One of the best things about Dubai is that it makes living the high life (excuse the pun) very attainable. Just when we think that 5-star hotels and business class travel are reachable goals, along comes something like this. GI Aviation<\/a> is a new company that\u00a0lets\u00a0you hire a private plane for short-haul\u00a0flights and it way cheaper than a regular private jet.<\/p>\n

It works for short business and leisure trips<\/h3>\n

The concept is already winning over corporations and business executives who are tired of long journeys by car or increasingly frustrated by inherent delays on short distance scheduled flights. You – not the airline, determine the itinerary.\u00a0Whether you live in Dubai or have friends visiting the city on holiday, you can facilitate a quick regional or domestic escape to tranquility or adventure across the U.A.E and the wider region, especially where commercial flights are lacking or non-existent. So you can avoid the queues of an airport, as you decided where and when to take off and land.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is how the fares compare with a charter plane<\/h3>\n

The company, GI Aviation, is the first of it’s kind and has been created in the UAE<\/h3>\n
\n

\u201cGI\u00a0Aviation\u00a0is delivering a competitively priced, reliable private charter service that is encouraging new clients into this sector, who until now believed flying private could not be affordable… we are able to serve most the major business and capital cities within the GCC and surrounding region and will also serve popular resort destinations like Sir Bani Yas, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah,\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

A private plan to Sir Bani Yas anyone?<\/h3>\n

Take Sir Bani Yas Island in Abu Dhabi for example – the six-hour drive and boat journey to reach this renowned luxury destination has put off many the aspiring guest based in Dubai or the Northern Emirates.\u00a0There is an introductory rate of AED 24,000 return for the aircraft including all costs that works out as just over AED 3,700 per person return if you have 6 people flying.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Doha can be reached from Dubai or Abu Dhabi in less than 55 minutes<\/h3>\n

You can work out the range and travel time here<\/a> .\u00a0<\/p>\n

How have they made this possible?<\/h3>\n

The popular 6 to 8 seat Swiss-crafted Pilatus PC-12 aircraft is now available for private charter, thanks to the innovative service from UAE based\u00a0GI\u00a0Aviation. It’s basically a propeller plane, rather than a jet. Technically speaking: “The PC-12NG is a versatile, high-speed private aircraft with a cruising speed of 520 km\/h and a pressurized cabin of up to 25,000ft”.<\/p>\n

The PC-12 has a BMW designed interior<\/h3>\n
