Jet Aviation completes renovation of Houston Hobby lobby
The project comprised an extensive overhaul of the facility, including increasing passenger areas and amenities.
The lobby renovation began in Q4 2022 and was completed in just under one year.

Jet Aviation has completed a full renovation of its lobby at William P Hobby airport FBO in Houston, Texas.

The new space is designed to meet the company's refreshed brand standards with a minimal, light and elegant design. Renovations include increasing customer areas by some 500sq ft and adding amenities including a refreshment cafe, upgrades to the pilot lounges and flight planning area, and dedicated employee facilities.

“As part of our continued investment in the facilities across our network, we are pleased to announce the completion of our lobby renovation at Houston Hobby airport,” says Richard Layson, vice president FBO operations in the Americas. “This new lobby, along with our 80,000sq ft of hangar space and aircraft canopy, the only one at the airport, further demonstrates our ongoing commitment to continue as partner of choice for our customers.”

Houston joined the Jet Aviation network in 2012. The renovation of the 6,362sq ft lobby began in Q4 2022 and was completed in just under one year. The build was finalised in stages to ensure full operation throughout.

The updated facility is part of a larger effort by Jet Aviation to ensure an effortless customer experience across its global network, including the opening of a new hangar in Bozeman, Montana in September of this year, a new hangar in Scottsdale, Arizona completed in June and the remodelling of the lobby of its Teterboro, New Jersey FBO in March.
