An Fixed Base Operator (FBO) is a service provider operating at an airport that offers ground handling and operational support to business aviation and general aviation aircraft. FBOs typically operate fixed facilities such as ramps, hangars, fueling systems, and private jet terminals, providing services including aircraft fueling, parking and ramp handling, flight support, aircraft maintenance, and passenger and crew services. FBOs play a critical role in supporting global business aviation and general aviation operations.

FBOs are gradually expanding their service offerings to include not only traditional basic services, but also pilot lounges, meeting rooms, catering services, car rental services, flight support and aircraft maintenance. These additional services increase customer satisfaction and provide FBOs with additional revenue streams.The FBO industry is increasingly relying on digital technologies to improve efficiency and customer experience. Technologies such as online bookings, mobile apps, self-service terminals and e-payments are widely used to streamline processes and provide more convenient services. Environmental and sustainability issues are a growing concern in the FBO industry. A number of FBOs have started to adopt environmentally friendly measures such as renewable fuel supply, energy efficiency improvements and waste management to minimise their impact on the environment. As competition in the aviation market has increased, so has competition among FBOs. This has prompted some FBOs to continuously improve their service quality and customer experience to attract more customers.
