AVIAA has added an important new pillar to its business aviation services – a 110+-strong global FBO network.
The US and European-based company invited a variety of FBOs to participate in an RFP process in December, responding to demand from members to obtain valuable savings on their fuel costs in North America and associated FBO services worldwide. “We had an amazing response,” said AVIAA CEO Gillian Hayes, noting that after two months of close evaluation the full line up of participating partners have now been loaded on to the AVIAA Dashboard, enabling members to enjoy a range of preferred pricing, as and when they use them.
The newly selected US and Canadian locations join AVIAA’s established FBO partners in the UK, Europe, Middle East, and Asia for a robust network of over 100 locations and growing. Through the network, AVIAA members will receive exclusive pricing on fuel uplift at North American locations, in addition to discounts on handling and other services at all other destinations.
“Our preferred FBO network is a big part of our community building. Just like our jet owners and operators want to join together and aggregate their volume to streamline purchasing, these FBOs are committed to joining together and supporting our community as partners,” Gillian added. In the US, the growing FBO network includes big brands like Jet Aviation at Washington Dulles, Fontainebleau in Oppalocka, and Castle and Cooke, as well as small independent locations. Partners abroad include TAG Aviation, Jetex, Omni Handling, and Aviapartner Executive.
