As EBACE25 draws to a close, the atmosphere at Geneva’s Palexpo reflects a sense of momentum, purpose and progress. This year marks a new chapter as the first edition led solely by the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA). More than a handover, EBACE25 debuted a bold new identity: a reimagined platform designed by and for the industry, signalling a clear shift toward a more connected, forward-facing future for Business Aviation in Europe.

EASA is reviewing operational rules for (small-size) aeroplane operators, and your input can shape the outcome. Whether you operate small aircraft, run cost-sharing platforms, or fly larger jets, this survey is your chance to influence future regulation. Open until 30 May.

EBAA is pleased to launch its new compliance guide on the refuelling obligations set out in the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation (EU 2023/2405). This user-friendly document is designed to support business aviation operators in navigating the complexities of the antitankering and reporting provisions introduced by the regulation.

Following the entry into force of the ReFuelEU Regulation in January 2025, several European business aviation operators have started to voice concerns over the operational issues with the implementation of the regulation’s Article 5, forbidding fuel tankering at Union airports and requiring burdensome administrative requirements. EBAA has gathered a group of expert members’ operators to help the association shape arguments in view of the ReFuelEU review in 2027 and assist other members with compliance.

Safety in business aviation isn’t about ticking boxes—it’s about trust, awareness, and human judgment. In a world of constant change, rigid compliance alone can’t prevent incidents. True safety lives in cultures where people speak up, adapt, and own responsibility. It’s time to stop managing people as risks—and start empowering them as our greatest safety asset.
