Gama Aviation FZE continues to witness strong growth from Sharjah International Airport. The company reported a 70% increase in number of business aviation movements in 2013 compared to 2012.
The regional arm is on schedule to unveil its brand new dedicated FBO Terminal this year. During the second quarter it hopes to have completed new passenger and crew lounges, which have been designed in line with requirements of discerning Middle Eastern clientele.
“The new facility will bring huge benefits for crew members, including rest areas, briefing space and convenient ramp access,” said Richard Lineveldt, general manager MENA for Gama Aviation. “Clients are increasingly attracted by our service, business jet parking and hangar space, as well as the fact that there are no slot restrictions in place for the airport which operates 24/7 along with competitive rates.”
The company has also rolled out a staggered hiring strategy since the start of 2014 in order to ensure it has the capacity in May to maintain its service levels. The staffing levels at the Sharjah FBO are planned to effectively double by May 2014. Gama Aviation is also working with the airport to secure additional, ground support equipment.
