Orlando, FL (October 21, 2014) – At the National Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA 2014), World Fuel Services announced that Denver jetCenter, located at Centennial Airport (KAPA) in Englewood, CO, has joined the growing Air Elite® Network. Denver jetCenter has recently become an Ascent fuel branded member of the World Fuel Services Network and is now an Air Elite Diamond Service designated FBO.

Part of the jetCenters of Colorado chain (www.jetcenters.com), which was voted a 2014 Best Small FBO Chain by Professional Pilot Magazine, Denver jetCenter has been serving business and general aviation clientele with stellar service and amenities since 1979. Denver jetCenter is consistently recognized by industry publications and the flying public as one of the nation’s best FBOs. In 2014, Aviation International News recognized the FBO as one of the top FBOs in the Rocky Mountains region. Denver jetCenter also was ranked in the top 15 best US FBOs in the 2014 Professional Pilot Magazine’s annual PRASE Survey.

Furthermore, Denver jetCenter counts with on site U.S. customs services, heated transient hangars and the largest fleet of fuel trucks and Deicers (Type I & IV) at the Centennial Airport.
