Gulf Wings is a UAE business jet operator that belongs to Jordan's Arab Wings group, part of the International Wings Group. Arab Wings was set up in 1975 as a subsidiary of Royal Jordanian to fly executive charters, was privatised in 2005, and decided in 2009 to create an independent UAE company. Gulf Wings received its UAE air operator certificate from the General Civil Aviation Authority in November 2009 and began operations in Sharjah the following month. It holds GCAA Air Operator Certificate AT-0045.
The company flies executive charter and manages aircraft for owners, launching with a Challenger 605 placed under management and adding further aircraft within its first year. Its parent group offers private jet charter, aircraft management, medical evacuation, aircraft maintenance, ground handling supervision and special missions, with a fleet weighted towards Bombardier types. Gulf Wings aircraft are based at Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai, and the company's own website currently shows only a holding page.
Gulf Wings is listed on the EASA register of authorised third country operators under reference ARE-0003 and holds UK CAA third country operator authorisation 1166, allowing commercial flights into Europe and the United Kingdom. The fleet on its GCAA certificate includes Bombardier Challenger 605s, a Bombardier Global 6000 and an Embraer Legacy 600.
