'ExecuJet’s first operation was based at Lanseria Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1991 as a maintenance provider.

During 1999 ExecuJet Middle East was established in Dubai and the Bombardier sales franchise expanded to 10 Middle Eastern countries. The same year Bombardier signs a contract with ExecuJet for multi-model aircraft sales.
ExecuJet Australia was founded in 2000 and included an aircraft management and maintenance centre at Sydney Airport and awarded dealership rights for Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific. The facility was also appointed as Bombardier Authorised Service Facility and Gulfstream Authorised Warranty Repair Facility. ExecuJet expanded its European operations in 2001 with an aircraft management business, a Fixed Base Operation (FBO) and its offices in Zurich became the headquarters for ExecuJet Aviation Group. Bombardier adds Switzerland to ExecuJet’s business aircraft dealership.
In 2002 ExecuJet expanded its services into Latin America with operations at two Mexican Airports in Monterrey. Meanwhile in South Africa that same year, occupation is taken of a new and bigger facility at Lanseria.
Modern facilities in Dubai was opened in 2005 and ExecuJet was appointed as first Middle East Bombardier Authorised Service Centre. In Berlin, ExecuJet acquires equity stake in Lufthansa Bombardier Aviation Services (LBAS ), in joint venture partnership with Lufthansa Technik and Bombardier.

ExecuJet was granted an Air operator’s certificate (AOC) for the United Kingdom with a full service FBO based at London Cambridge. Representative offices were opened in Mumbai, Beijing and Moscow and a newly refurbished FBO at Berlin announced.

With more than 50 years of experience in business aviation, the Group benefits from a strong network of global partners and close ties with all major manufacturers.
