GLOVistaJet, the leading global private aviation company and a core part of the Vista group, proudly announces its position as the first international operator authorized to provide domestic flights within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This landmark agreement underscores VistaJet’s commitment to supporting the Kingdom’s strategic objectives and aligns with the vision and implementation plans set forth by the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA).
Expanding Operations in Saudi Arabia
Leveraging its fully-owned, floating fleet model, VistaJet is uniquely positioned to deliver immediate private aviation services across the Kingdom while maintaining the operational efficiencies of its global network. With the world’s largest fleet of Global 7500 aircraft—and the upcoming addition of Global 8000 jets—VistaJet clients can enjoy nonstop connectivity from Saudi Arabia to virtually any destination worldwide, benefiting from the Kingdom’s advantageous central geographic location.
Strategic Alignment with Vision 2030
Nick van der Meer, Chief Operating Officer at Vista, stated:
“The approval and recognition by GACA mark a major milestone for Vista in the Kingdom. Expanding our domestic capabilities not only reinforces our presence in the region but also optimizes the performance of our global fleet. We’re proud to contribute to Vision 2030 and appreciate the support of the leadership and GACA. This expansion enables us to deliver seamless travel within Saudi Arabia and beyond, reflecting our dedication to reliability, consistency, and world-class service.”
Saudi Arabia’s aviation sector is undergoing a transformative era, serving as a cornerstone of Vision 2030. The Kingdom’s bold ambition to become a global hub for travel, trade, and investment is driving rapid modernization in regulation, infrastructure, and innovation—strengthening connections across Asia, Africa, and Europe. This vision aligns closely with Vista’s mission to deliver advanced, sustainable, and integrated aviation solutions offering the best value anytime, anywhere.
Commitment to Growth and Local Investment
VistaJet has served the Saudi market for over 15 years—longer than any other international operator—and continues to see strong growth. In the first half of 2025, VistaJet recorded a 32% year-on-year increase in Program Members within the Kingdom, highlighting rising demand for both domestic and international private travel solutions.
Mazen Obaid, President — Middle East at Vista, added:
“We are thrilled to work alongside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and GACA, reaffirming our commitment to providing clients with dependable and flexible private aviation solutions through our global infrastructure. As a Saudi national, I am particularly proud of this milestone and the opportunities it creates. We deeply value the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 and look forward to investing locally and hiring top local talent.”
Vista’s Global Expertise

This announcement comes on the heels of Vista’s successful $1.3 billion Equity and Term Loan B transaction earlier this year, reinforcing confidence in its strategy and long-term vision. The new Saudi partnership marks another significant milestone, strengthening Vista’s footprint in a key growth market while expanding its services globally.
