ExecuJet is expanding its
presence in Sydney, Australia, with the acquisition of an FBO to complement its
existing maintenance, flight operations and administration facility.
The recently renovated FBO
is located at Sydney’s Kingsford-Smith Airport, just 12km from the city centre,
and consists of a dedicated VIP guest lounge, passenger amenities and private
meeting rooms for guests in transit and Customs & Immigration processing
facilities.
The facility will provide
passengers with an array of VIP services and amenities with a comfortable place
to relax before boarding.

Ten years of operations in
Melbourne
ExecuJet Melbourne -
celebrating its tenth anniversary this week - offers MRO, FBO and Aircraft
Operations services. The MRO houses a 2,700m2 facility, workshops and stores,
supporting Melbourne-based and visiting aircraft.
In 2011, the company
expanded its services to include an FBO, providing passengers with VIP services
and amenities from a dedicated, purpose-built VIP lounge.
Darren McGoldrick
says, “We are delighted to be celebrating this significant landmark here in
Melbourne. Our decade of successful growth reflects ExecuJet’s commitment to
quality, safety and service, which saw our MRO win Bombardier’s ‘Best Line
Maintenance Facility’ award in 2014. The credit must go to our staff who have
worked tirelessly in providing the excellent service that has attracted
customers and ensured they have continued to use ExecuJet. We must also thank
our customers who have been extremely loyal to us over the 10 years and enabled
us to grow.”
