CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA / MAY 30, 2014 / INTERNATIONAL AVIATION NEWS / Avfuel Corporation and Million Air Calgary have announced that Million Air Calgary has joined Avfuel’s network of branded FBOs. As an Avfuel-branded dealer, Million Air Calgary will have access to Avfuel’s proprietary operational and training systems, as well as offering Avfuel Contract Fuel and participating in the AVTRIP loyalty rewards program.

“Avfuel is elated to partner with Million Air Calgary,” said Avfuel Vice President, Marketing, Marci Ammerman. “Like Avfuel, Million Air strives to enhance the aviation experience. In keeping with both the Avfuel and Million Air brands, the atmosphere and service at the Calgary facility is top-notch.”

“We are honoured to have teamed up with the Avfuel Team. The synergies between our cultures have helped serve our customers with the highest level of service,” said Arantza Corcuera, General Manager, Million Air Calgary.

The FBO facilities consist of a stunning 7,500 square-foot FBO building and two 40,000 square-foot hangars capable of accommodating virtually any aircraft. Amenities are first-class and include a hospitality bar, theatre room, snooze rooms, flight planning, luxury crew cars, concierge services, and more. Fuel is supplied by Avfuel and is handled and dispensed by a highly-trained line team, and maintenance is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Often referred to as “the heart of the New West”, Calgary is currently the fastest-growing city in North America. Major players in the oil and gas industry have established Canadian headquarters within the city. Calgary is perhaps best-known for “the biggest outdoor show on earth” – the annual Calgary Stampede – a ten-day celebration that pays homage to western heritage and values and includes rodeo events, livestock and agriculture competitions, live music, family activities, and more.

Calgary’s diverse array of industry and events draws an international crowd to the city, which Million Air Calgary embraces: the customer service team can meet customer requests in a variety of languages including Spanish, French, and Cantonese. On-site Canadian Customs and Immigration services are available.

“Million Air Calgary’s attention to detail and commitment to creating a personalized, pleasant experience for guests sets this FBO apart,” said Ammerman. “Million Air Calgary is an exceptional addition to the Avfuel Network.”
