London : The United Arab Emirates (UAE)-based flight services company Royal Jet has been named the world’s leading private jet charter by the World Travel Awards (WTA), WAM news agency reported Saturday.
The award was presented to Royal Jet’s President and CEO Shane O’Hare by the WTA’s Executive Director Manon Han at a function here.
“The award owes much to the direction Royal Jet has taken under the leadership of its Chairman Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan and is a reflection of the reputation we enjoy amongst our industry peers and partners,” O’Hare said while accepting the award.
The award comes just four months after Royal Jet won another prestigious award – Business Jet Provider of the year – at the Aviation Business Awards ceremony in Dubai.
Sheikh Hamdan said the awards were the culmination of a great deal of dedication and hard work by all at Royal Jet. “I can promise that we will live up to the expectations inherent in this solid vote of confidence,” he said.
Royal Jet is jointly owned by Abu Dhabi Aviation and Amiri Flight and is chaired by Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, who serves as a minister in the UAE federal cabinet.
