Aircraft management means a specialist company runs your aircraft for you. ASM Air is an aircraft management company based in Dubai, providing aircraft management services to private jet owners across the UAE and the wider region. We handle flight operations, crew, maintenance oversight, regulatory compliance, insurance and accounting. You keep full control and receive clear monthly reports.
What Our Aircraft Management Services Include
No two aircraft or ownership profiles are identical. Before proposing a structure, ASM AIR reviews the aircraft’s technical status, intended utilisation, operating region, current contracts, crew requirements and owner-access priorities.
Depending on eligibility and agreed scope, the management programme may include:
Flight Operations
Dispatch, flight planning and 24/7 operational watch for every trip.
Crew Management
Selection, vetting, training and scheduling. →
Continuing airworthiness (CAMO)
Maintenance planning, records and compliance. →
Regulatory Compliance
GCAA requirements, documentation and safety oversight, end to end.
Financial Reporting
Monthly statements covering costs, charter income and activity.
Insurance and Fuel
Negotiated rates through group agreements, passed to owners.
Mission Support
Permits, handling, fuel and catering coordinated for every flight of your aircraft.
What Does Aircraft Management Cost?
Aircraft management fees depend on the aircraft type, how many hours you fly and which services you need. Rather than quote a headline figure, we set out the full picture: the management fee, the costs it controls, and the charter income that can offset them.

Earn From Your Aircraft
Most private jets fly a few hundred hours a year. The rest of the time, they cost money. ASM Air can place your aircraft on the charter market when you are not using it, with enquiries managed through ASM Charter. You set the rules: who flies, where, and when. The income helps offset crew, maintenance, insurance and parking.
Ownership Decisions Beyond Aircraft Management
Private jet ownership brings freedom and responsibility in equal measure. Regulatory obligations, crew employment, maintenance planning and cost control continue whether you fly or not. Professional aircraft management transfers that workload to a team that does it daily, while you keep every ownership benefit.

How to Choose an Aircraft Management Company
Ask four questions of any aircraft management company. Do they hold their own operator certificate? Do they manage crew and airworthiness in-house or subcontract them? How often will you see a full cost report? And who is accountable when something goes wrong at 2am? ASM Air answers: yes, in-house, monthly, and one named team.
