El Seif adds to its executive fleet with new Challenger 605

“Challenger aircraft have a reputation for being highly efficient jets,” said Khaled Al Seif.

“We already operate a Challenger 600 jet and a Challenger 601 jet; both aircraft have proven to be invaluable tools, providing superior reliability, a spacious and comfortable cabin, and all of the amenities necessary to be productive during flight. The Challenger 605 jet was the logical choice for our next aircraft,” he added.

Established in 1951, The Group is active in the fields of engineering and construction, healthcare, medical equipment, hospital supplies, operation and maintenance, and commercial investment, including real estate development, insurance
