Atlantic Aviation has debuted its new FBO at Nashville International Airport (KBNA). The 12,000-sq-ft terminal replaces the former 8,600-sq-ft structure that was demolished earlier this year to make room for additional ramp space.
In addition to the lobby waiting area, the facility features a private VIP passenger lounge with direct ramp access, a business center furnished with the latest technology, two conference rooms, an expanded crew lounge with quiet rooms and shower facilities, a well-stocked refreshment bar, dining/food vending area, and a porte-cochère to protect customers from the elements.
In addition, the now nearly 25-acre complex includes a newly-built 30,000-sq-ft heated hangar that can handle the latest ultra-long-range business jets and features a separate ramp with bus access and walk-through security screening to accommodate sports team charters and other high-capacity flights. This brings the facility to 80,000 sq ft of hangar space.
As part of the FBO’s redevelopment, the company also replaced the fuel farm, which can now handle 60,000 gallons of jet-A and 10,000 gallons of avgas.
On the staff side, the LEED-certified terminal also has an expanded training area and unobstructed views of the ramp to enhance accessibility and safety.
“We’re focused on meaningfully enhancing the value and overall experience we offer our customers in Nashville,” said Kris Mayle, Atlantic’s area director for the southeast region. “Our new facility at BNA is indicative of the higher levels of service, safety, and peace of mind we pride ourselves on providing at every Atlantic location, and it's an outstanding example of our ongoing commitment to consistently exceed customer expectations.”
