Trained personnel will provide on-site dispatch services 24/7, including arranging overflight and landing permits, fuel purchasing, support for the European emission trading system (EU ETS) support and continuous flight monitoring.

“There is an increasing demand for dispatch services in the Middle East,” said Peter Brandle, deputy general manager of Switzerland-based Jet Aviation’s aircraft division in Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia. “Extending our service delivery through the Dubai FBO allows us to better serve our customers based in Dubai and in the region,” added Brandle.

“Adding dispatch services to our portfolio helps meet our goal of fulfilling all of our customers’ provisioning needs under one roof,” said Philippe Gerard, FBO director of Jet Aviation Dubai.
