Macquarie Wins HPN Privatization Bid
While Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation was selected in the billion dollar public-private deal, its outcome is still far from certain.
While an operator was selected in the billion-dollar deal to privatize New York City-area corporate aviation hub Westchester County Airport, it still requires the approval of a lame-duck board of legislators, with some urging a delay on the vote, until the new board can review the terms.

Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation, the parent company of FBO chain Atlantic Aviation, was chosen to operate New York-area business aviation hub Westchester County Airport in an announcement yesterday by recently defeated county executive Rob Astorino (R). In April, the county issued an RFP for the 40-year contract, after Astorino’s failed attempt last year to award the contract without contest to Oaktree Capital Management, which runs Puerto Rico’s San Juan Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport.
