Jet Aviation has acquired Ross Aviation’s Fixed Base Operation (FBO) at Washington Dulles International Airport.
Jet Aviation announced the acquisition of Ross Aviation’s FBO location at Washington Dulles International Airport, one of the world's most active business aviation markets.
With more than 20 FBO operations worldwide, the addition of Washington Dulles allows Jet Aviation to meet increasing demand for high-quality, customer-oriented FBO services. Jet Aviation’s Washington Dulles facility encompasses six hangars, 10 acres of ramp space and a newly renovated best-in-class FBO terminal building that includes on-site Customs and Immigration clearance, VIP lounge, flight planning centre, executive conference room and on-site car rental.
“We are delighted to expand our FBO network in the US to include Washington Dulles International Airport,” said Jet Aviation Group President Rob Smith.
“Washington Dulles is well connected to Jet Aviation's other US locations, particularly Teterboro Airport, and with a large volume of international traffic it’s a significant expansion of our global network. Jet Aviation’s unparalleled hospitality and premium customer service makes us a great addition to Washington Dulles, just in time for the Presidential Inauguration.” The newest addition to Jet Aviation’s global FBO network will be the company’s ninth location in the Americas.
Jet Aviation, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics, was founded in Basel, Switzerland in 1967 and is one of the leading business aviation services companies in the world.
Close to 4,500 employees cater to client needs from more than 25 airport facilities throughout Europe, the Middle East, Asia, North America and the Caribbean. The company provides maintenance, completions and refurbishment, engineering, FBO and fuel services, along with aircraft management, charter and staffing services.
Jet Aviation's European and US aircraft management and charter divisions jointly operate a fleet of close to 300 aircraft.
