Gama Aviation has achieved a major milestone in the construction of its new business aviation centre facility at Sharjah International Airport. Designed to accommodate a range of business jet types, helicopters and future eVTOL air systems, the business aviation centre will include a 14,000 m² air-conditioned premium hangar, a 36,000 m² dedicated aircraft parking apron, a world-class VVIP terminal, optimised fast access to aircraft for owners and flight crew and fast road connections to DIFC and downtown. Additionally, the facility will feature enhanced in-house MRO capabilities.
In the interim, Gama Aviation’s existing facility at Sharjah International Airport remains operational, offering business jet travellers significant advantages such as a six-minute taxi time, zero slot restrictions, and unrivalled connectivity to aircraft for passengers and flight crew.
Tom Murphy, Managing Director, FBO, commented: “We believe what we will offer in Sharjah will be unique to the other facilities available in the region. Over forty years of operational experience has been synthesised into developing a Business Aviation Centre that offers a highly personal, tailored experience to discerning owners, their travelling associates, and flight crews. Sharjah was the location of the first airport in the UAE, and we are working with our partners at the Airport Authority to position this facility as a key Business Aviation access point to the UAE for those who wish to travel with the utmost discretion.”
