Global Jet has expanded its charter sales team in Dubai to serve the growing regional market. The Dubai office, led by Thomas David, offers charter services, aircraft management, and aircraft sales and acquisitions. 

According to Global Jet, its aircraft management department is experiencing “unprecedented growth,” having signed up 15 new contracts with owners since early 2024. It recently added two Gulfstream G200s and several Gulfstream 500/600s and G650ERs; a Dassault Falcon 900LX and Falcon 7X; and a Bombardier Global Express XRS to the fleet.

Of these aircraft, two G200s and a G650ER, Falcon 900LX, Falcon 7X, and Global Express are available for charter.Between now and April, it plans to induct a Falcon 2000LXS; Global 6000 and Global 7500; G650ER and three G700s; and an Embraer Praetor 500.

The company said its move to open an office in Dubai last year led to the successful launch of charter services on its Airbus ACJ320. The VIP narrowbody is one of a few of its type available for charter and can accommodate up to 31 passengers. Global Jet has also introduced a rare VVIP-configured Boeing 747-800 to its Middle Eastern fleet. 

Established in 1999, Global Jet manages 69 aircraft for private and commercial operations for high-net-worth individuals and private corporations worldwide. The operator, which claims to be one of the largest in the private aviation sector, has a diverse fleet with over 35 different aircraft types, including 35 available for charter.
