The Business Aviation Asia Forum and Expo, known as BAAFEx, returns to Singapore next year, with organiser Experia Events listing dates of 22 to 24 March at the Changi Exhibition Centre.

BAAFEx is the region's dedicated business aviation gathering, pairing a static aircraft display with a conference programme built for aircraft owners and operators, charter brokers, financiers and lessors, maintenance and completions providers, fixed base operators and the regulators who license all of them. The format matters because business aviation in Asia is spread across many jurisdictions with different rules on ownership, charter and airport access, and the show is one of the few places where those questions are worked through in one room.

For executives the forum has a double relevance. Corporate flight departments and family offices use it to compare aircraft, service providers and operating models, while the suppliers, airport operators and financiers who sell into them treat it as a fixed point in the sales calendar.

Experia Events, the Singapore organiser behind the Singapore Airshow and IMDEX Asia, has positioned BAAFEx as the business aviation counterpart to its larger commercial and defence shows. The Changi Exhibition Centre hosts it on a 65 hectare site near Changi Airport, with about 40,000 square metres of indoor exhibition space and a large outdoor area suited to parking and displaying aircraft.
