Business Aviation is Soaring High at AERO Friedrichshafen 2026
A very exciting trend for General Aviation Expo Friedrichshafen 2026 is the major upswing in business aviation. Business aviation will be presented on a larger and more international scale than before. The market is feeling a great tailwind right now. Experts predict that 2025 deliveries will match those from about 20 years ago.
AERO will offer a fresh concept for this sector called the AERO Business Aviation Show Hub. This hub will focus on owners, operators, and service providers who use business aircraft. The modern Business Aviation Dome is at the heart of this hub and will be expanded due to high demand. You will see various business aircraft, from small piston planes to very large long-range jets. Helicopters, which are also used for business travel, will occupy the entire Hall B5. Leading companies like Bombardier and Textron Aviation have already registered to exhibit.
