Group. This partner stands for absolute professionalism, efficiency and enormous quality in terms of services. We look forward to working closely together.”

FAI also confirmed its renewal of its successful partnership with McLaren Formula 1, in December last year. Now in its fifth year as official partner of the McLaren team, FAI will continue to provide executive aviation services.
