Gama Aviation Completes Major Milestone in Sharjah Business Aviation Centre

In a recent press release, Gama Aviation announced the completion of a significant milestone in the development of its new Business Aviation Centre at Sharjah International Airport. The facility, which is set to open in Q2 2025, aims to provide extensive business aviation infrastructure and support at Sharjah International Airport.

The new Business Aviation Centre is designed to accommodate various types of business jets, helicopters, and future eVTOL air systems. It will feature a 14,000 sqm air-conditioned premium hangar, a 36,000 sqm dedicated aircraft parking apron, a world-class VVIP terminal, optimized fast access to aircraft for owners and flight crews, fast road connections to DIFC and Downtown Dubai, and enhanced in-house MRO capabilities.

In the meantime, Gama Aviation’s existing facility at Sharjah International Airport will continue to operate, offering business jet travelers significant advantages such as a six-minute taxi time, zero slot restrictions, and unrivaled connectivity to aircraft for passengers and flight crews.

Tom Murphy, Managing Director of FBO, stated, “We believe what we will offer in Sharjah will be unique to other facilities available in the region. Over forty years of operational experience has been synthesized into developing a Business Aviation Centre that offers a highly personal, tailored experience to discerning owners, their traveling associates, and flight crews. Sharjah was the location of the first airport in the UAE, and we are working with our partners at the Airport Authority to position this facility as a key Business Aviation access point to the UAE for those who wish to travel with the utmost discretion.”

Marwan Khalek, Group Chief Executive Officer, added, “This project is a strategic focal point for the Group and is one of two major construction projects the Group is undertaking to improve business aviation facilities at primary international airports. We are proud to partner with the Sharjah Airport Authority and recognize the important role of the airport in supporting significant developments in the Emirate of Sharjah, and as a gateway to Dubai and the northern Emirates.”

Gama Aviation will be present at EBACE at booth F90.
