Gama Aviation launches European Broker of the Year award.

Tuesday 20th May 2014

Gama Aviation, the global business aviation company, will announce at EBACE 2014 the launch of its own European Broker of the Year Award.   The competition, open to individuals (not companies) recognises the important role that brokers play in driving bookings to Gama Aviation's charter business.

Duncan Daines, Chief Marketing Officer for Gama Aviation said: "As an operator we wanted to launch a programme that would demonstrate our appreciation for the broking community and build healthy competition, alongside each brokers' own incentive programme."

Brokers wishing to participate are invited to drop by the Gama Aviation Stand (806) at EBACE, or register online at www.gamaviation.com. ; The winner will be announced at EBACE 2015 and rewarded with a prize of a weekend trip for two to a European city of their choice (commercial flight and accommodation), plus £500 cash (terms & conditions apply).

Furthermore, Gama Aviation, which has been operating charter flights for 31 years, intends to roll out the award with similar accolades for brokers in the US and Middle East, coinciding with NBAA and MEBA shows later this year.

Gama Aviation's Commercial Manager Paul Cremer will formally launch the programme on the Gama Aviation stand 806 at Tuesday afternoon 20th May at 2 pm.
