Vista Global Holding (Booth M91) arrives at EBACE 2022 on the heels of major acquisitions in Europe (Air Hamburg in February) and the U.S. (Jet Edge in March). The moves are the latest in a two-year string of roll-ups engineered to further the Dubai company’s goal of “providing the most comprehensive range of flying solutions in private aviation,” said Vista founder and chairman Thomas Flohr. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.

The jets the two charter-management companies operate will augment the owned and operated charter fleets of Vista brands VistaJet, headquartered in Malta, and U.S.-based XO. Once the Air Hamburg and Jet Edge acquisitions close, these additions will bring Vista’s global fleet to some 350 aircraft, predominantly super-midsize, large-cabin, and ultra-long-range business jets.
