Just ahead of Art Basel, and its busiest period of the year, Air Service Basel, an FBO at EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg, completed an extensive renovation of its facility, expanding the terminal by 1,000 sq ft. The FBO terminal now consists of two floors, with a second passenger and crew lounge overlooking the ramp area. A conference room was added, as were a crew lounge and snooze room. In addition, the customer rest rooms were modernized and upgraded with new showers. For this year’s art show, the company set a record, handling approximately 350 aircraft movements (15 percent more than last year), among them 80 private jet flights on the event’s peak day.
