Landings and departures from one Caribbean archipelago will be enhanced with the backing of Avfuel now that Blue Heron Aviation FBO has joined its network.
Blue Heron Aviation in the Turks and Caicos has joined Avfuel's network of independent FBOs.

Avfuel has welcomed Blue Heron Aviation to its branded network of independent FBOs, which offers operators the benefit of programmes such as Contract Fuel and AVTRIP rewards. Under private ownership since opening its doors in 2014, the FBO operates from Providenciales International airport in the Turks and Caicos Isalnds as part of the Signature Select network..

“Our ethos is safety and service first,” says Blue Heron Aviation general manager Roger Murphy. “This ethos permeates every decision we make, including that of partnering with Avfuel as a branded location, as it also embraces a customer-first approach. This can only benefit our operation and those who choose to fly in to our FBO. Our customers will continue to enjoy everything they love about Blue Heron Aviation now, but with the added benefit of Avfuel solutions backing our operation, including fuel and loyalty rewards.”

Conveniently located mid-field on the south side of the runway, Blue Heron Aviation provides expedited departures and quick access to everything on the island, all within 20 minutes. The FBO features a 7,000 sq ft building and 12 acres of paved aircraft parking, which can accommodate aircraft up to a Boeing 757-200. Its team has more than a decade of professional ground handling and fuelling experience, and available services include in-house customs and immigration, concierge services, aircraft cabin cleaning, catering, coffee and ice, foreign newspapers, dishes, laundry, a luxury lounge and conference room.

Avfuel Corporation vice president of sales Joel Hirst says: “We’re pleased to welcome this upstanding operation to our family of Avfuel-branded locations. Blue Heron Aviation provides operators a premier experience in a key destination location and we’re proud to raise the Avfuel sign as partners.”
