Luxaviation delivers strategic fleet to provide ultimate customer choice

Luxaviation Group is providing its customers with the most efficient private aviation arrangements through its 250-strong fleet.

Luxaviation’s fleet is strategically placed in expanding and emerging markets, where the demand for private aviation is growing or the economy is indicating growth in the near future. This increasing presence on the global business aviation scene will keep Luxaviation at the forefront of the industry and ensure customers receive group-wide consistency in safety and exceptional service worldwide.

Within the fleet, aircraft type ranges from the entry-level Cessna Citation Mustang up to Gulfstream 650s and a Boeing 737-600 airliner, giving business and leisure travellers much-needed choice, so they can select the most suitable aircraft for their trip. ExecuJet’s helicopter charter in the UK and Africa adds additional options for travellers, ideal for short flights to destinations with no airports such as hotels, sporting arenas and remote locations.

The heads of the Luxaviation Group entities gathered at EBACE in Geneva last week.

For those wanting to travel very long distances and as part of a large group, the Luxaviation fleet offers 19 Global Express aircraft, 15 Dassault Falcon 7xs, 12 Global 5000s and 10 Global 6000s, amongst others, to choose from. For smaller groups of people, Luxaviation’s fleet offers 14 Falcon 2000s and, thanks to Luxaviation UK’s two latest additions, the Group now has 13 Legacy 600/650 aircraft.

Patrick Hansen, CEO of Luxaviation, says: “We are pleased to have reached this impressive number of aircraft within our fleet. Operating a large fleet has achieved important efficiencies and improvements which ultimately strengthen our service offering to customers. Along with operational excellence, the size of our fleet brings together a class-leading team of aviation professionals with more than 100 years of industry experience.

“More aircraft means more flexibility and enhanced service so we can confidently meet our customers’ wishes; the breadth of aircraft type translates to a greater global reach, flying our customers closer to where they need to be and maximising private air travel as a time-saving tool. These sorts of advantages will remain a cornerstone of our business success and we will continue to expand our fleet to ensure our customers can rely on us.”

The Luxaviation Group is the second largest operator of corporate aircraft in the world. It manages 250 aircraft under the most stringent safety standards. The company’s commercial fleet is operated under the regulatory umbrella of 14 regional civil aviation issued air operating certificates (AOCs). The group manages 23 world-class FBO facilities and 14 maintenance centres worldwide, certified to work on most business jets. Luxaviation currently employs over 1,500 employees worldwide.
