The Skycare FBO at New Zealand’s Auckland Airport has rebranded under the Swissport Executive Aviation name. Swissport International acquired the FBO’s parent company, Aerocare, in March 2018. The Auckland facility includes a terminal with VIP lounge, concierge service, and in-house customs, immigration, and baggage screening.

Swissport handles more than 24,000 flights a year at more than 90 airports in 25 countries and has concierge staff at 32 airports in Australia and New Zealand.

“We have operated locally since 1987, delivering expert services at more than 47 locations throughout New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific Islands,” said Rob D’Alessio, Swissport’s senior v-p for the region. “Joining the global network and operating under the well known and trusted Swissport Executive Aviation brand will benefit our new and existing customers and set the benchmark for safety and seamless international service.”
