Business aircraft maker 1 Bombardier, based in Montreal, Canada, has brought an array of aircraft to Dubai, including its Global 6000 business jet.
Bombardier claims this 65 million US dollar aircraft was created to answer the needs of the most discerning, and wealthy, travellers.
Khader Matter is the company's vice 2 president of sales in the Middle East, Asia Pacific and China.
"If you look at the market segment that we have, it's obviously the royal families that use it for their travels and then you have the wealthy families that like to travel with their family together - their trips and holidays and obviously for their businesses. And then you have the entrepreneurs that would like to do their business privately 3, nobody knows where they go, when they're coming and the deals that come back with a plane like this."
Defense 4 aircraft represent around half of this year's displays.

But for the average visitor looking for an aircraft of their own, the twin-engine DA62 by Austrian manufacturers Diamond Aircraft may be just the choice.
Martin Scherrer is the head of Flight Operations of the company. He says this all-composite, seven-seater is a perfect choice for private owners.
"This airplane is like an SUV in the air for private people, pilots, because it's very easy to fly and very easy to handle, while also using it for professional operations like air taxi operations or medical transport."
It's not just planes on offer at the show.
If visitors are after something even smaller, then this Martin Jetpack may be just the answer.
Martin Jetpack claims this is the world's first practical jetpack and says it's targeted at first responder industries.
The company's CEO, Peter Coker, claims their high-flying creation solves problems that other vehicles cannot.
"We can land in areas where the top of buildings where they're full of aerials, we can actually - if the place is big enough - get in through windows actually directly into the building itself. So, if you think about the high-rise buildings, you may have a problem with fire or anything else - great possibility of rescuing people using the jetpack."
The Dubai Airshow is seen as an increasingly important barometer 5 of the state of the aviation industry and the rising roles of the big-spending Gulf 6 carriers as they compete for routes and critical stopover traffic between Asia and Europe and to the Americas.
The Airshow runs from November 8th to 12th.
