Al Jaber Aviation will be based at Al Bateen Executive Airport in Abu Dhabi.

The VIP aviation provider has signed a 10-year leasing deal with the airport’s owner and operator Abu Dhabi Airports Company (ADAC).

The deal makes Al Jaber Aviation the largest tenant to sign up at Al Bateen since ADAC took over the management of the airport in 2009.

The company is expected to move into its new airport offices within two months.

Al Jaber Aviation CEO Dr. Mark Pierotti, said: “With AJA planning to further build our aircraft fleet, over the coming years, we recognise that Al Bateen combines a strategic location with fully equipped operational, administrative as well as maintenance facilities managed by ADAC - the largest operator of airports in the UAE.

“Furthermore, basing AJA at Al Bateen will help us continue to deliver world-class services to our elite guests with fast-on-fast-off processing; an advantage that we could not obtain in other international or larger airports in the region.”

ADAC chief commercial officer Huraiz Al Mur bin Huraiz, added: “We are pleased to welcome Al Jaber Aviation as ADAC’s first and now largest tenant at Al Bateen Executive Airport. The deal we are signing today is a clear indication of the growing importance of VIP and private aviation in the UAE capital.”
