Signature Flight Support has introduced permanent supplies of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) for retail sale at its Vail Valley Jet Center FBO at Colorado’s Eagle County Regional Airport.
The leading provider of SAF to the private aviation industry, Signature has pumped more than six million gallons of renewable fuel since it first introduced permanent supplies at its San Francisco International Airport location back in September 2020. Its Signature Renew-branded SAF blend offers 25 percent less CO2 emissions than conventional jet fuel, and Vail Valley Jet Center customers who purchase it will receive verified carbon reduction certification, which will comply with stringent recordkeeping standards.
“The interest of our customers in adding SAF to their sustainability plans has been climbing,” noted Signature Aviation CEO Tony Lefebvre, who added that the company is planning to bring SAF to its FBOs at other nearby airports. “With the expansion of Signature Renew SAF with our partners at the Eagle County Regional Airport, we’re not only demonstrating our commitment to the Vail community and central Colorado but [to] the environment at large.”
Signature, the world’s largest FBO chain, now offers 12 SAF locations, nine in the U.S. and three in the UK. According to AirNav, nearly 20 FBOs in the U.S. now regularly list SAF pricing in addition to jet-A.
