Chapman Freeborn, the global air charter and leasing specialist and part of Avia Solutions Group, has hosted an airline networking event in Dubai to celebrate a fantastic year for the aviation sector.
Coinciding with the IATA Slot Conference and the Dubai Airshow, the event took place at the Siddharta Lounge in Dubai Marina on the evening of Wednesday 15th November.
One hundred and fifty guests from Chapman Freeborn’s ACMI, passenger charter and air cargo charter divisions joined together to reflect on the successes of 2023, enjoying entertainment from a mentalist, canapes and drinks in a beautiful rooftop setting overlooking Dubai’s impressive skyline.
Gediminas Žiemelis, Chairman of the Board at Avia Solutions Group, was also in attendance.
Guests received a signature Chapman Freeborn Airchartering gift: a crystal ornament featuring the skyline the event was set against.
