Vista and Dassault sign up for BAAFEx 2027

November 1, 2026

More than 20 exhibitors have been confirmed for the Singapore show, which is expected to be 50 per cent bigger than its inaugural 2025 edition.

Vista Global has confirmed a Global 8000 for static display at the Business Aviation Asia Forum & Expo 2027 (BAAFEx 2027), while Dassault Aviation is planning to showcase an aircraft on static display and the Asian Business Aviation Association (AsBAA) is returning as supporting association.

The event, to be held at the Changi Exhibition Centre in Singapore, is expected to be 50 per cent bigger than its inaugural 2025 edition. It is set to attract more than 3,000 industry professionals and trade visitors, with over 75 participating companies taking part in the exhibition, sponsorship opportunities and three-day forum programme. More than 20 exhibitors are confirmed across aircraft, charter and aircraft management, aviation fuel, trip support, connectivity, MRO and technical solutions, airports and regulatory services.

Vista, Sino Jet and Aviaarc Trip Support are among the latest companies to join the exhibitor line-up, alongside previously confirmed exhibitors including AEG Fuels, Amber Aviation, Boeing Business Jets, Gogo, Hadid International Services, Lufthansa Technik and Viasat. Sino Jet returns as an exhibitor, with vice chair Jenny Lau set to participate in the forum’s China market discussion. Dassault Aviation will also return to BAAFEx in 2027.

Ian Moore, chief commercial officer at Vista, says: “Southeast Asia plays an important role for business development across Asia Pacific, which is also underscored by Singapore’s 58 per cent flight traffic growth in the first half of 2026 compared to 2025.”

Market-focused discussions on China and Southeast Asia will return in 2027, while BAAFEx 2027 will introduce dedicated discussions on Australia and India, recognising their growing importance and longer-term potential within Asia Pacific business aviation. Urban air mobility will also be introduced as a subject area, covering helicopters and eVTOLs, including how the two types of aircraft could coexist within the wider aviation ecosystem and the regulatory, infrastructure and airspace requirements needed to support future growth.

Leck Chet Lam, managing director of show organiser Experia Events, adds: “The decision to include dedicated discussion panels on the Australia and India business aviation markets reflects the size and importance of these markets in the region.”

Other forum topics include airport infrastructure and slot availability, how the MRO sector is developing in-region and attracting maintenance engineers and technicians, digital charter platforms, onboard passenger experience, inflight connectivity and cabin interiors and the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel and carbon offsetting.

Trade visitor registration for BAAFEx 2027 is open.
