Western Aviation, Dubai based Aircraft Charter Service Company posts 21% increase in air charter sales turnover during 1st Quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. This echoes the sentiments of aviation industry forecast for a strong growth in 2010.

After the aviation industry took a strong beating in 2009 following the economic crisis, it has been a slow and steady recovery since then. However the aviation industry and economy as a whole is showing positive signs in 2010 and everyone is optimistic about growth in 2010, so is Western Aviation which records around 14% increase in number of charter flights for 1Q of 2010 compared to same period in 2009.

"As a result of recession there have been a lot of mergers, consolidations and takeovers in the global market, which is forcing major organizations to revamp their business strategies and look for partnerships and associations elsewhere, as a result of which top executives have to fly a lot beyond their traditional boundaries to forge these new alliances and ventures there by driving the strong requirement for private charter flights." says Imran Ahmed, Marketing & Charter Sales Executive for Western Aviation.

As it is a well know fact that schedule, privacy and efficiency are top most priorities for busy executives who are on the move, no option other than chartering a private jet offers this flexibility. "So when it comes to business travel Private Jet Chartering is the best option for the executives who want to reach any destination at any point of time. Infact to cover multiple destinations in shortest possible time, executives heavily rely on the Business Jet Charters, as this kind of flexibility is often impossible by any other mode of transport", adds Ms. Kaschmira Kasad, Charter Sales Manager for Western Aviation.

Western Aviation has been offering private air charter service to business community in Middle East, Europe, Africa, Asia, Russia and CIS regions since 5 years. With this growing experience aircraft charter professionals in Western Aviation can arrange charter flights to any destination in less than 3 Hrs notice as they have mastered the art of jet chartering over the years.
