Avfuel Corporation announced that Key Air has joined the Avfuel-branded network of FBO dealers in offering fuel and related services to the general and business aviation industry. Key Air has three locations that are now Avfuel-branded dealers: Key Air South Florida (FPR) of Fort Pierce, Florida; Key Air Twin Cities (ANE) of Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota; and Key Air NY Metro (OXC) of Oxford, Connecticut. With proximity to major U.S. cities like New York, Boston, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Palm Beach and Los Angeles, Key Air is known for its ability to deliver a more efficient and streamlined alternative to the often congested airports in each of these locations. From now through the end of March of 2010, these Key Air locations are offering customers triple AVTRIP points on all fuel purchases.ABOUT KEY AIR

Key Air NY Metro (OXC) is located in Connecticut and provides aircraft owners with a secure, private country-club like environment in which to base their aircraft, as well as convenient access to New York City without the airspace and ground congestion of metropolitan area airports.“We have the ability to offer our customers a private, secure facility with all of the features and amenities of a major airport, including the second largest runway in Connecticut after Bradley International Airport," said David Blackburn, SVP Nationwide FBO Operations. "An added bonus is that our clients are always first for take-off and never have to wait as they do at other area airports.”
With an air traffic control tower, high intensity runway lights, a new taxiway, precision approach path indicator and recent improvements to overrun safety areas, OXC allows owner/operators to feel secure flying into and out of this airport. The newly renovated FBO terminal offers comfortable passenger seating, areas suitable for dining and working and a private pilot lounge. Courtesy cars are available to pilots, as are onsite rental cars, catering and free parking. Fast turnarounds and overnight hangar space are available, making this a great alternative to congested New York metropolitan area airports.
Key Air South Florida (FPR) is close to world-class beaches and marinas and offers all the amenities pilots and passengers expect in a full-service FBO. This location boasts U.S. Customs on the airfield, 90,000 square feet of hangar space, a large illuminated ramp and fueling directly on the US Customs ramp.“We offer the lowest price for fuel on the airfield and are a designated port of entry for international travelers, with U.S. Customs where we can provide an array of services, including fuel that is conveniently located right on the ramp,” said General Manager Eddie Cabrera.
Key Air Twin Cities (ANE) occupies a luxurious new terminal equipped with a private passenger lounge, phone rooms, Wi-Fi, fireplace and a 60-inch plasma television. Amenities including a large conference room and private pilot lounge with reclining couches, a snooze room, shower, flight planning and WSI Pilot Brief access, make this an FBO of choice pre- or post- flight. Full ground services are available, including a 65,000-square-foot heated hangar and 300,000 square feet of clear ramp space. Key Air Twin Cities charges no airport landing, handling or facility fees with a minimum fuel purchase.
