International Flight Center (IFC) at Miami Executive Airport (KTMB) debuted its brand new FBO terminal, including marking the occasion with a special ribbon-cutting ceremony in the fourth quarter of last year. Modern, luxury facility was designed with travelers’ comfort and productivity in mind, featuring stylish lounges, private bed-and-bath snooze rooms, a 10-seat conference room with full A/V capabilities, and a café. Its bright, contemporary lobby welcomes guests with sleek accents and warm tones.

Wilfredo Valle, IFC’s president commented: “We couldn’t be more excited to welcome guests to our new facility. Every detail has been meticulously planned to create the ultimate private flying experience, complementing the industry-leading service our customers have come to know and trust from International Flight Center.”

Joe Taravella, regional manager southeastern U.S. for Avfuel Corporation, the FBO’s dedicated fuel supply partner, stated: “It isn’t often you are able to see someone accomplish a lifelong dream. Watching the Valle family bring this beautiful FBO to life has been inspiring. Avfuel is proud to support International Flight Center.”

This latest expansion follows the 2024 debut of IFC’s state-of-the-art hangar complex, boasting 84,000 square feet of space designed with clients’ needs in mind. Featuring 28,000 square feet per hangar, 28-foot doors, 24/7 surveillance and advanced safety features, the complex accommodates aircraft up to a Global 8000 and provides tenants with exclusive fuel, charter and maintenance pricing through IFC’s sister companies (Corporate Air Charter & Propel Aviation). Together with 550,000 square feet of ramp space, the complex provides a premier operational base in Miami.

Conveniently located on the southwest side of KTMB—adjacent to the U.S. Customs office and just 15 miles from downtown Miami—IFC offers travelers seamless access to the region’s top destinations. 

As an Avfuel-branded partner, International Flight Center provides customers with lucrative rewards with AVTRIP and competitive prices with Avfuel Contract Fuel. Customers will also benefit from transaction ease when using the Avfuel Pro Card at its FBO with the ability to put everything—fuel and non-fuel items with or without a fuel purchase—on one transaction, avoiding processing fees.
