Big Island Jet Center, a new FBO at Hawaii’s Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport (PHKO), is set to make its debut next month as the gateway’s third service provider.

Located at the south end of the airport, the company will begin operations on December 14 from a temporary facility on a nine-acre ramp capable of handling aircraft up to an Airbus A319. It will include indoor and outdoor passenger lobbies and a 50,000-gallon Avfuel-supplied jet fuel farm. The facility’s line staff is NATA Safety 1st-trained, and its customer service staff has completed the Ritz-Carlton training program.
