Earlier this year AIN announced the results of its 2015 survey that the MJets Bangkok FBO was voted the best FBO in Asia and 4th best in the entire eastern hemisphere. In July 2015 the MJets Bangkok FBO also became the first FBO in Southeast Asia to earn IS-BAH accreditation from the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC).

MJets Executive Chairman, Mr. Jaiyavat Navaraj, said “Southeast Asia is a very important and evolving market for business aviation and Bangkok is at the center of this growth. For this reason, MJets is committed to the regional development and has invested almost 300 million Thai Baht in this new state of the art facility.” He continued “MJets not only specializes in FBO services, but also offers several distinct business lines which include aircraft charter, air ambulance, aircraft maintenance, aircraft management and aircraft sales /consultancy services. Mentioning aircraft maintenance, I’m very proud that MJets has recently been certified by FAA as a Part 145 Repair Station under the brand of Western-MJets enabling our new FBO facility to provide even better service for our customers owning N-Registered aircraft.”
