Gama Aviation, currently in the midst of constructing its new business aviation center at Sharjah International Airport in the UAE, is announcing the completion of a 36,000-sq-m parking apron at the site.
“We believe what we will offer in Sharjah will be unique to the other facilities available in the region," said Gama Aviation managing director Tom Murphy. "More than 40 years of operational experience has been synthesized into developing a business aviation center that offers a highly personal, tailored, experience to discerning owners, their traveling 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.”
“This project is a strategic focal point for the group and is one of two major construction projects the group is undertaking to improve business aviation facilities at primary international airports," added Gama Aviation CEO Marwan Khalek. "With this development, we are proud to partner with the Sharjah Airport Authority and recognize the important role of the airport to support the significant developments in the Emirate of Sharjah, and as a gateway to Dubai and the northern Emirates.”
The new center is being designed to facilitate a range of business jet types, helicopters, and eVTOL air systems.
Additional plans for the site include an air-conditioned premium hangar, a discreet VVIP terminal, fast access to aircraft for owners and flight crew, quick road connections to Dubai International Financial Centre and downtown, and enhanced in-house MRO capabilities.
