PHI Aviation has opened a new airbase in Houma, Louisiana, completing a multi-year initiative to expand and modernize the company’s key Gulf hub. The company held a ribbon-cutting and grand opening event this week to mark the occasion.

The multimillion-dollar facility includes a 26,000-sq-ft passenger terminal designed to accommodate up to 500 passengers, a parking lot with space for more than 4,000 vehicles, and a 2,250-foot lighted runway. A 40,000-sq-ft hangar was also constructed to support PHI’s rotorcraft operations in the region.
