We’re pleased to announce a partnership between Sarla Aviation and Air Charter International (ACI) as we work together to advance the future of regional and advanced air mobility.

Sarla Aviation is building next-generation eVTOL aircraft and infrastructure ecosystems designed to make short-haul air travel faster, more efficient, and more accessible. As part of this journey, partnerships with experienced global aviation operators are critical to ensuring that emerging technologies are aligned with real-world operational, regulatory, and market requirements.

Air Charter International brings decades of experience in aircraft charter, leasing, and complex aviation operations across global markets, including the Middle East, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Through this collaboration, Sarla Aviation and ACI will explore opportunities to bridge today’s charter and on-demand aviation needs with tomorrow’s sustainable, electric air mobility solutions.

The GCC represents one of the most progressive and aviation-forward markets globally, with a strong focus on innovation, sustainability, premium mobility, and next-generation transport infrastructure. With its deep operational experience, regulatory familiarity, and long-standing presence across the Middle East, ACI brings valuable market insight that will help evaluate practical use cases for eVTOL aircraft in the region.

Through this partnership, Sarla Aviation and ACI will work together to:

• Identify high-potential partnerships and customers for Sarla Aviation

• Explore infrastructure readiness, including vertiports and integration with existing aviation ecosystems

• Engage with regional stakeholders to understand regulatory and operational pathways in the GCC

By combining Sarla Aviation’s focus on next-generation electric aircraft with ACI’s expertise in real-world aviation operations and market access, this collaboration aims to lay the groundwork for sustainable, time-efficient air mobility solutions tailored to the needs of the GCC.

We look forward to jointly exploring how advanced air mobility can complement the region’s ambitious vision for the future of aviation.
