Royal Jet, the Abu Dhabi-headquartered international luxury VIP aircraft charter company, is to host the inaugural Middle East Business Aviation (MEBA) conference – the first of its kind to run in conjunction with a Dubai air show.

 “As a prime mover in bringing about this initiative, and as one of the region’s leading operators of business jets, it is essential Royal Jet’s influential name and branding is highly visible at this important conference,” said Ammar Balkar, vice-president sales and marketing, Royal Jet. MEBA will be held at the Le Méridien Dubai on November 19, 2005, prior to the opening of Dubai 2005, the 9th International Aerospace Exhibition. The keynote address is to be delivered by HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, president, Department of Civil Aviation, Government of Dubai.
 “We have received strong interest in this inaugural event from the entire business jet spectrum including manufacturers, operators and brokers,” explained Clive Richardson, chief executive, Aerospace Division, Fairs & Exhibitions (F&E). “The enrolment of Royal Jet as MEBA host is a major plus for the event as it will attract some of the region’s most prominent VIP charter and business jet end users as well as aircraft manufacturers.”
