About Royal Jet

Royal Jet is an Abu Dhabi VIP charter airline aimed at the luxury travel market between the UAE and Europe, and it flies one of the largest fleets of Boeing Business Jets in the world. The BBJ is a converted Boeing 737 with a widebody-sized private cabin, offering bedrooms, lounges and dining areas that smaller business jets cannot match.

Alongside the BBJs it flies Bombardier Global long range business jets. Royal Jet sells private charters and empty legs and runs its own FBO in Abu Dhabi with a customer lounge, tailoring each journey with themed meals and a digital platform for client preferences.

Royal Jet presents itself as an ambassador for Abu Dhabi and the UAE. For large VIP parties flying between the Gulf and Europe, it is one of the few operators of BBJ-sized aircraft.

How booking works with Altivo Jets

1

Route, dates, passengers and bags, plus any aircraft type you prefer.
2
We check availability
We ask licensed operators that can fly the trip, and compare aircraft, timing and price.

Your quote names the operator and the aircraft before you confirm. Nothing is booked until you approve it.
