PRESENTATION OF THE GROUP 1 MAIN HUBS

Traffic

u time-share aviation: a company buys a share in an executive jet, corresponding to a certain amount of annual flight time; u corporate aviation: a company owns its own fleet of aircraft and employs its own crews for its exclusive needs. Paris-Le Bourget hub offers several advantages for business travellers: u fast boarding and deplaning, thanks to the optimisation of transfer procedures between aircraft and ground transportation; u the possibility of reaching destinations not served by traditional commercial routes; u the quality of its aviation facilities; u its proximity to Paris; u the presence of the world’s leading global corporate aviation service operators, guaranteeing travel service quality and confidentiality; u the presence on site of the European maintenance centres of the main international business aircraft manufacturers; u the quality of the ground services and the possibility of Paris-Le Bourget maintained its position as Europe’s leading business airport in terms of movements in 2024. The platform is ahead of the other major business aviation airports, namely Nice, Geneva and Farnborough. The airport continues to attract the main business aviation players. The airport had seven support companies (FBO) in 2024: Jetex Flight Support, Advanced Air Support International, Universal Aviation, ExecuJet, Signature Flight Support, Dassault Falcon Services, and Astonsky. Flightsafety, a major provider of pilot training services, enhanced its offering by installing new simulators at its centre. Similarly, major international manufacturers (Dassault Falcon, Cessna, Embraer and TAG, along with Bombardier and Gulfstream who recently joined) have located Europe-wide maintenance centres at the Paris-Le Bourget hub. The leading global business aviation company NetJets set up a maintenance centre in 2022. The Airbus Helicopters plant (manufacture of helicopter blades) continues to develop its activity with nearly 1,000 jobs by the platform by developing new technologies to minimise the noise impact of helicopters and preparing for the advent of electric air mobility. Other companies continue to request land on which to develop or set up their operations and are submitting projects for the coming years. All of the activities are part of the announced development connected with the “Métropole du Grand Paris” project, and particularly the future building of the Grand Paris Express “Le Bourget Aéroport” train station planned for 2026. holding meetings at the airport itself.

Regulatory constraints and limitation of noise pollution

To cut down on aircraft noise pollution for local communities, jet aircraft take-offs, the use of reverse thrust systems and the use of runway 2 by aircraft exceeding 5.7 tonnes are prohibited between 10:15 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. All operating restrictions aimed at reducing noise pollution are explained in the decree of 15 February 2011. The business aviation market Business aviation is a professional tool used by companies as well as individuals in three complementary forms: u commercial business aviation: independent transport companies provide an on-demand service, supplying aircraft and crew for the duration of the flight.
