London City Owns a Jet

Post by Comet »

London City Airport has its own Dassault Falcon jet which it charters out for business and conference groups who need to get to the City of London.

Is this the only example of an airport which owns and charters its own aircraft?

Hi Louise,
Bangkok Airways and Samui Airoort are owned by the same family. So they have the airport and a fleet of a/c...

But also in communist regimes airline and airport were under the same ministry... it seems it is now a privilege of capitalists?

Thanks for the info Fons. We have very little news and facts about Asian airports and their ownership in the UK media.

I had just wondered if LCY was unique, maybe it is in Europe.
