Avfuel Corporation announced the addition of Aero Center Spokane (KGEG) and Aero Center Felts Field (KSFF)—both in Spokane, Washington—to its branded network of FBOs. The partnership comes as Aero Center Spokane, located at Spokane International Airport, opened its doors this fall, welcoming private aviators to a new premier service option in the Pacific Northwest. 

The addition of Aero Center Spokane and Felts Field furthers Avfuel' commitment to enhance its branded presence in strategic locations, making for the industry’s most robust branded fuel supply network for flight departments to fly and fuel within. With the adoption of the Avfuel brand, Aero Centers’ Washington FBOs further elevate the customer experience, offering competitive rates via Avfuel Contract Fuel, loyalty rewards via AVTRIP, and staff training via the FAA-approved Avfuel Training System.

Joel Hirst, Avfuel’s senior vice president of sales, commented: “We congratulate Aero Centers on the opening of its new, state-of-the-art FBO and are honored to partner with its team members at both Spokane FBOs as they serve this vibrant region with the aviation services to match. Aero Centers’ commitment to superior customer service aligns perfectly with Avfuel's core values. Together, we aim to exceed the expectations of pilots and passengers with streamlined services, reliable products and valuable programs.” 

Aero Center Spokane operates out of a new, 36,000-square-foot FBO and hangar facility with 1,200 square feet of office space and 27,000 square feet of hangar space able to accommodate aircraft up to a Global 7000.

Along with 94,418 square feet of ramp space, Aero Center Felts Field features 20,000 square feet of hangar space able to accommodate aircraft up to a Citation Excel. 

Both facilities feature 24-hour surveillance; a conference room with full A/V; a comfortable crew room and pilot lounge; a serene snooze room and shower facility; a modern, pet-friendly passenger lobby; and private workstations for business on the go.

As full-service FBOs, customers can expect the best in aviation services, including: Jet A, FSII and 100LL avgas service; self-serve Jet A and avgas at Felts Field; long- and short-term aircraft parking; ramp-side vehicle access; GPU VDC; potable water and ice service; lav service; concierge services; catering refrigeration and dishwashing; limousine and taxi service; weather planning service; courtesy crew cars and transportation; helicopter and medical/ambulance handling; VIP/head of state handling; after-hours support upon request; and trusted third-party access to aircraft detailing, maintenance and catering.

Furthermore, the availability of customs at Aero Center Spokane, along with its northern U.S. position, makes the company’s newest FBO a convenient U.S. departure and entry point for international operations.
