New name for Sugar Land FBO

By Janice Wood · October 21, 2010 ·

Sugar Land Regional Airport (SGR) in Texas has rebranded its FBO as Global Select.

“Launching a new name will allow us to market the FBO independently from the city’s airport,” said Phillip Savko, Director of Aviation for Sugar Land Regional Airport. “Typically, FBOs that are run by municipalities have an unfavorable reputation. Global Select’s new facility and top-notch amenities set it apart. This new campaign will help us spread awareness throughout the industry.”

Located within a 20,000-square-foot “ranch style” terminal building, the FBO offers state-of-the-art amenities and conveniences to its patrons, he said.

Under its new name, Global Select will continue to offer services such as: aircraft ground services; concierge-style customer service; onsite U.S. customs services; gourmet catering; NATA Safety 1st certified line service crew; 24-hour service available; Quick Turn Service Available; GPU and LAV Service; Shell-branded fuels; and complimentary coffee, newspapers and ice. With over half a million square feet of apron for aircraft parking, Global Select is able to provide safe ramp operations for even the largest business aircraft.

The Global Select facility also features conference rooms available for complimentary use by fly-in customers; a private executive lounge; crew cars; two onsite rental car agencies; and a Professional Crew Suite, complete with a flight planning office, media room with free videos; exercise room, quiet/snooze rooms, kitchen and shower facilities, WSI Pilot brief, Wi-Fi and a private office.
