Jet Aviation has expanded its operational footprint in the Middle East after receiving authorization from Saudi Arabia’s General Authority of Civil Aviation to provide ground handling services at Yanbu Prince Abdul Mohsin Bin Abdulaziz Airport. Jet Aviation Yanbu operations will provide passenger and baggage handling, immigration and customs clearance, transportation, hotel, and catering coordination, refueling, and aircraft cleaning to all business aviation customers in the region.

In addition, the company will provide 24/7 support for employees of Saudi Aramco, the country’s nationalized petroleum company based in Dharan, as they transit through the airport.

“We have experienced increasing demand for passenger assistance at Prince Abdul Mohsin Bin Abdulaziz Regional Airport and have expanded our service offering to ensure clients receive properly coordinated ground handling service that meets their needs,” said Khaled Al-Ghamdi, Jet Aviation’s in-country general manager.
