The winners of the 13th AVB Awards 2019 have been announced following a glittering evening and awards ceremony in Dubai.

Industry behemoths

Industry behemoths, bosses and bright sparks from across the supply chain gathered in the luxury Grosvenor House to celebrate achievements, innovation and excellence within aviation.

The AVB Awards has established itself as the ultimate celebration of achievements within the Middle East aviation and aerospace industry over the past 12 months.
