Best FBO's to use in LFPB
Greetings all,
We have a trip pending to LFPB and I would like to get some feedback on the top 3 FBO choices from those who have been there.
A/C type is G550.
Appreciate any advice, thanks

I agree that in LFPB the differences are marginal and the service usually not fantastic but "good enough".
However, I disagree with Jet Jockey A4 insofar as some Euro FBOs do provide some of the best service anywhere in the world. I'm thinking TAG EGLF, Grafair ESSB, Swissport LFMN, Mallorcair LEPA and others. Your average North American FBO may be bigger and fancier than many in Europe but the service is not necessarily always world-class in my experience. However, your average FBO experience in North America is usually at least satisfactory, and usually better, whereas in Europe in can and does vary from dreadful to outstanding.

I too, would like to voice my support for Jetex. Used them extensively over the years and never had a bad experience.
Used the other FBO's with different operators over the years and while the competition is strong, Jetex has still offered consistently great service.
If your arrival is not at a busy time for them they can typically coordinate for you to taxi nose in, right up to the FBO with your pax being less than 15 steps from the aircraft to the FBO entrance.
Enjoy your visit whoever you opt for... Lunch at the air museum restaurant is well worth a visit too

If you are going to order handling with Jetex at LFPB, you should do this via RocketRoute MarketPlace. They have a rewards system so get cashback for ordering. It is only a few extra $$ back but better than nothing.
