FBO services provider Hadid has upgraded its facilities at the Riviera airport in Albenga, Italy, having first assumed responsibility for the terminal in April 2018. Hadid now offers a suite of aviation services as well as luxuriously furnished executive lounge facilities through its Italian subsidiary.

As one of the most exclusive executive lounges within the Hadid portfolio, Hadid Riviera caters to its distinctive clientele, with exceptional customer service provided by a team of well-trained, dedicated staff members.

The company says that in these challenging times when safe travel is a top priority, executive clients worldwide are looking for viable alternatives to airports with large agglomerations of travelling crowds. One of the advantages highlighted by clients when travelling via Riviera airport, it says, has been the smoother disembarking and boarding process. After a long trip, the upmarket, comfortable furniture and amenities present at the executive terminal make it easy for the business or leisure traveller alike to immediately feel at ease in the relaxed atmosphere that it provides.

The airport is situated within Villanova d'Albenga. The area is cradled between mountains on one side and the sea. It is convenient for passengers seeking excellent connectivity, especially during the pandemic, to cities like Monaco, the Italian and French Rivieras, Monte-Carlo, Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Genoa. Some of the services offered to travellers from all over the world are fast-track transfers, on-site customs and immigration clearing and professional ground services with short turnaround times.

The Hadid Riviera facility has been upgraded with passenger and crew lounges and is fully equipped and upgraded with conveniences such as food and beverage options, a meeting room and computers in a safe and secure atmosphere. Clients making use of the executive lounge will also find it reminiscent of an art gallery. The inspiring space at Hadid Riviera features Italian contemporary art and a bespoke art library.

Attention has also been paid to the requirements of private aircraft owners and operators. Certified and vetted staff, utilising high-tech industry standard flight systems, deliver all the aviation services, accessible in one place. The aviation and executive lounge services include flight permits, flight planning, ground handling, fuelling, concierge, air charter, including medical evacuations and arrangements for VIP helicopters, and limo services.
