Boost Air Group was officially presented to the media as the new aviation group born from the integration of several leading aircraft maintenance companies, with the aim of becoming the first major independent group in the sector in Spain and with international projection. The project comes after the merger of Gestair, Brok-Air Aviation Group, ATS Aviation, S.L., and Semasa, driven by Hyperion together with Corporación Financiera Azuaga.
The group is launched with a differentiated proposal: a 360º industrial model covering the entire aircraft lifecycle, presence in business, commercial, and defense aviation, strategic infrastructure in Spain and international presence, and more than 900 highly specialized professionals. The integration aims to combine the industrial and operational capabilities of the participating companies: Gestair brings leadership in business aviation; Brok-Air contributes its expertise in line maintenance for airlines; and ATS Aviation operates both line and base maintenance for business aviation.
Boost Air CEO Miguel Ángel Morell explained during the presentation that the creation of the group responds to the sustained growth of aviation in recent years. “Civil traffic continues to increase annually by 4% to 5%, while the demand for aircraft will keep growing over the coming decades, with up to 20,000 new planes expected. This necessarily leads to greater maintenance activity,” he stated. This scenario is further strengthened by increased defense spending, driven by NATO member countries’ investment commitments.
Boost Air Group already has strategic infrastructure, including facilities at Madrid-Barajas, Madrid-Cuatro Vientos, Málaga, and Castellón, totaling nearly 47,500 square meters of hangars. In addition, the company has been awarded a plot at Barajas Airport to build a 10,000 m² hangar for wide-body aircraft, with an estimated investment of €20 million. The group provides services at around 20 airports, including Faro, Porto, and Lisbon, as well as several airfields in the Canary Islands, and has a presence in Malta with a training center and an Air Operator Certificate (AOC). New bases are planned in Santiago de Compostela and Vigo.
The group employs around 900 professionals, more than half of whom are specialized aircraft maintenance mechanics. In response to the shortage of these profiles in Southern Europe, Boost Air has created its own academy to train technicians, crew members, and pilots, while actively recruiting new talent. Currently, the group logs over 80,000 maintenance hours annually, services more than 140 business aircraft per year, and performs over 350 technical inspections. In commercial aviation, it supports airlines such as Lufthansa, Norwegian, Air France, Volotea, and EasyJet, with more than 11,000 technical interventions and around 10,000 aircraft overnight stays per year.
The group aims to consolidate its position in Southern Europe and expand internationally through new facilities and the acquisition of foreign airline clients. According to the founders, “this project represents much more than a new brand: it is the natural evolution of integrating capabilities, talent, and industrial vision from three leading companies into a single group with a global vocation.”
With the combined revenue of the four companies exceeding €280 million in 2025, Boost Air Group plans to complete operational integration and increase its revenue by at least 10% in 2026. The medium-term strategy aims to double turnover within the next five years, establishing Boost Air Group as the leading independent reference in the Spanish and European aviation maintenance sector
