Rapidly expanding VIP charter specialist VistaJet has confirmed that it is to move it global headquarters from London to Malta. The operator currently has some 51 aircraft on the Maltese register – a mix of Challenger 350, 604 and 850 and Global XRS, 5000 and 6000 models. It opened an operations centre in Malta in mid-2013. As we reported last month, the company reported a 23% increase in passenger numbers in 2015. It has also recently established operations in both China and the US. Thomas Flohr, the company’s founder and chairman, said: “Malta is a fantastic place to do business. Its aviation industry is flourishing, as part of the EU it has access to the European common market, and it has a government that not only supports business, but works with and encourages companies like ours to grow and develop.”
