Lehmann Jet of the UAE is to offer new services for the acquisition and management of Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJs) in the Middle-East.

The Dubai-based private jets broker and management company will offer an exclusive fractional ownership and management services for ACJ aircraft only, on behalf of owners.

The service covers the ACJ range including the ACJ318, ACJ319, ACJ320, ACJ330 jets. It includes a new fractional ownership programme for new and pre-owned ACJ aircraft; aircraft sales; cabin design with famous European designers; cabin completion; aircraft management and aircraft charter.

For the first time in the Middle East, a new Airbus ACJ318 coming out in November 2014, is now suggested at the cost of a much smaller aircraft under a special fractional ownership programme, says Benjamin Lehmann, Founder and CEO of Lehmann Jet.

With a brand new Elite+ cabin, the new ACJ318 will become the most desirable and comfortable aircraft available in the Middle East, with a capacity of 19 guests for long-haul travel, he adds.

“We are the only company in the Middle East to provide fractional ownership for new and pre-owned ACJs,” says Lehmann. “The programme we have been working on for many months is really unique and allows the cost of the ACJ to be shared between two clients. According to our experience, the aircraft can be easily used by two even big families without making compromise on travels. With our programme, the price of the new ACJ318 can really become twice as cheap.”

Private operations, for owners only, will begin in January 2015, and charter flights will be available from June 2015.
