Charter & Fractional
Asian Opportunity Dawns For Comlux

The past 12 months have seen Comlux increase its Asian footprint with aircraft management contracts and a high-profile assignment to complete the interior of a large-cabin jet on order by a major automobile group from the region. On display at the ABACE show this week in Shanghai are an Airbus ACJ318 and a Bombardier Global Express operated by the Swiss-based business aviation services group. The company is also introducing its new Chinese name, “Yi Hua,” meaning “comfort and luxury.”

The ACJ318 is based in Shanghai from where it is operated on a purely private basis for its owners Jong Hwa Chin, chairman of the Minth Group, and his son William China, who is president of Wilko Creative Inc. Comlux’s increasingly global management fleet also includes an ACJ319 based in Macau that is available for charter. In addition to its base in Macau, the company also has a commercial office in Hong Kong and is preparing to transfer one of its senior executives there to lead its further expansion into the Asia Pacific market.
