Thanks to rapid growth in the Indian economy, UAS International Trip Support (Booth K073) has opened a new office in New Delhi to expand the company’s services in the Indian subcontinent. Last year, UAS opened offices in Hong Kong and Beijing, and these joined the network of UAS facilities, which include continental headquarters in Houston, Texas; Johannesburg and Dubai (Hong Kong is also a headquarters facility). The company also operates regional offices in Lagos and Nairobi, as well as the new Beijing office, plus ground-handling operations in 37 countries. The new India office is located at Indira Gandhi International Airport.
“It’s a great time for the Indian economy; the growing vitality of the entire subcontinent is clear,” said Mohammed Husary, UAS co-founder and executive president. “It’s also a rapidly growing business jet market. Naturally, UAS will be there, on the ground, to meet the demand. This regional office guarantees greater, more customized services in the region and even better peace of mind for clients.”
The Delhi office is lead by Vinay Garg, UAS regional director, Indian subcontinent. The office handles domestic and international flights. “Clear communication and truly understanding a client’s needs is the backbone of successful business aviation and something we excel at,” he said. “Whether you need to get to Mumbai or Islamabad on urgent business, the Maldives or Sri Lanka for a well-earned break or transit through Bangladesh, we are here to provide the best service possible, as quickly as possible,” he said.
UAS plans to add more airport supervisors and customized products in India.
Fuel Partner
In other UAS news, the company and fuel distributor Epic Aviation have fully launched their new partnership under which Epic’s customers can purchase fuel at special rates from all worldwide locations supported by UAS. Customized UAS pricing has been incorporated into Epic’s fuel purchase system and these rates are available at more than 3,000 FBOs and airports.
“This is an important step for this fuel program and great news for Epic cardholders,” Husary said. “They no longer have to thumb through a stack of credit cards, trying to determine the best method of payment overseas, plus they get the added value of enhanced trip support and expertise from an established network.” o
