Gama Aviation has introduced a Global Express for long range charter. Marketed through its Sharjah office and operated by its US associate business Gama Aviation LLC, the former Bombardier demonstrator can transport up to 13 passengers and has a fully equipped galley and crew rest area. The cabin includes three seating zones: a forward club four, a conference and dining area and a divan facing two individual seats in the aft cabin.

“It is a very exciting time for us,” says commercial manager Oliver Hewson. “We now have an ultra-long range jet to work alongside our existing Legacy 600, Learjet 60 and Learjet 60XR portfolio in the Middle East, which gives us tremendous in-fleet flexibility for our clients' needs. We have been monitoring demand for this type of service and believe there is a gap to be filled.”
