Switzerland-based Jet Aviation has added an FBO to its roster of bases serving neighboring Germany, with the opening of a new facility at Munich International Airport. It joins locations in Berlin and Dusseldorf. “We are pleased to add Munich to our FBO network because of its importance to business aviation in Germany,” said Frank Kusserow, the company’s managing director in Germany. “There are a number of major stock-listed companies in the region for which access to business aviation is essential.”

The facility provides fueling, cleaning and de-icing, passenger handling, on-site immigration and customs service, ground transportation and hotel and catering coordination. Among the amenities offered are an executive lounge and conference room, a crew lounge with snooze room, showers and flight-planning facilities. The company currently lists 17 FBO locations worldwide, six of them in the U.S.
