Eurojet opens operations centre with full service FBO and snooze room
Eurojet Aviation has opened its 41,000 sq ft business aviation centre at Birmingham airport with a full service FBO, commercial operations centre and aircraft sales suite, hangarage and maintenance facility.

Eurojet Aviation has opened its 41,000 sq ft business aviation centre at Birmingham airport with a full service FBO, commercial operations centre and aircraft sales suite, hangarage and maintenance facility.

Eurojet chief pilot Mike Rawcliffe believes the facility makes a compelling argument for operators and pilots to consider using the FBO at Birmingham airport, saying: "Attention has not only been made to the vip passenger areas but also to the crew-only areas, facilities here are second to none. Already the 'snooze rooms' and crew kitchen are proving popular with our visiting crews."

The FBO will join the Avfuel-branded affiliate FBO network so that ground-handling teams will have an enhanced fuel supply offering for private aviation customers. Avfuel has a presence in more than 2,000 locations worldwide and is recognised as a market leader in its sector. Eurojet is the company's first European affiliate.

"The affiliation with Avfuel is a strong selling point," says Rawcliffe. "In addition to being able to call upon its own dedicated bowser, refuelling reward cards mean aircrew can gain loyalty points as well as benefit from competitive fuel prices."

In addition to vip passenger lounges, the complex includes crew lounge and kitchen, private studies, flight planning room, shower facilities and a 'snooze room' with three individual softly-lit dens.

Managing director Graeme Campbell says: "Our mission goal was simple – to create the finest private aviation facility in Europe. With the support of Birmingham airport and a range of stakeholders and suppliers, we are confident that we have achieved this."

Eurojet operates a managed charter fleet that includes the Citation Bravo, Excel/XLS and Sovereign aircraft with bases throughout the UK and Ireland, including Belfast, Birmingham, London and Dublin.
