The MEBAA Show Morocco will open 25 September at Marrakech Menara Airport, bringing together the leading names of business aviation at the centre of the industry in Africa. Hosted by the Middle East & North Africa Business Aviation Association (MEBAA) and the Morroccan Office National des Aeroports (ONDA), the event will feature key industry players from around the world, including Bell, Air Ocean Maroc, Dassault and Swissport Aviation, among others.
Business aviation movements in Morocco are increasing steadily, as a result of its strategic location between Europe, the Middle East, and the rest of Africa. In fact, the number of business aircraft movements in the MENA region is predicted to reach 175,000 by 2020, while the number of registered aircraft is expected to increase to 1200.
Africa’s business aviation market is growing fuelled by increased commerce and gaps in the commercial aviation sector. At the same time, Morocco is actively targeting and attracting the aerospace and business aviation industry through its Vision 2020, which aims to place the country in the top twenty destinations globally through sustained growth.
The MEBAA Conference will take place the day before the show opens, the 24 September, at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, while the show takes place 25-26 September at Marrakech Menara Airport. For more information or to register to attend, please visit mebaamorocco.aero.
