Opul Jets | Impressive Growth

Opul Jets distinguishes itself through a comprehensive, vertically integrated model that combines fleet diversity, regulatory control and client-centred service. Operating under three active Air Operator Certificates across the UK, Malta and the Isle of Man, it delivers seamless cross-border charter operations with full regulatory compliance and operational agility. Its fleet spans light jets to ultra-long-range aircraft, enabling tailored solutions for everything from short business hops to intercontinental travel.

Central to Opul’s offering is its in-house, CAA-approved Part-145 maintenance facility at London Biggin Hill, providing expert engineering oversight and rapid turnaround times that significantly enhance aircraft availability and reliability. This technical strength was further boosted in 2025 with the acquisition of Zenith Aviation, which brought an additional UK AOC, a managed fleet, and a fully accredited maintenance operation, strengthening Opul’s UK and European presence.

The client experience is elevated by bespoke concierge services—ranging from in-flight dining and ground transfers to luggage handling and itinerary planning—combined with advanced inflight connectivity powered by a partnership with SpaceX’s Starlink Aviation. This cutting-edge technology ensures passengers enjoy fast, reliable internet throughout their journey.

Opul Jets is also committed to sustainability, integrating Sustainable Aviation Fuel across its operations and outfitting its crew in certified recycled apparel, reflecting a future-focused approach to responsible luxury travel. Its global footprint spans key international hubs, including London, Dubai, Mumbai and the Isle of Man, enabling seamless access to private jet services across major markets.

Key successes include:

  • Acquiring Zenith Aviation in 2025, gaining a UK Air Operator Certificate, managed fleet, and CAA Part-145 maintenance facility, boosting UK and European operations.
  • Partnering with SpaceX’s Starlink Aviation to provide cutting-edge inflight connectivity, offering fast, reliable internet for passengers.
  • Integrating Sustainable Aviation Fuel and using certified recycled crew apparel, demonstrating commitment to sustainability.
  • Establishing a global presence with bases in London, Dubai, Mumbai and the Isle of Man, enabling seamless private jet services across key international markets.
These achievements reinforce Opul Jets’ status as a strategic, forward-thinking leader dedicated to operational excellence and exceptional client service.
