Arab Wings recently announced its partnership with Cessna Aircraft Company adding the "Citation Sovereign" to its fleet in the second half of 2009.
On this occasion Mr. Ahmad Abu Ghazaleh, the General Manager of Arab Wings said "With the addition of a mid-size Citation Sovereign and CJ1+ light jet, we are adding capacity at both ends of our fleet, and have chosen the appropriate aircrafts that are tried and tested in the region's demanding conditions," said Mr. Abu Ghazaleh.
Mr. Trevor Esling, Vice President International Sales added: "Arab Wings was the first to articulate a clear vision of the potential of business aviation in the Middle East. We are very pleased to continue playing a role in the company's successful expansion."
The Jordanian and first established executive air charter operator in the Middle East, Arab Wings, ordered a new $17 million Cessna Citation Sovereign for delivery in the second half of 2009.
