Surat is the world's largest diamond cutting and polishing centre — processing over 90% of the world's rough diamonds — and India's largest textile and synthetic fabric hub. The concentration of ultra-wealthy diamond merchants, textile barons, and traders makes Surat one of India's most significant private aviation origins relative to its city size.
Airport: Surat Airport (STV) — a growing business aviation origin. The airport has limited capacity for larger aircraft; confirm aircraft suitability at time of booking. Some charters operate via Ahmedabad (AMD) for larger jet requirements.

| Surat → Dubai | 1,150 nm | ~2.2 hrs | Super Midsize |
