Olivier Perdriel launched Skyfirst in 2012 on a Maltese Aircraft Operating Certificate. Since its founding, Olivier and his team have developed a close working relationship with Transport Malta, and Skyfirst seeks to be a strong contributor of the Malta aviation community. The company specializes in long-range charter with top-of-the-line business jets.
Olivier began the company with one Learjet 45 aircraft. The company now operates a fleet of advanced larger jets including the Falcon 8X and the Bombardier Global Express. The Skyfirst team is capable of performing virtually any charter mission. Olivier entered the aviation business at age 26 in 2010, managing sales at Le Bourget-based air ambulance firm Air Albatros. The very nature of the medevac business—quick response for critical missions—gave him a solid grounding in all aspects of charter operations. Olivier is a 2009 graduate of Institute Supérieur de Gestion (ISG), one of France’s leading business schools. He is a board member of Aviation Sans Frontières, a charitable organization that transports medical personnel and supplies in Africa among its
philanthropic endeavors.
Olivier participates in operator advisory groups for major business aircraft and engine OEMS and for service providers such as simulator training companies. These activities help maintain close working relations with important providers.
