Business aviation services group Luxaviation this week rolled out expansion plans in Asia-Pacific with the addition of a pair of long-haul jets to its managed fleet in the region. Today at the Avalon Australian International Airshow near Melbourne, the company's Sydney-based division, Luxaviation Asia-Pacific, said it is now operating a Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G550, with the latter available for charter for flights of up to 6,000 nm. 

The European company’s Asia-Pacific division also announced the expansion of its service portfolio to cover sales and marketing of aircraft owned by managed clients. Luxaviation Asia-Pacific said it aims to support owners through the complete aircraft life cycle, from purchase through operations, and then resale.

“The capacity to offer aircraft marketing and sales services is a natural evolution of our business, extending our existing services in response to client requests,” said Darren McGoldrick, vice president of Luxaviation Asia-Pacific. “With our deep market knowledge, extensive industry network, and trusted client relationships, we are uniquely positioned to facilitate seamless aircraft transactions for our managed clients.”

According to Luxaviation Asia-Pacific, demand for private aviation is rising across Southeast Asia in particular. The group also has other facilities in the region, including in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
