The Hamilton FBO, along with a previously announced London, Ontario FBO, both set to open in 2025, will join FlyXcite's existing hubs in Toronto, Texas and New Jersey, where the company serves thousands of travellers.
It's shovels at the ready as Biddle Carson breaks ground.

Private jet services provider FlyXcite has broken ground on its latest FBO facility at Hamilton International airport in Ontario, Canada as part of its global expansion strategy. The new facility will enhance FlyXcite's premium offerings, including its 24/7 white glove concierge service.

The new Hamilton FBO, along with a previously announced London, Ontario FBO, both set to open in 2025, will join FlyXcite's existing hubs in Toronto, Texas and New Jersey, where the company serves travellers across North America and around the world.

The Hamilton FBO facility will offer exclusive amenities tailored to deliver an elevated experience. Designed to cater to an international clientele, the new FBO will feature luxury lounges, high-end catering options and private meeting spaces for business travellers on the go. The facility's design will ensure seamless private jet travel.

“Our expansion into Hamilton and London demonstrates our dedication to providing an exceptional aviation experience,” says Scott Biddle, CEO of FlyXcite. “With our 24/7 white glove concierge service, we ensure that every aspect of our clients' journey is meticulously managed, allowing them to enjoy unparalleled service regardless of their destination.”

FlyXcite's concierge team is available around the clock to manage all travel details, from in-flight catering to ground transportation and last-minute arrangements.

Biddle Carson Developments, a Canadian property developer specialising in industrial, residential and mixed-use developments, owns the Hamilton development, as part of an ongoing strategy to invest in innovative infrastructure projects that foster growth in high-potential industries like aviation. The project is expected to bring significant economic benefits to the region, including job creation and an increase in international traffic.

“The Hamilton Airport FBO represents a significant step forward in our commitment to driving economic growth and innovation in aviation,” says Biddle, who is president of BC Developments. “This facility will not only provide world-class services to our clients but also solidify Hamilton as a key hub in Canada's aviation landscape. We are proud to partner with top-tier tenants like FlyXcite, and we look forward to seeing the positive impact this development will have on the region.”

Biddle Carson has already secured two tenants for the hangar space with FlyXcite occupying 30,000 sq ft and bespoke helicopter and fixed wing completion specialists Aerofina Aviation, occupying 20,000 sq ft. The third 50,000 sq ft hangar is scheduled to be available for occupancy within the next two years. A phased approach to construction will see the first phase of the facility expected to be completed in late 2025.
