Jet Aviation has acquired Jet In’s FBO and ground handling operation at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) in Wisconsin. The FBO provides handling, fuelling and services for passengers and crew.
The FBO was opened in 2023 and features a 10,000ft² passenger terminal, 40,000ft² of aircraft hangarage, a 10,000ft² maintenance shop, and more than three acres of dedicated ramp space. With the acquisition, Jet Aviation acquires all assets of the FBO operation.
“Across our network, we are continuously looking for ways to strengthen our presence and provide even more seamless connections for our customers,” said Jeremie Caillet, president, Jet Aviation. “Milwaukee allows us to offer a gateway into the Upper Midwest region in a market where we know our customers are travelling, and where we also have aircraft based. It furthers our growth in the US and supports our vision of enabling global flight, with passion, where and when our customers need us.”
“Jet In have built a fantastic facility and team in the area, and share our commitment to the highest standards of safety and service quality,” Caillet continued. “We look forward to building on this as the facility and team join our global network.”
The Milwaukee site joins Jet Aviation’s network of some 30 FBOs worldwide, with 10 in the USA. In addition to FBO handling, Jet Aviation offers global business aviation services including maintenance, management, charter, staffing and completion.
