PARISLE BOURGET
THE LEADING EUROPEAN BUSINESS AIRPORT Located 7km north of Paris, Paris-Le Bourget Airport can accommodate all types of aircraft, from a small business twin-engine to an Airbus A380. Equipped with three runways, its flight capacity is 45 aircraft movements per hour. We have undertaken a significant modernisation and development programme to fully exploit the strengths of the airport. Linchpin of the Greater Paris aeronautical centre of excellence, Paris-Le Bourget contributes significantly to the Group’s real estate revenue. BALANCED TRAFFIC Traffic at Paris-Le Bourget is balanced between aircraft based at the airport and those based elsewhere, and between business, medical evacuation, official and private travel. The airport connects to 800 destinations and more than 100,000 passengers use its facilities every year. Its customer base is split evenly between large companies, jointly-owned aircraft and occasional aircraft hire. More than 15 specialised airlines and seven fixed-base operators (FBOs), including the world’s four largest, are based at Paris-Le Bourget. Private terminals ensure business customers all the services they need to work and rest in an airport. Following in the footsteps of Unijet in 2013, Landmark Aviation and Universal inaugurated their new terminal in 2014. In addition, a Marriott hotel was opened at the end of the year. A MAJOR CENTRE FOR THE AERONAUTICAL INDUSTRY Nearly 70 companies directly employing more than 3,500 people are located at the airport, including Dassault Falcon Service, Air France Industries, Flight Safety International, Cessna Aircraft, Embraer and Airbus Helicopters. Paris-Le Bourget also hosts the Air and Space Museum and the biennial International Paris Air Show. The most recent show hosted more than 2,000 exhibitors and 380,000 visitors. The next Paris Air Show will be held from 15-21 June 2015. TEN GENERAL AVIATION AIRPORTS AND ONE HELIPORT Paris-Le Bourget also manages the Paris-Issyles-Moulineaux heliport, whose parking areas were renovated following the helicopter terminal renovation a year earlier, and 10 general aviation airports located in the Paris region. Approximately 650,000 aircraft movements were recorded in 2014.
