New Hangars, Same Outstanding Service

Sheltair, one of the leading aviation FBO and real estate development service companies along America’s eastern seaboard, is currently offering priority reservations for hundreds of thousands of square feet of new hangar space now under construction at Sheltair locations at Orlando, Savannah, Fort Lauderdale, Long Island, NY and Tampa airports.

“We are changing the traditional expectation of an `Early Bird Special’,” wryly observed Todd Anderson, Sheltair Senior Vice President for Real Estate and Development. “In this instance, it is about ensuring that our aviation existing clients and new customers are offered priority reservations to new state-of-the-art facilities that will be coming on line within months. This reflects a multimillion-dollar investment by Sheltair that anticipates the needs of a vibrant and dynamic general aviation market.”
 
Those flying into Orlando can actually catch a glimpse of the construction underway adjacent to Sheltair’s main FBO terminal as they prepare to land.
 
The “Early Bird” is part of a larger Sheltair outreach program to the nation’s aviation community with the reminder:  “Where you land is as important to your business as how you fly.”
 
The campaign underscores Sheltair’s construction of new hangars and support facilities at airports that include not only Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa, but also Savannah, and New York’s Republic, and Westhampton airports. Sheltair’s message remains direct and simple:  Those with aircraft operational/management responsibilities have the opportunity to secure priority positions now before Sheltair officially opens its hangar doors.

 
“We have said all along that while the industry forecast may call for new aircraft production to continue, no one is creating new airport property and the new large sized hangar supply is in demand,” continued Anderson. “Sheltair has secured the approvals to expand and build on that most precious of real estate, airport property. That allows us to offer preferred customers new facilities that meet their needs today and far into the future. We are signing up potential tenants by offering priority rights now.”
 
The company will be offering its portfolio of new facilities during NBAA's upcoming Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE) show in Orlando (Nov. 1-3).
 
“A strong general aviation industry is critical to the continued success of Central Florida’s economic growth,” stated Phil Brown, Executive Director of the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority. “Sheltair’s long term commitment to Orlando Executive Airport along with our $3 billion investment into Orlando International Airport builds a strong foundation for Central Florida’s aviation future.”
 
Sheltair is also reminding the market that its New York properties enjoy the advantage of being free of sales and user taxes following the actions of the New York state legislature and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who has sought to make the Empire State more competitive in serving the general aviation community.
