ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East has relocated to a new line maintenance premises at Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) which is part of Dubai South; a new residential, commercial and logistics centre southwest of the city centre.

Nick Weber, Regional VP Middle East at ExecuJet MRO Services, says: “More and more business jet activity is shifting to DWC, partly driven by airport authority and FBO incentives such as reduced airport landing and parking fees.”

ExecuJet MRO Services’ new premises at DWC is able to support aircraft types from various manufacturers, including Dassault, Bombardier, Embraer and Hawker.

“We chose to establish the first line maintenance facility at Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) back in June 2013 to enable continued support of our existing customers,” says Weber. The new LMU location is adjacent to the corporate ramp and various VIP private FBOs, well positioned to provide instant support on a 24/7 basis.

ExecuJet also provides line maintenance at Dubai International Airport (DXB) where its heavy maintenance base is located. Meanwhile, construction is well-progressed on a new heavy maintenance base at DWC that ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East plans to open in Q2 2022.

The maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) company is continuing to expand its MRO capability and certifications to meet operator demand.

India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), for example, recently certified ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East to carry out line and heavy maintenance on various types of Indian-registered Dassault Falcon business jets, namely the Falcon 7X and Falcon 8X as well as several variants of Falcon 2000 and Falcon 900.
