Lineage 1000 of Al Jaber Aviation Company has performed 10 hours flight
Business aviation operator Al Jaber Aviation (AJA), which is based in Abu Dhabi, performed the longest in its history commercial flight. 19-seater business jet Lineage 1000 (tail number A6-AJI) has flew from Beijing to Al Bateen Executive Airport in 10 hours 4 minutes and has covered the distance of 6,000 km and made one technical landing.
Currently, its own fleet of business aircrafts operator consists of Airbus A318-112 (CJ) Elite, two Embraer Lineage 1000 and Hawker 800 XP. Until February 2016 the operator will receive at least another two Airbus Corporate Jets and one Lineage 1000 (in management).
At the end of 2014 the Al Jaber Aviation Company has announced a project to create the first VIP air taxi in the Middle East, and in 2016 AJA plans to enter the European market. The project, named Sky Limo, based on the business model of the classic air taxi operator. However, according to the company officials, it will be in a high demand in the region of a number of reasons. The main reason is the desire of CEOs to move in the comfortable conditions without any extra cost to rent the “expensive” business jets that dominate in the Gulf region.
