The Meridian Companies at Teterboro Airport come to Orlando epitomizing the old saw that “when times get tough the tough get going.” The Meridian NBAA booth (No. 1890) showcases the four facets of the New Jersey airport business: Meridian Teterboro-FBO Services; Meridian Jet Center, an FAA Part 145 repair station and detailing service; Meridian Air Charter and Meridian Aircraft Management.
Andrew Ladouceur, Meridian Air Charter director of charter sales, told NBAA Convention News that Meridian is holding its own during the recession. “We were formerly a Million Air FBO,” he said. “When we decided to go independent three years ago, at the end of our agreement, we took on the responsibility for marketing of the company outside the support of the Million Air franchise. We’ve been very happy as an independent. We’ve got to work twice as hard to get the trips, but we’ve been able to keep the aircraft moving and keep everybody gainfully employed.
