Landmark Consolidates at New Orleans

Landmark has reached a deal to purchase the Hawthorne Global Aviation FBO at New Orleans Lakefront Airport and added it to its facility there, a move that will reduce the number of service providers at the Big Easy’s business airport to just itself and Flightline First. According to one source at the airport, those two providers had of late split the lion’s share of fuel sales at Lakefront. Once complete, the deal will nearly double Landmark’s hangar space at the dedicated business airport to nearly 110,000 sq ft. The aviation committee of the New Orleans Levy Board approved the sale and the transfer of the lease on April 9. The value of the deal was not disclosed.
