A-Group Visits MEBAA

Russian business aviation services specialist A-Group (Booth 566) is marking its 10th anniversary this year with appearance at the MEBAA show in Dubai. The company, which has FBOs at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo and St Petersburg’s Pulkovo airports, is looking to help Middle Eastern private aviation clients enjoy convenient access to Russia, the Commonwealth of Independent States and Europe.

A-Group’s VIP terminal facilities are located in two of Russia’s largest international airports. The buildings, which enjoy direct airside access, feature restaurants and cafes with top chefs as well as meeting rooms with the capability to conduct videoconferencing.

The FBOs offer extensive hangar and apron space, as well as ground handling and deicing equipment. There are also helipads located near the terminals for customers who wish to get closer to their final destination in a helicopter.

Flight support at both facilities includes ground handling services such as aircraft cabin cleaning, aircraft towing and oxygen/nitrogen services. The FBOs can help with crew transfers, hotel accommodations for the crew and visa arrangements. A-Group staff also can make all fueling arrangements.

The Pulkovo facility was built in 1951 by Soviet architect Aleksandr Gegello. Throughout its reconstruction, the original architecture was preserved and many exceptional details were restored. The Sheremetyevo terminal is a modern design.
