AIX 2026 to feature new business aircraft interiors zone and celebrate 25th anniversary

Aircraft Interiors Expo 2026 (AIX) has shared more details about its new BizJet Interiors Zone at AIX 2026 which is taking place at the Hamburg Messe, Germany from 14–16 April 2026.

Dedicated to the fast-growing business aviation and emerging eVTOL sectors, the organisers say the zone will be located in a high-traffic area at the heart of the event, reflecting the growing importance of the BizJet sector. At this year’s AIX, 92 exhibitors showcased solutions focused on BizJet interiors which is a 53% increase from 2024.

Archana Dharni, Event Director of AIX, said: “For years, exhibitors have told us they wanted a dedicated space to showcase the artistry and innovation happening in business aviation. BizJets are the industry’s testbed. The place where exciting ideas and solutions debut long before they appear in commercial cabins, defining what’s possible for the industry.

“This means that visitors to the BizJet Interiors zone won’t just get a glimpse of the future of luxury cabin design, they’ll be experiencing the solutions that will genuinely shape the aircraft of tomorrow.”

Business aviation operators, charter companies, completion and refurbishment houses, designers, OEM and VIP procurement teams can meet at the zone, which will feature a curated selection of innovators meeting the evolving expectations of high-net-worth travellers.

“BizJet travellers today expect more. They demand a cabin environment that feels seamless, supports wellbeing, and adapts to their lifestyle, which is the highest level of comfort possible,” said Eric Beverage, Senior Director of Sales, CTT Systems.

“Our cabin humidification system directly addresses these needs, ensuring a healthier and more comfortable cabin environment. The BizJet Interiors Zone at AIX provides the perfect platform to showcase our expertise and connect with the people and companies shaping the next generation of tailored VVIP cabin experiences.”

The BizJet Interiors Zone will also showcase the finest materials, precision finishes, and bespoke design solutions that define modern VVIP cabins. Jet Aviation, for example, will showcase tailored cabin completions and Townsend Leather will present artisanal upholstery.

High Tech Finishing will demonstrate innovative surface treatments, PolyStone Creations will offer custom composite solutions, and SNT-Group Oy will bring premium seating and textile expertise, celebrating the artistry at the heart of business jet interiors.

When it comes to technologies designed to enhance passenger comfort, convenience, and safety in BizJet cabins, SmartTray and Timetooth Technologies will demonstrate digital systems that simplify cabin controls and personalise passenger experiences, CTT Systems will showcase its cabin environment solutions, including advanced humidification and anti-condensation systems.

Fokker Services B.V. will present advanced maintenance and modification capabilities – ensuring cabins are as safe, efficient, and comfortable as they are stylish.

The AIX 2026 show floor will feature many innovations that span both business and commercial aviation markets and solutions from the likes of Airbus UAM, Air X, Embraer, Joby Aviation, JSX, K5-Aviation and Springjet. There will also be a dedicated designer runway, providing a creative platform for leading designers to present BizJet-focused interior concepts.
