Skyservice Business Aviation (Skyservice) has begun construction on a 60,000 ft² fixed-base operator (FBO) and hangar complex at Napa County Airport (APC).
“We are thrilled to begin construction of our new private jet centre in Napa,” said Skyservice President and CEO Benjamin Murray. “Napa is a truly remarkable region in the United States, celebrated for its exceptional wines, culinary mastery, and luxurious accommodations. Now is the ideal moment to connect the local business aviation community with a private jet centre that aligns with the esteemed reputation of this region.”
The development, situated on a 15-acre parcel of land, will feature a luxury FBO facility, a rooftop restaurant for casual dining, events and parties, office space, a 40,000-square-foot hangar, and a nine-acre ramp. The hangar will include 28-foot-high doors to accommodate the latest jet models from Bombardier, Dassault and Gulfstream, while also catering to the general aviation community at the airport.
“Today marks a significant milestone for Napa County and our vision to redevelop the airport,” said Joelle Gallagher, Chair of the Napa County Board of Supervisors. “With this groundbreaking, we are one step closer to seeing the expansion and modernisation of the airport come to life, which will also help create jobs and support our local economy. Skyservice is a valued partner in the pursuit of sustainable aviation operations.”
While construction is underway, Skyservice will continue to provide comprehensive FBO services, including ground handling, aircraft refuelling, lounge amenities, flight crew lounges and sleep rooms and ground transportation.
The construction of the Skyservice Napa FBO is expected to be completed by late 2025.
