Gama Aviation has officially opened a Business Aviation Centre at Sharjah Airport in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with the facility’s first aircraft arriving on 3 February. The company invested over USD 60 million into the Fixed Base Operator (FBO), opting for the site due to its strategic placement as an entryway to Dubai and the Northern Emirates.
“This is a hugely proud moment for Gama Aviation and for everyone who has worked to bring the Sharjah Business Aviation Centre to life,” said Tom Murphy, Managing Director of FBO Services. “The scale of investment, the quality of the facility and the dedication of the team behind it are exceptional. From day one, our focus has been on delivering a fully functioning FBO that genuinely supports operators, owners and crews — and seeing aircraft arrive, depart and move seamlessly into the hangar is a powerful demonstration of that.”
Gama says that the Sharjah Business Aviation Centre provides an attractive alternative for business aviation operators, with modern infrastructure, direct airside access, and no slot constraints. More information about the site can be found here. The company also has FBO operations in Glasgow and Jersey.
“The Sharjah Business Aviation Centre is a fantastic example of what can be achieved when investment, culture and operational thinking come together,” commented Evie Freeman, Group Director of Client Experience. “Every element of this facility has been designed with the client and crew experience in mind. It provides a strong foundation for delivering a consistent, high-quality experience and building long-term relationships with operators and partners across the region.”
