In just a couple of weeks, 1500 copies of the magazine were posted and distributed by hand to selected local and international company CEOs, VIPs, government officials, business aviation entrepreneurs, aircraft owners, brokers and a database of high profile business people. The magazine was the official local media partner at the 2nd Annual Mediterranean Business Aviation event organised by Aeropodium at The Palace Hotel in Sliema last September. It was distributed to all conference attendees and promoted internationally at annual business aviation trade events and air shows. It is regularly available for free at the La Valette Club lounges at Malta International Airport, within the Executive Aviation Malta’s crew and executive lounges, on board the company’s executive vehicles and business jets, at numerous other high profile venues and locations including on request during high profile local events. We also look at the future of international business aviation as well as the entities which attract high profile travellers to this island. I hope you enjoy reading this issue.
