Dubai-based Emirates has launched an on-demand regional private jet service.
Customers who want to make short trips in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) – which includes the Kingdom of Bahrain, the State of Kuwait, the Sultanate of Oman, the State of Qatar, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates – can use Emirates’ new regional charter service.
The service is available from Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport and will be operated by the airline’s Phenom 100 twin-engine aircraft. The aircraft seats up to four passengers, and travellers on the short flights will be offered a well-stocked hamper of light bites and refreshments. Each passenger can check in one medium-sized bag weighing up to 15 kilograms, in addition to a carry-on handbag.

At their destination, passengers benefit from fast on-ground escorted arrival and quick VIP clearance at customs and immigration provided by private terminal service partners. They will also have access to the private terminal lounge upon arrival (if available).
