The Standard Aviation team proudly maintains the brand standards expected of the Air Elite group.
COMPANY HISTORY
Standard Aviation began a fuel operation at Cyril E. King Airport in 2016. A site was selected to create a unique offering, a world-class FBO as a gateway for the numerous U.S. and British Virgin Islands nearby. While Hurricane Irma in 2017 delayed construction of the full-scale facility, the team did not waiver, facilitating military rescue operations and staging animal rescues.
OPENED IN JULY 2020
In partnership with the Virgin Islands Port Authority, Standard Aviation opened doors to a completed, state-of-the-art facility in July 2020. Including a 26,000 square foot hangar, luxurious lobby, and crew amenities, it set a new standard for private aviation in the region. Created with pilots in-mind, an inviting crew rest area and well-appointed flight planning room await their arrival. A full kitchen and helpful amenities like laundry machines and a dishwasher may be found upstairs at the FBO.
Named part of the Air Elite group by World Fuel Services, Standard Aviation ranks among the top 75 FBOs in the WFS portfolio of more than 8,000 locations in 145 countries. Selected for superior facilities and unparalleled customer service, the Standard Aviation team proudly maintains the brand standards expected of the Air Elite group. Recognized as a preferred FBO of the Corporate Aircraft Association (CAA) and by National Air Transportation Association (NATA), Standard Aviation is a trusted partner of the most discerning groups of professional aviators.
