Florida's Miami Executive Airport (KTMB) will unveil a new FBO terminal with next month's opening of the International Flight Center (IFC) facility, part of the redevelopment of the company’s main leasehold. IFC—one of four service providers on the field—occupies 15-plus acres at KTMB, including more than 12 acres of ramp.
Located on the southwest side of the airport adjacent to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection office, the 10,500-sq-ft building quadruples in size the terminal the company had used since 1986. The older terminal and accompanying 12,400-sq-ft hangar were demolished in the third quarter.
The soon-to-be-completed two-story terminal features a passenger lounge, pilot lounge with full bed/bathroom snooze rooms, refreshment bar, business center, 10-seat A/V-equipped conference room, upstairs observation deck, and a café.
Earlier this year, the Avfuel-branded FBO debuted a new 84,000-sq-ft hangar complex, equipped with foam-free fire suppression and capable of accommodating the latest ultra-long-range business jets. That brought the complex to more than 120,000 sq ft of aircraft shelter.
“We couldn’t be more excited to start a new year in a new, luxury facility,” said IFC president Wilfredo Valle. “Every detail of this development has been meticulously planned for the ultimate private flying experience—for pilots and passengers alike. Now, our accommodations will match the industry-leading care our customers have come to know and trust out of IFC.”
