Executive Airlines reports that its charter business grew by some nine per cent during 2012, with a total of 13,623 passengers according to official figures produced by AENA.

With bases in Madrid and Barcelona, the operator has been successful in attracting charter contracts with annual packages of hours with major companies, as well as important international clients. It puts this success down to the types of aircraft it can offer, most of its fleet being medium and long distance.

The growth in passenger numbers transported has been consistent during the past four years.
