Bizav Faces Challenges in Casting Its Net Across Asia
Not without reason, China continues to dominate expectations for business aviation growth in Asia
Growing demand for its charter jet card has spurred growth in Asia Jet’s Hong Kong-based fleet, which includes this Gulfstream G200. Importantly, the aircraft are registered in mainland China (signified by the B- tail number), which means that they can operate freely in the country.

Not without reason, China continues to dominate expectations for business aviation growth in Asia, but the continent as a whole presents a vast if complex opportunity for the industry. Personal wealth is in the ascendency there, with Asians having officially overtaken Europeans in the latest Forbes magazine list of billionaires.

Beyond China and its special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau, business aviation buying power is building in many parts of southeast Asia, including Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam and Cambodia. At the same time, there is still rising demand right across the Pacific Rim from Japan in the north to Australasia in the south.
