Dubai-based Empire Aviation Group has become the first operator in the Gulf Cooperation Council to take delivery of a new Hawker 4000. The aircraft, along with all of Empire’s fleet, is offered for charter throughout Europe and the Middle East by Avinode (Booth No. 4438), which provides an online suite of tools to charter operators and users. With a range of 3,280 nm, the Hawker 4000 is ideally suited for the long distances Dubai-based passengers routinely travel, including direct flights from Dubai to Paris, Singapore, Geneva and Mauritius.
