Two business aviation companies in Africa have created joint venture BFK Aviation to drive industry development on the continent and beyond as the appeal of private flying gains increasing traction in emerging markets. In bridging the gap between Luanda and Addis Ababa, the tie-up between Angolan management and charter operator Bestfly and Ethiopia’s Krimson, a provider of flight support also engaged in developing sub-Saharan FBOs, gives Africa new options outside traditional business aviation growth centers in Morocco, South Africa, and Nigeria.
In a sign of its international ambition, the joint venture has signed a partnership agreement with Xen Aviation, a Georgetown, Guyana-based operator and aviation services provider. “BFK Aviation will support the needs of Xen Aviation’s expanding flight and ground services for current and future operations,” it said.
