FBOs (Fixed-Base Operators)

Fixed-Base Operators (FBOs) are businesses that provide services to private and commercial aircraft at airports. They offer a range of amenities and support, including fueling, maintenance, hangaring, aircraft cleaning, flight planning, and passenger services. Essentially, FBOs ensure that pilots and passengers have necessary services for smooth, efficient air travel. They operate within airports but are independent from airlines or airport management, focusing specifically on the needs of aircraft owners and travelers. Their goal is to provide a seamless, comfortable experience for those using private or charter aircraft.
