ABOUT BOCA RATON AIRPORT (BCT)
Full-service Fixed Base Operators (FBOs)
Consistent, exceptional service
Aircraft Storage
Clean, comfortable, well-furnished facilities
From gourmet-catering to luxury ground transportation
Ground handling
Making air travel as easy as possible, two full-service Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) are located at the Airport. Each FBO offers a range of amenities, such as fueling, ground handling, aircraft storage, conference rooms, catering, and limousine service.
In 2018, the Airport opened an onsite Customs and Border Protection facility, enabling international flights to fly directly into the Boca Raton Airport instead of first stopping at another airport to go through customs. By eliminating this stop before arrival, the number of low altitude flights will be greatly decreased, which enhances safety for pilots, passengers, and individuals on the ground in and around the Airport.
