Elite Jets First in Region To Gain IBAC OK

Dubai-base Elite Jets has become the first company in the Middle East to obtain the coveted IS-BAO certification from the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC). The Middle East Business Aviation Association is a member of IBAC.


IS-BAO stands for International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations and was introduced in 2002 to help flight departments worldwide to achieve high levels of professionalism and safety. According to Elite Jets, one of the main benefits of IS-BAO certification, which must be renewed after two years, is that “third-party audits are no longer required for clients that wish to source our services.”
