Falcon Aviation is celebrating its first anniversary at its FBO in the VIP Terminal at Al Maktoum International Airport (Dubai South) by being awarded IS-BAH certification.
The accreditation was received by the company on 30th November following a third-party audit by the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC).
“We are very pleased that the industry standards have been successfully implemented through to Stage I registration at the Falcon Aviation station at DWC and trust that the team will continue their commitment to ground handling safety as a core value in their service provision to the business aviation community.”
Terry Yeomans, programme director for IS-BAH, said: “We are very pleased that the industry standards have been successfully implemented through to Stage I registration at the Falcon Aviation station at DWC and trust that the team will continue their commitment to ground handling safety as a core value in their service provision to the business aviation community.”
“We are delighted with this recognition as it has been a priority for us this year as we build up our activity in Dubai to mirror our Abu Dhabi Al Bateen Executive Airport performance,” said Falcon Aviation COO Capt Raman Oberoi. “This means we can move into the New Year with a ringing industry endorsement of inhouse handling excellence.”
In July, Falcon Aviation appointed a new FBO manager, Ahmad Badreddine, who helped in the IS-BAH audit.
Badreddine brings nearly a decade of experience with a leading FBO brand to the role, together with previous experience in the commercial aviation sector, where he held station manager and ground handling roles with Emirates Airlines and Dnata, looking after a variety of aviation companies.
He said: “I am delighted to have joined Falcon Aviation at such an exciting time in the business. The IS-BAH endorsement rounds off a brilliant year and I am looking forward to 2018 and being able to build on our loyal customer base and further attract new clients who are flying or transiting through the FBO. We will also be incentivising clients further with discounts on connecting helicopter charters if they use our FBO and our new heliport.”
Falcon Aviation offers a VIP service for passengers connecting from business jets to helicopters, following the opening of its heliport in April 2017.
