The Importance of Aviation FBO Management Services


Aviation FBO management or aviation Fixed Base Operation (FBO) management services are critical for institutional asset owners who desire to maximize the value of their assets in the aviation industry. To understand the nature of these services, it is germane to know the services an FBO provides.

FBOs are responsible for providing a variety of critical services at an airport, whether it has commercial air service or is a general aviation airport. The FBO provides terminals for passenger movements and core line services such as the handling, hungering and fuelling of aircraft.

In addition to these core services, FBOs provide any number of additional services. Other technical services may include Maintenance Repair and Overhaul (MRO) of aircraft as well as Aircraft Charter and Management (ACM). Additional ancillary services include providing a passenger terminal with amenities such as a lobby and waiting areas, concierge service, flight planning areas, pilot rest areas, as well as conference and meeting rooms.  Non facility amenities include providing or arranging catering for a flight, arranging ground transportation, overnight accommodations and many other services.

FBO management companies are responsible for operational and financial oversight of these airport leasehold estates. Professional aviation management companies bring a wealth of industry leading best practices to on-airport service providers. With deep experience across a wide variety of airports, they can implement real time operational and financial reporting which provides accuracy and transparency for aviation asset owners.

Unlike commercial flights, general aviation aircraft and passenger movements are on demand. Therefore an FBO must be prepared to handle many dynamic situations. To satisfy the passenger experience and brand value proposition, the entire service team must be aligned with and led by the FBO management organization.
