We were working hard towards opening on time for the 1st June and then we started to receive requests for handling dates in late May so we decided work around the clock to open the doors early to accommodate the high level of demand that we have received”.

Mike Chamberlain, Ground Operations Director at FlairJet added “We are delighted to be the first aircraft handled by Weston Aviation at Humberside. This extends a long standing relationship between FlairJet and its personnel and Weston Aviation and we wish them every success with their new venture”.

The business secured in the first week of operating from a brand new dedicated fixed based operation, clearly demonstrates the strength of their reputation and the need for a business aviation facility in the region. We would like to take this opportunity to wish them every success for the future.”
