European business aviation specialist VistaJet (Malta) (VJT, Malta International) has acquired three new aircraft, boosting its fleet to seventy business jets, the Maltese Independent reports.
The carrier took delivery of two Challenger 350s and one Global Express 6000 on September 30. VistaJet has sixty of its aircraft registered on the island with the remaining ten split between the United States and China. It operates some 100 flights per day.
VistaJet moved its corporate headquarters from Baar, Switzerland to Malta earlier this year. Its Chief Operating Officer (COO) Nick van der Meer, says the move was inspired by the country’s progressive business attitude and not for tax purposes. It is currently the biggest aircraft operator in the country.
