The Baltic Air Charter Association (BACA) recently named Avfuel-branded Eurojet at Birmingham Airport “Best Handling Agent/FBO” at the network’s annual Excellence Awards luncheon. A record number of votes were cast online for this year’s award recipients. BACA is the world’s largest network for the air charter market. Members include air charter brokers, airports, airlines, business aircraft operators, handling agents, aviation lawyers and consultants. “Our members continue to provide the highest standards in the air charter market and the winners of each award, as well as those shortlisted, should be rightly proud of their services,” said Tony Coe, BACA chairman. Eurojet, a leading aircraft management, charter and maintenance company, has created one of Europe’s finest private aviation facilities in Birmingham. A £5 million, 41,000 square-foot facility completed in 2012 houses an Authorized Cessna Citation Service Facility, commercial operations center, aircraft sales suite and the full-service FBO, which boasts luxurious VIP passenger lounges, crew lounge, crew kitchen, private studies, flight planning room, shower facilities, and a unique 'snooze room' with individual, softly-lit dens. The partnership with Avfuel allows Eurojet to offer Avfuel’s popular pilot programs, including Avfuel Contract Fuel and AVTRIP Rewards, increasing appeal to pilots and flight departments. “Over the past several years, Eurojet has worked tirelessly to enhance the general aviation experience at Birmingham Airport,” said Eurojet's Managing Director, Graeme Campbell. “Our newly-built facility provides a high-end, comfortable environment while our partnership with Avfuel enhances and expands our offerings to the flying community. Both Avfuel and Eurojet strive to fuse luxury and convenience for guests of Eurojet Birmingham. This recognition from BACA validates our hard work.” Avfuel Vice President, Marketing, Marci Ammerman agrees: “Avfuel is thrilled to be part of the portfolio of products, programs and systems that make Eurojet Birmingham a favorite of travelers,” she said. “We are honored that our valued partner has been recognized in this fashion.”
