Emerging Trends in Aviation Infrastructure

Aviation, without any doubt, is one of the more complex transportation segments and requires strategic Aviation Infrastructure Management to keep up with the long term, secular trend of increased general aviation and commercial traffic. With steep growth in the number of air travelers selecting private aviation in the last two decades, divergent performance metrics of the aviation system need overhaul in order to continue to meet increased demand. To address these requirements, professional aviation management companies review key performance indicators which determine the need for additional aviation infrastructure. Here is a quick look at some of the factors which are relevant to evaluating the need for additional or improved aviation infrastructure.

As we discuss emerging trends, we need highlight the use of data mining and predictive analytics and the role they plan in general aviation. Fixed Base Operators (FBOs), Aircraft Charter and Management (ACM) and Maintenance Repair and Overhaul (MRO) companies are all using more sophisticated customer relationship management software and artificial intelligence to address passenger needs. This data is useful for optimizing everything from the customer selection of type of aircraft, to minimizing passenger wait times during enplanement / deplanement, to the type of amenities offered in a general aviation terminal.  Aviation infrastructure is now designed to take into account passenger preferences through the use of this data and gives managers insight as to future capacity needs.

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.

At Global Aviation Infrastructure LLC, we take pride in offering bespoke management plans to meet every unique FBO management situation and competitive dynamic. We have over two decades of experience in successfully advising clients in the expansion of their aviation businesses.
