Luxembourg / Hanoi – Luxaviation Group, one of the largest business aircraft and helicopter operators worldwide headquartered in Luxembourg, has signed an agreement to build a strategic relationship with Thien Minh Group (TMG) and especially with its subsidiary Hai Au Aviation (HAA), Vietnam’s first seaplane service for tourism, also the largest business jet operator in the country. The partnership will see the two respective market leaders exchange expertise in aviation, travel, and hospitality services.
This partnership is the first step towards potential future collaborations between the two companies. Luxaviation Group is committed to supporting TMG, its subsidiary HAA, and other TMG’s subsidiaries with operational capability, networks, and relationships with aviation authorities, while TMG and its subsidiaries are committed to supporting Luxaviation with IT, digital marketing, and flight operations.
The agreement also outlines Luxaviation’s intention to assist HAA in selling aircraft block hours through their own distribution channels and to support TMG in establishing trusting relationships with key financial institutions and decision-makers. Furthermore, Luxaviation will consider utilizing TMG and subsidiaries’ services given the latter’s experience in travel, hospitality, online booking, and aviation.
Patrick Hansen, CEO of Luxaviation Group, says: “We are very excited about this future collaboration, as it underlines our strategy to work together with local partners to accelerate our geographic expansion. We are impressed by TMG’s extensive experience in the travel and hospitality sector, and we are certain that we can continue to grow together in this market.
