Royal Jet, a leading private charter company, has won the ‘Middle East’s Leading Private Jet Charter’ honour at the World Travel Awards 2015 recently.

It was voted by travel and tourism professionals worldwide and recognises the commitment to excellence that the company has demonstrated over the past 12 months, said a statement.

Fahad Wali, chief commercial officer at Royal Jet accepted the award during the presentation ceremony at the Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach.

Captain Patrick Gordon, acting president and chief executive officer of Royal Jet, said: “We are proud to once again be named the region’s leading private jet charter company. This accolade is thanks to our team of dedicated employees who work hard to ensure that our clients always receive a bespoke, luxury VIP experience and that Royal Jet remains at the forefront of the private aviation industry.”

In order to meet the growing demands of the industry, Royal Jet is undertaking a fleet replacement and expansion programme that will increase the fleet to 20 aircraft by the year 2020 at a cost of $700 million.

The programme started in October last year and in the last seven months, Royal Jet has taken delivery of two Bombardier Global 5000 business jets and one Bombardier Learjet 60 XR business jet.
