Luxaviation UK is expanding its charter fleet with the addition of a Luxembourg‑registered Gulfstream G550. Available for charter, the aircraft will be based between the South of France and Istanbul, and operated by Luxaviation UK, servicing key routes across Europe and the Middle East. With the ability to fly non-stop between destinations such as London – Los Angeles or Paris – Tokyo, the G550 connects global business and leisure hubs. By adopting a floating model across these locations, Luxaviation ensures maximum flexibility and responsiveness for clients seeking efficient, safe and compliant charter solutions.

The G550 delivers long-range performance, capable of flying 6,500 nautical miles at cruising speeds of 650 mph. Its spacious cabin, accommodating up to 14 passengers, is designed for both productivity and relaxation, featuring fully reclining seats, advanced entertainment systems and high-speed connectivity.

George Galanopoulos, CEO, Luxaviation UK, commented: “The arrival of the Gulfstream G550 represents another milestone in Luxaviation UK’s commitment to providing the very best in business aviation. The aircraft’s combination of range, performance and cabin comfort makes it a natural fit for our growing fleet and the needs of our clients across Europe and the Middle East.”

Patrick Hansen, CEO, Luxaviation Group, stated: “The Gulfstream G550 continues to set benchmarks for comfort and reliability in the ultra-long-range segment. Its addition to the Luxaviation UK fleet reflects our ongoing investment in modern, high-performance aircraft that exceed expectations.”

Luxaviation UK is this year celebrating its 30th anniversary. The introduction of the Gulfstream G550 marks another step in a year of celebration and continued growth.
