Jet Aviation has been granted an air operator certificate (AOC) by Malta's Civil Aviation Directorate, starting flight operations using a Boeing BBJ once the approval was confirmed on December 8. An Embraer Legacy 600 is to be added "in the coming weeks," said the Zurich, Switzerland-based company, which already holds Swiss and German AOCs for its operations based at Zurich and Cologne, respectively.
