  • Execujet Set for Expansion in Dubai and Jeddah. Execujet Middle East
    50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news EXECUJET SET FOR EXPANSION IN DUBAI AND JEDDAH News / Business aviation Image not found or type unknown ExecuJet Middle East this month marks its 16th anniversary with plans to further expand its presence here in Dubai. The company, which is part of the Swiss-based ExecuJet Aviation group, also is announcing plans to expand its operations in Saudi Arabia with a new FBO in Jeddah. © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited. 1 With a main base at Dubai International Airport, for the past two years ExecuJet has also operated a temporary base at Dubai World Central, or Dubai South as the massive new airport has been rebranded. It has now secured land for a permanent facility and hopes to start construction soon with a view to opening during the first quarter of 2017. In the meantime, it may opt to take up another temporary tenancy in the airport’s general aviation terminal starting next year. “We would love to keep both bases [i.e Dubai International and Dubai South], but it has been made clear [by the Dubai authorities] that Dubai South is going to be the main long-term home for general aviation,” ExecuJet Middle East vice president Mike Berry told AIN. That said, with some low-cost carriers such as FlyDubai moving operations to Dubai South, this could temporarily relieve some capacity pressure at Dubai International. For the past 10 years, MRO has been the main focus of ExecuJet Middle East’s business plan.

  • Niall Olver, CEO of Execujet Aviation Group, Talks to Jet
    WINGS ExecuJet provides global FBO services through its bases in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Zurich, Berlin, Paris Valencia and Dubai EXECUJET AVIATION GROUP ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS NIALL OLVER, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE EXECUJET AVIATION GROUP, SHARES HIS JOURNEY WITH THE coMPANY AND WHAT HE IS PLANNING FOR THE YEARS AHEAD. Q: You started in aviation by selling Learjets. How did this foster your career? I started in aviation when ExecuJet was embryonic. In the beginning, we not only sold aircraft, but also turnkey solutions. This meant that the learning curve was steep, and the lessons learnt served us well as we entered new international markets as the fundamentals are the same. Q: In 1994 you took over ExecuJet’s operations in Johannesburg. What was the private aviation situation like back then in South Africa? The South African market was, and still is, surprisingly active. At the time, Bombardier’s market share was low, and the ethics of the industry at large were not great. We have been fortunate to have been instrumental in improving both and, in the course of which, learnt a lot and built some life-long relationships. 26 JETGALA Q: Looking towards newer markets, how is the scene shaping up for ExecuJet in the Asia-Pacific, and why is it so? ExecuJet has been operating in the Asia-Pacific since 2000 when we opened our first facility in Sydney. Since then, we have expanded our services to Melbourne (Australia), Wellington (New Zealand), Beijing (China), Tianjin (China), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and Singapore, identifying the increased demand for business aviation over the last decade.
