Avfuel Corporation expanded its branded FBO network by adding Chantilly Air Jet Center (KHEF) in the D.C. metropolitn area as of April 1. Strategically positioned as a gateway to Washington, D.C., Chantilly Air Jet Center is widely recognized as the fastest “touchdown to downtown” option in the capital region, allowing passengers to bypass the congestion of major commercial airports, and reach downtown with speed and ease. 

As the premier FBO at KHEF, Chantilly Air Jet Center boasts a state-of-the-art facility and full lineup of services designed for aircraft owners, passengers and flight crews, including: fueling, hangar space for some of business aviation’s largest aircraft (e.g., Global 7500 and G800), maintenance, and personalized concierge support, all backed by decades of aviation expertise and a strong commitment to safety. Whether for business or leisure travel, Chantilly Air Jet Center offers a seamless, time-saving alternative for those who value efficiency, privacy and direct access to the nation’s capital.

Jonathan Boyle, Avfuel’s vice president of contract fuel and bulk fuel sales commented: “Chantilly Air Jet Center represents the caliber of service and operational excellence we strive to bring to our branded network. Its modern facility and customer-focused approach strengthen aviation service offerings in the Capital Region while delivering added value and reliability to customers.”

Tim Sullivan, COO stated: “Joining the Avfuel Network marks a key advancement for Chantilly Air Jet Center. Avfuel’s expertise will improve our fueling solutions while ensuring guests receive the personalized service they expect. This partnership fosters reliable relationships with transparent pricing and ongoing value.” 

In addition to Chantilly Air’s full-service jet center, the company also offers: aircraft management, aircraft charter, maintenance through its own on-site MRO—as well as Duncan Aviation—and 60,000 square feet of climate-controlled, secure storage for large aircraft, featuring fire suppression and 24/7 surveillance. Furthermore, customers can go from landing to ramp parking in under four minutes, and take advantage of valet and planeside service for maximum convenience. 

Those entering the facility are greeted by modern amenities, including a sophisticated lobby, well-appointed pilot and passenger spaces, and attentive service. Pilots benefit from a dedicated lounge featuring workstations, comfortable seating and a premium fitness center, while two fully-equipped conference rooms (with A/V capabilities and combined seating for 20) accommodate business needs efficiently. 

Chantilly Air Jet Center is conveniently located within the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area 12 miles south of Washington Dulles Airport with easier access to the nation’s capital thanks to its location near the Washington Expressway. Both business and leisure travelers can use on-site rental and crew cars to explore the region's historic sites, famous landmarks and scenic beauty. As part of the Avfuel Network, Chantilly Air Jet Center customers can now enjoy lucrative AVTRIP rewards, competitive pricing through Avfuel Contract Fuel, and streamlined transactions with the Avfuel Pro Card—allowing fuel and non-fuel purchases to be consolidated into a single transaction without processing fees.
