These airports and facilities frequently host private jets used in luxury productions and aviation content creation. Availability depends on aircraft positioning, airport permissions, and production requirements.

All commercial filming in Dubai requires a permit from the Dubai Film and TV Commission (DFTC), which is the sole entity authorized to issue shooting permits for media production in the emirate, whether on public or private property. For photoshoots involving aircraft and airport infrastructure, additional approvals from the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) and airport operators may be required. Ari Jets works with local production fixers and permit specialists to ensure that all necessary approvals are obtained prior to the shoot, minimizing administrative burdens for the production team. It is important to note that filming at Dubai International Airport (DXB) passenger terminals is strictly prohibited without explicit security and media clearance.
