Long Range aircraft were the most common size category among the<br />
top ten operators, accounting for nearly 44% of their fleets. Of the 44<br />
Long Range aircraft, 18 were operated by Qatar Executive. Notably, Long<br />
Range aircraft accounted for 80% of Jet Aviation’s fleet and two-thirds<br />
of DC Aviation’s fleet. Corporate Airliners occupied a 28% market share,<br />
with 57% of the aircraft operated by Royal Jet and the Dubai Air Wing.<br />
Royal Jet had the most concentrated fleet of the Corporate Airliners, with<br />
nine BBJ1s. Two out of the top ten operators did not have any Corporate<br />
Airliners in their fleets, namely DC Aviation and Empire Aviation. Large<br />
category aircraft constituted a 22% market share and were part of seven<br />
different fleets among the top ten operators. NAS Private Aviation had the<br />
largest share of this category (five), followed by Sky Prime Aviation (four)<br />
and Arab Wings (four), where NAS Private Aviation was the only operator<br />
among the top ten to have a Light Jet in its fleet. Only three operators<br />
have Medium Jets in their fleets: DC Aviation, Empire Aviation, and Arab<br />
Wings. There were only four Medium Jets among the top ten operators.<br />

Bombardier was the most popular OEM among the operator fleet, with<br />
28% of the market share among the top ten operators. Jet Aviation and<br />
DC Aviation had the most Bombardier aircraft, with seven units each,<br />
followed by ExecuJet Middle East with four. Gulfstream followed closely<br />
with a 26% market share, of which 15 Gulfstream jets were operated<br />
by Qatar Executive. The G650ER was the single most popular model<br />
within an operating fleet. Sky Prime Aviation was also noted for its<br />
five Gulfstream models, which made up over 55% of its operating fleet.<br />
Boeing had the largest share of Corporate Airliners among the top ten<br />
operators at just under 72%, with a total of 20 aircraft compared to six<br />
from Airbus. Royal Jet operated the most Boeing aircraft with nine in its<br />
fleet, followed by Dubai Air Wing with seven, which happened to be its<br />
entire operating fleet. Sky Prime Aviation had the most Airbus jets in its<br />
fleet, with three aircraft. Textron had the fewest business jets among the<br />
top ten operators, with just four aircraft in total.<br />
