PRIVATE AVIATION GUIDE / 25 SEP 2026

The FBO detail
that matters.

Why an airport name alone is rarely enough for a private flight.

PUBLISHED 25 SEPTEMBER 2026 / TRAVEL GUIDE

A commercial terminal and a business aviation handling facility may sit at the same airport but have different access. Ask the aircraft operator for the actual passenger exit.

01

Start with the handler

The operator or broker should supply the FBO or handling agent name. Pass its full name and address to the car team. A chauffeur sent to a public terminal cannot assume access to a separate private aviation entrance.

  • Airfield
  • FBO or handling facility
  • Handler contact
02

Check any access reference

Some locations use a permission or access process. Only the handler can confirm where a vehicle may wait or whether airside access is arranged. Include any approved reference in the enquiry rather than leaving the chauffeur to infer it.

03

Describe who travels together

A principal, family, crew and luggage may leave separately. Count the travellers and cases for each vehicle. If there is a support vehicle, specify who coordinates the two collections.

04

Plan for moving times

Aircraft times can shift. A change of airfield or FBO is more significant than a small timing adjustment because the road destination for the chauffeur changes. Send confirmed updates promptly.

05

Give the onward address

The private flight may connect to a central London hotel, an office, Surrey residence or another airport. Include all stops and waiting so the ground leg is priced properly.
