WHO
Laurent
After over 15 years of experience in sales and project development in the perfume and chemical industry throughout Asia, Africa and the USA, Laurent Détroyat decided, 10 years ago, to reorient his professional life through his passion for aviation.
He first developed from Geneva, with his partners, LunaJets, a brokerage platform providing charter flight hours. This development lead LunaJets to a prominent position on the private jet charter market in Europe.
His technical savviness made him move into the operation part of the industry by joining DC-Aviation, the first German private jet operator. Leading sales and operational organization in the best interest of team efficiency is what made him decided to develop Détroyat Aviation.

remember that the airplane takes off
against the wind, not with it
