Jet Aviation has broken ground at its new FBO and hangar facility at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport.

The facility will feature two large, private use hangars, and on-site US Customs and Border Protection.

The 27-acre facility will be situated on the west side of the airfield and feature a newly-constructed 8,500 square-foot FBO that will be Silver LEED certified, a ramp totaling 540,000 square feet that is able to accommodate large-cabin business jets, and a 4,800 square-foot space for dedicated on-site US Customs and Border Protection.

In addition, two 20,000 square-foot, private use hangars, each with hangar office support, will be constructed.

The hangars have capacity for multiple large cabin and ultra-long range business jets and will benefit from handling through the Jet Aviation FBO.

“Adding Miami to our network is key to further strengthening our footprint in the US,” said David Best, senior vice president regional operations Americas.

“We are committed to growing in locations where our customers want us to be. Florida is an important destination for business aviation and we are excited to continue the legacy of seamless service that we have built in Palm Beach since 1985.”

Construction is underway of the FBO ramp, taxiway connections, and fuel farm.

The facility will also offer sustainable aviation fuel via Jet Aviation’s global Book & Claim program, with the intention to move to a physical supply once the site is operational.

“We are incredibly excited to have begun construction on our new FBO in Opa-Locka,” said Richard Layson vice president FBO operations Americas.

“The facility is built with our customers’ specific requirements in mind, including a private entrance and dedicated US Customs and Border Protection. In addition, we are delighted to be able to offer two private, large, state-of-the-art hangars with capacity to accommodate several large cabin business jets simultaneously, providing a well-located base for customers in the region.”

The first phase of operation is scheduled to commence in Q3 2025.
