Stuart Jet Center
recently broke ground on two new hangars in preparation for a busy
2017 winter season.
Both hangars will
measure 25,000 square feet and will be able to accommodate aircraft
up to a G-650 and Global Express. The project will include an
additional 11,000 square feet of adjoining, class-A,
hangar-accessible office and shop space for tenant convenience and
lease. The new hangar and office spaces will be available for
occupancy in November 2017, just in time for the peak season’s
influx of traffic.
“We’re always looking for
opportunities to expand and better serve our customers,” said
Dan Capen,
president of Stuart Jet Center. “These new hangars, complete with
office space, will give us the space we need to accommodate the
growth of Stuart and our customer base, particularly as we head into
the winter months.”
While Stuart Jet Center
always expects an increase in customers looking to escape the cold
of winter, this year the FBO is preparing for even more traffic as
the designated West Palm Beach (KPBI) alternative when TFR
restrictions are in place - as happens often when the president
visits his Mar-a-Lago home - offering a short drive from the FBO
facility to guests’ final Palm Beach destination.
In addition to its
facility expansion, Stuart Jet Center will also expand its services
with U.S. Customs in the first quarter of 2018. |
