Recently launched Romania-based air charter provider Dokia Air has placed a Dassault Falcon 2000LXS into service. The aircraft, a widebody business jet carrying up to 10 passengers, is based in Bucharest.

“This is a big step up for Romanian charter, with a modern, highly capable and very comfortable business jet,” says CEO Florin Susanu. “The Falcon 2000LXS is the first factory-new aircraft in the country. Its optimised design, reliability, short-field capability, as well as low operating costs, are much appreciated by operators and customers.”

The Falcon 2000LXS, like all other Falcons, can fly on sustainable aviation fuel, significantly reducing its environmental impact.

“Dassault Aviation’s unique DNA was also part of the final selection decision,” Susanu adds. “Inherited from its military experience, the company has always integrated the most advanced technological features into its business aircraft, bringing more safety, reliability and passenger comfort.

“Thanks to its optimised ramp image and superior weight design, the Falcon 2000LXS allows for unmatched performance out of challenging airfields even in adverse conditions, flying several legs without refuelling at the lowest operating cost, which will obviously be very profitable for our customers.”

With a 4,000nm range, the Falcon 2000LXS connects all major European city-pairs and routes to the Middle East and North Africa non-stop. From Nice, it can reach the East Coast of the United States.

The charter company expects flights to the Greek islands to be popular in summer and to ski locations in Austria, France, Italy and Switzerland in winter.

The Dokia Air Falcon 2000LXS’s beige cabin features comfortably wide executive seats, glossy worktables, dark wood panelling and a true dining-group area, which Susanu describes as the most refined interior available in the region.
