Louisiana FBO Expands with Rival Purchase
BTR Jet at Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport will acquire Executive Aviation this summer, and embark on a major construction project.

Baton Rouge Jet Center (BTR Jet), one of three service providers at Louisiana’s Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport, will expand its operation with the purchase of competitor Executive Aviation. Following the merger later this summer, BTR Jet, which opened in 2015, will begin construction on a new 5,000-sq-ft FBO operations facility and three hangars totaling 45,000 sq ft of aircraft storage. That project is expected to be completed in the first half of next year.
