Odyssey Aviation North America has been rebranded as Velocity FBO Network by its new ownership. The trio of FBOs was purchased at the beginning of the year by independent investment firm Tallvine Partners to form the nucleus of a larger service provider chain. The new locations under the Velocity name include Central Florida’s Kissimmee Gateway Airport (KISM), Detroit-area Willow Run Airport (KYIP), and St. Simons Island Airport (KSSI) in Georgia.
Velocity CEO Chad Farischon expects to announce several additions to the network over the coming months. “This rebrand marks an exciting new era for our team and our customers,” he said. “Our partnership with Odyssey Bahamas has been a meaningful part of our success, and with Tallvine’s support, we’re excited to continue to expand through a focused and thoughtful approach under the Velocity brand.”
The U.S. and Bahamian Odyssey locations first collaborated more than a decade and a half ago. While each will now operate as separate entities, they will continue to cooperate in marketing efforts to shared customers.
“We are thrilled to support this rebranding, which sets a clear course for continued growth and leadership in the FBO space,” said Tallvine operating director Ed Zwirn. “This reflects not only the strength of the company’s legacy, but also its forward-looking vision for delivering exceptional service, operational excellence, and an elevated experience for customers.”
