About Us
There is no Substitute for Expertise
Aircraft management and charter really boils down to experience that instills confidence in clients and the organizations with whom we interact: regulators; aircraft manufacturers; maintenance companies; and FBOs in remote places. It takes time and the right kind of staff to establish these connections. This is where Skyfirst shines.

Why We Partner with the Malta Registry
Skyfirst was one of the first charter companies to obtain an aircraft operating certification (AOC) with Transport Malta. In a very real sense, we grew up with each other. We and our clients benefit from this strong collaborative relationship. Together we work to ensure high safety standards, while minimizing bureaucracy and red tape. Today, around 1,000 aircraft are on the Maltese registry. Below we tell you about this important relationship and how it benefits our clients.
