Abu Dhabi Airports has awarded Jetex a concession to manage and operate the VIP Terminals at Al Bateen Executive Airport (OMAD) in the UAE capital. Since 2008, the airport has operated as an executive jet facility, focusing on fast and efficient turnarounds, no holding patterns or slot restrictions, and short taxi times, Jetex said. Located in the heart of the city, OMAD provides convenient access to Abu Dhabi’s financial, tourist, and entertainment destinations.

Jamal Al Dhaheri, managing director and CEO of Abu Dhabi Airports, said he hoped the move would reinvigorate the “tailor-made” business aviation airport. “As a dedicated FBO operator well versed with the needs and requirements of this specific market segment, we look forward to collaborating with Jetex and successfully delivering great value to all our passengers,” he said.
