A Profitable, Fully Integrated Regional Aviation Business for Sale in the South Pacific

Brookfield Aviation Finance is representing the sale of a long-established regional aviation business that combines financial stability, operational depth, and a highly attractive lifestyle setting. With more than 40 years of continuous operations, the company offers buyers a mature, diversified aviation platform that has already proven its resilience across economic cycles. 

Unlike early-stage aviation ventures, this is a profitable, asset-backed business with an integrated operating structure, a clean balance sheet, and strong regional market positioning. It represents a rare opportunity to acquire both a functioning aviation ecosystem and a long-standing commercial presence in a growing regional market. 

A Clean Acquisition Structure 

The transaction is structured as a 100% equity acquisition, with no debt or liabilities, providing clarity and simplicity for incoming owners. Buyers are acquiring a complete operating platform that includes aircraft, facilities, established routes, and supporting infrastructure. 

This clean structure reduces transaction complexity and allows new owners to focus immediately on operations and growth rather than restructuring or financial clean-up. 

A Diversified Aviation Platform with Multiple Revenue Streams 

One of the strongest aspects of this opportunity is its integrated business model, combining passenger transport, pilot training, and maintenance services under one operational umbrella. This diversification improves financial resilience and creates internal efficiencies that many standalone operators cannot achieve. 

Scheduled Regional Passenger Services 

The company operates regular scheduled routes across key regional corridors, providing essential connectivity to communities and tourism markets. 

• Operates under established regulatory approval 

• Fleet of nine twin-engine aircraft 

• Strong reputation for reliability and safety 

• Limited competition on core routes 

  
  

Regional aviation often benefits from stable demand, particularly where air travel is essential rather than discretionary. This positioning supports consistent utilisation and predictable revenue. 

Flight Training School 

The business operates a dedicated flight training division that delivers complete pilot training programmes. 

• Three single-engine training aircraft 

• End-to-end training capability 

• Consistent demand supported by global pilot shortages 

  
  

With worldwide demand for trained pilots continuing to outpace supply, flight training provides a reliable and growing revenue stream while strengthening the company’s role in the aviation ecosystem. 

In-House Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) 

The company maintains its own maintenance capability, supporting both internal operations and third-party customers. 

• Full in-house maintenance control 

• Reduced reliance on external providers 

• Additional revenue from third-party servicing 

• Better cost management and operational efficiency 

  
  

This capability strengthens reliability, protects margins, and provides an additional commercial service line, an important advantage in regional aviation. 

Financial Stability Supported by Tangible Assets 

The business demonstrates steady financial performance supported by meaningful asset ownership. 

• Annual turnover: approximately USD 1.6 million 

• Net profit: approximately 5% of turnover 

• Asset value (aircraft and real estate): approximately USD 2.3 million 

  
  

These figures reflect a business that is not only operationally active but also backed by real, income-generating aviation assets. This asset base provides downside protection while preserving upside potential through operational growth. 

Strategic Market Position 

The company operates in a growing regional aviation environment where air connectivity plays a vital role in supporting tourism, local economies, and transport access. 

Key competitive strengths include: 

• Established relationships with local authorities and government bodies 

• Strong repeat customer base 

• Limited direct competition on major routes 

• Longstanding brand reputation built over four decades 

  
  

Such positioning is difficult to replicate quickly, giving buyers an immediate market presence and long-term operating credibility. 

Residency by Investment Advantage 

An additional strategic benefit is the country’s recently relaxed residency criteria for offshore investors. Investment into a qualifying business at the required threshold may provide a pathway to permanent residency, subject to regulatory approval. 

Because this transaction comfortably meets the investment level, international buyers may gain both: 

• Ownership of a stable aviation enterprise 

• A structured pathway to residency in a developed OECD jurisdiction 

This dual commercial and personal benefit significantly enhances the attractiveness of the acquisition for overseas investors. 

Buyer Suitability 

This opportunity is particularly well suited to: 

• Aviation operators seeking regional expansion 

• Investors looking for asset-backed cash flow 

• Owner-operators seeking a lifestyle aviation business 

• International buyers seeking stability, growth, and residency potential 

A Mature Aviation Platform with Immediate Operational Value 

Building a regional aviation business with diversified operations, trained staff, established routes, maintenance capability, and regulatory standing would typically require decades of development. This acquisition offers immediate access to all of those elements within a single, integrated structure.

With 40 years of operating history, multiple revenue streams, tangible assets, and strong market positioning, this business represents a rare chance to acquire a proven aviation enterprise that combines financial performance, operational control, and long-term strategic value.
