Our Products and Services

The BBGA is a not-for-profit organisation that seeks to represent the activities undertaken in business aviation. It is important to understand that we represent businesses which deliver services across a wide range of activities. The BBGA can often be seen as an organisation supporting purely business jets, however, even in operational terms those activities can be extremely varied.

At one end of the spectrum, you may have special operations undertaking work such as moving equipment or surveying locations which deliver a very tailored service. At the other end it could be a VVIP operation of a Boeing Business Jet carrying multiple passengers and cargo. In the middle would be the more obvious movement of passengers on specific business jets. Integrated within this activity are services that are vital to everyday life, such as search and rescue, medical evacuation, repatriation from conflict zones and remote regional connectivity.

The service industry behind this whole process includes legal, insurance, training and financial facilities, together with ground operations, fuelling, advanced technology and research. The BBGA has many of these organisations as members. These activities are central to aircraft ownership and are vital to facilitate aircraft transactions, to support a rapidly evolving global market.

To facilitate members voices we utilise a series of member lead workgroups. Those workgroups are Flight Operations, Fixed Based Operators, Sustainability, Membership/events, and Airworthiness. To help focus our activities we have a board of directors voted on by our membership, with each director serving a three-year term. We encourage a turnover in our board members so that we bring a fresh perspective wherever possible.

The organisation undertakes its work on behalf of the members using a virtual office concept having moved away from a physical setting some two years ago. Our systems are now fully web based and all our services are delivered using modern technology which offers great flexibility to members and the secretariat.

The BBGA works in conjunction with the EBAA, with which we have a formal agreement to ensure that UK based organisations are represented by a UK based association, with all the additional benefit of working with a major European association.
