10-12 DECEMBER 2018 DWC, AIRSHOW SITE LEADING THE WAY FOR BUSINESS AVIATION WWW.MEBAA.AERO WELCOME MEBAA Show 2018 is held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum President of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, Chairman of Dubai Airports, and Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group. The Middle East and North Africa Business Aviation Association (MEBAA) is proud to invite you to join us at the largest business aviation event in the Middle East - the MEBAA Show 2018. As we celebrated the association’s tenth anniversary at the 2016 show I was amazed to reflect on how much has been accomplished on behalf of our members and of business aviation in the region and beyond. These achievements are testament to the importance of the event – it provides the only platform in the Middle East for the business aviation community to network, learn more about the latest industry developments, to discuss challenges and opportunities and of course to do business. The MEBAA Show 2018 promises to continue this legacy – as the eighth edition of the show takes form it is rightly seen as a must-attend event for anyone involved in the industry. It continues to attract the brightest and best companies and being a part of this event will give you face-to-face access with key high level decision makers at the heart of the ever-growing global aviation hub in Dubai. Spending time with our members and future members allows me an unparalleled opportunity to understand more about their business and translate that into goals for the association over the coming years. Together we can continue to drive business aviation’s growth and profile across the region. I look forward to seeing you at the MEBAA Show 2018 from 10-12 December 2018 at DWC, Airshow Site - a show that always attracts the most prominent names and companies in regional business aviation – including yours.

The Middle East is a particularly important market for Airbus Corpo- rate Jets; about one third of our current corporate jets are flying in the region.” David Velupillai, Marketing Director, Airbus Corporate Jets “Over the last ten years we have seen fantastic growth in the region, and have been able to expand our services to clients. We also see a lot of clients and prospects from India and South East Asia, in addition to Europe and the United States here at the MEBAA Show and are very positive about our experience here.” Ruedi Kraft, Vice President of Market Development, Jet Aviation “We decided to exhibit at the MEBAA Show for the first time this year having attended as visitors in 2014. It’s been a great show; we have seen the top of the business aviation industry represented here. It has been a very positive experience and we look forward to returning in two year’s time.” Chiara Dorigotti, Manager, Milano Linate Airport “This is our first time exhibiting at the MEBAA Show, the very first appearance of the Hondajet in the Middle East.
