World-Class FBO Facilities. Exceptional Service.

FBO is an acronym for fixed base operator. In short, an FBO is a commercial entity that is permitted to provide aeronautical services like ground and flight instruction, fueling, storage, maintenance, and more. They offer their services for both private flight crews as well as commercial flight crews.

FBO facilities offer passengers basic amenities, while others offer luxury lounges for their customers. Many FBO services have lounges where customers can wait for their flights before departure; some even provide sleeping facilities, shower facilities, gift stores, car rental desks, and private meeting rooms.

An FBO is a private facility that leases land from an airport. In other words, it’s a privately owned company permitted to operate in an airport facility. You can think of FBOs as private jet terminals. Generally, airports are publicly owned facilities used by public entities, including local, regional, or state authorities.

The services an FBO provides help to make flying privately a seamless and luxurious experience. It’s important to note that the services provided by each FBO can vary. However, FBOs generally offer fueling, ground handling, ramp services, lavatory services, catering, conference rooms, lounges, aircraft sales, parking, maintenance, line services, baggage handling, and more. Beyond some basic services, FBOs can offer additional amenities such as immigration clearance and on-site customs. An FBO offers these services for flight crew, passengers, and aircraft owners. Air 7 offers world-class amenities that many customers agree set us apart, such as our luxury pilot lounge, courtesy transportation, aircraft sales department, crew car, and much more.

Yes, there can be more than one FBO at an airport. The amount of FBOs operating at an airport often depends on the size; in some airports, there may be just one. When operating a private jet, you can choose which FBO you’d like to use. In many cases, passengers have a preference based on their services. At Air 7, we’re proud to be a full-service FBO offering luxury amenities to airline crew and passengers.

When you think of flying, you probably imagine standing in long lines for intense security before boarding an aircraft. While that may be the case for flying on a commercial airline, security at an FBO airport is much different. Due to industry changes and outlines from the TSA, all passengers boarding any aircraft must undergo safety and security screenings. On private jets, however, they are often less stringent. These safety screenings are also much faster in FBOs than in commercial airports, and you’ll be on the aircraft in no time. Two of the biggest advantages of flying privately are its ease and flexibility. For many people, the most significant difference is the ability to load an aircraft without the extensive TSA checks.
