Jetex Flight Support (Booth 3001) is here at LABACE 2015 highlighting its new joint venture facility in Santiago, Chile. Under the recently signed agreement, Jetex and Chile-based Santiago FBO S.A. are jointly operating the FBO at Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL). The facility opened in June, just in time for the final matches of the Copa America soccer tournament that were held in Santiago.
The move expanded Jetex’s presence in Latin America beyond São Paulo, Brazil, where it provides fueling services and is establishing an operations center at Catarina Executive Airport with Brazilian real estate company JHSF. With the new Chile facility, customers operating in the region benefit from the combination of the Santiago FBO’s knowledge of the local marketplace and Jetex’s international trip-planning expertise, according to the companies.
Facilities at the new FBO include ground handling, aircraft parking, catering, fueling services and a VIP lounge, as well as a 1,400-sq-m (15,070-sq-ft) hangar. Immigration and customs clearance are also be available on site.
As part of its ongoing Latin America expansion strategy, Jetex said it will continue to create strategic alliances with local businesses in the region.
