Flanders International Airport (FIA) FBO Implements Innovative Technology

May 18, 2021

Flanders International Airport is strategically located less than an hour drive east of the City of Brussels, the Belgium capital. Brussels is also the de facto capital of the European Union.

FIA is an alternative to Brussels National Airport and is playing an increasing part in offering business and general aviation operators flexible, cost-effective, ground handling and parking options.

Technology is a major factor in the FIA vision for the future and after extensive research they chose X1-FBO to meet their FBO needs, becoming the “First in Europe” to implement this next generation of FBO software.

FIA General Manager Alexander Kerkhof explained, “X-1FBO is an extension of our operational activities, it’s intuitive to use and stable. FBOs need to focus on every detail of every client, keeping the big picture continually updated. X-1FBO ensures all our staff are always in the information loop.”

Jim Wiley, CEO and co-founder of X1-FBO added, “I am delighted to welcome FIA FBO as our first client in Europe. Our technology fits very well with their vision of always striving to offer their clients the ultimate service. X-1FBO will help FIA continue to grow their business based on powerful, intuitive software designed to improve safety, maximize profits and enhance customer focus."
