Jet Aviation has expanded its continual supplies of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in Europe to include its Basel, Switzerland facility at EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg (LFSB). This builds on the General Dynamics subsidiary’s experience as the first to bring SAF to Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 2020. Jet Aviation also provided the renewable fuel in Geneva for EBACE starting in 2022.

“We are delighted to be able to offer SAF onsite again during the [WEF] in Davos,” said João Martins, Jet Aviation’s v-p of regional FBO operations for Europe and general manager of its Zurich location. “We are incredibly proud to be able to provide this choice at all our sites in Switzerland, either via temporary onsite supplies for key events in Zurich and Geneva or with a permanent supply at our headquarters in Basel.”
