Luxaviation

Luxaviation is a private aviation group. The company is based in Strassen, Luxembourg. It operates business jets and helicopters for private owners, corporate owners and charter clients. The group traces its roots to Abelag Aviation. A Belgian pilot named André Ganshof van der Meersch founded that company in 1964. He opened the first European terminal dedicated to business aviation at Brussels Airport. This heritage forms the foundation of the modern group.

Luxaviation operates more than 260 jets and helicopters. These aircraft fly under 15 Air Operator Certificates. The fleet includes the Embraer Praetor 600, the Bombardier Challenger 604 and the Gulfstream G550. In 2024 the group fleet logged 28,251 flight hours. The fleet also completed 16,664 flights that year. These figures come from the group published sustainability data.

The company offers business jet charter services. It also markets empty legs and the Try and Fly jet card. Aircraft management is available for both private and commercially registered aircraft. This service includes completions consulting. CAMO services are also part of the management offering. In addition, Luxaviation handles aircraft sales and acquisitions for buyers and sellers.

Helicopter services are another key part of the business. The group provides helicopter management, helicopter charter and helicopter training. It runs VIP helicopter operations through its alliance. Technical support is available through Luxaviation Technical Services. The group also runs a client service academy for training purposes.
