Jet Aviation’s expansion in the Middle East continues, highlighted by the recent grand opening of its new terminal in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where the company has had an FBO since 1983. The opening ceremony, held earlier this month, brought guests from 10 countries to the 32,292-sq-ft facility, which was developed as a joint venture with Saudi partners under the Jet Aviation Saudi Arabia banner.

Peter Edwards, chairman Jet Aviation Saudi Arabia, called the new facility “a tribute to our past and future success,” noting that the company executed almost 12,400 movements last year and is committed to “growing these numbers in coming years.” Jet Aviation Saudi Arabia also operates an FBO in Riyadh. Jet Aviation was the first foreign business aviation services company to have an FBO in Saudi Arabia, having established its Riyadh facility in 1979.
