The Company

Passion for Quality

As Germany’s leading business aviation company we know better than anybody else what our international customers and partners expect. This makes for the difference between good and excellent: professional execution of your orders. True, precise, uncompromising.

DC Aviation emerged in 2007 from the former DaimlerChrysler Aviation, a subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler AG, which was founded in 1998. Through its over 19 years of corporate history, DC Aviation has acquired extraordinarily extensive experience in aircraft management.

Today, DC Aviation offers a complete portfolio reaching from aircraft management over airplane charter to business jet service. Our young fleet includes modern Cessna Citations Type XLS+, long-distance jets like the Gulfstream G550, and large-cabin airplanes like the Airbus 319 CJ.

As the first German operator of private business jets, the company was awarded the international IOSA Certificate (IATA Operational Safety Audit) in July 2007.
