Canary Jet Charter is pleased to announce its feature on AVBUYER, in a recent in-depth article examining the current state and future outlook of Africa’s private aviation and aircraft charter market.
In the report, Ian West, Vice President of Canary Jet Charter, highlighted the company’s strong growth, noting a 27% increase in first-time private jet flyers in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period last year. He further emphasized the sustained demand for medevac services and the growing preference from government delegations for private jet travel, underscoring the reliability and value proposition of business aviation across the region.
The article also addressed industry challenges, including permit delays, limited access to long-range aircraft, and uneven airport infrastructure. Despite these hurdles, Mr. West pointed to clear progress, with new FBO investments, improved facilities in hubs such as Kinshasa, Johannesburg, and Lagos, and rising demand for larger cabin aircraft shaping a positive trajectory for the sector.
“We are proud to contribute to this important conversation about the latest and future of private aviation in Africa. At Canary Jet Charter, our focus remains on delivering safe, seamless, and world-class private jet solutions tailored to our clients’ needs,” said Ian West.
