Signature Flight Support marked the reopening of its FBO at Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) yesterday afternoon. The four-month renovation project saw the expansion of the facility’s lobby to 3,700 sq ft from 2,000 sq ft, with a new fireplace; internet bar; modernized customer service representative workspace; upgraded sound system and bathrooms; and broadened coffee bar. The pilot’s lounge, shower facilities and flight-planning areas were also enlarged.

One of two FBOs at Chicago Midway, Signature occupies 17 acres on the west side of the airfield and provides the terminal, 190,000 sq ft of hangar space—sized to accommodate aircraft up to a Global 6000—and ramp and vehicle parking. Signature also operates the lone FBO at Chicago O'Hare International Airport.
