Operations
[edit]
AirX Charter holds a European air operator's certificate (AOC) in Malta[2] and operates a fleet of 16 aircraft. AirX partners with a local operator in the United States who manages two Citation X’s. The Head Office is located in Malta, with other offices in London, U.K. AirX Jet Support is based in Stansted Airport and Malta[3] and has two EASA Part-145 Certificate of Maintenance[4] issued by EASA and maintains both the AirX fleet and third party aircraft.
In 2024, VistaJet’s founder filed legal proceedings against AirX and British financier Timothy Horlick claiming a smear campaign had been launched against VistaJet. The filing also claims that AirX founder John Matthews used a burner email address with a fabricated identity to send emails to business contacts of VistaJet, bypassing court-ordered confidentiality.[5]
