EBAN FBO survey 2009

In the spirit of wild speculation long before the facts become clear , does anyone have any predictions for which FBOs will be the winners and losers in this year's EBAN survey...? Think it's due out at the start of February.

There's only one winner for me- TAG @ Farnborough. OK the service may be a little inconsistant on busy days but the facilities are stunning

It's not you are correct, they can have the most fantastic facility, but if your staff are ****e, then their service provision is going to be ****e. I know I've been buying FBO/Handler services for over 30 years globally, where there were none, I got folks to set them up, now you've got some of the best service provision in certain parts of the world that were lacking previously.

Those that knock them, should try and work their environment for a few days

Results are below some very suprising ones (except the winner of course).

It would be interesting to have the total number of voters,


A fbo performance is not down to the tits of the CSR, If one visited the fbo on one of their bad day, the vote can be catastrophic and vice versa.

I personnaly do not think that TAG in FRN is the top one, but this is only based on my experience with them. TAG in GVA is far better in terms of performance ( IMHO).

What is really interesting is the fact that, if everyone who answered did it according to the instructions ie Fbo visited last year only, some countries are heavily represented other not at all.

This is the perfect example where the main city pairs are located, and this is reflecting our patterns...

no moscow though...LoL

The other side

I totalaly agree with you Mallorcair have always and will be the best Miguel and his team are the best

We shall have to have a moral boosting visit to LEPA to congratulate Miguel and his team personally



Simply Guys if your are going to LEPA use Mallorcair you wont be dissapointed

Miguel is still the top jockey and keeps his reins very tight on his FBO



Miguel if you read this Very well done you are the Best in FBO s as the survey has proven once again




Salute

Personally I'm just delighted Siggys Luton beat H'rods Luton. Signature = crummy building great people, H'rods = great building.....

Olbia get vote because they are efficient and......gorgeous (errr....girls that is)

TAG Farnboro - just bloody good. HOWEVER! next year I must remember to vote for the hero in Leipzig who is supreme (Carsten)

How does this survey actually work? I have seen other FBO Survey results and they are mainly broken down, which gives FBO's the opportunity to see where they maybe failing/improving........ from all that I can see doesn't give you any information whatsoever, so to a degree its completely pointless!

Check out the criteria printed in EBAN, it was printed back last spring I think. Email them to find out.

Having been personally chased around the FBO at LEPA by paco with a voting form and a pen, I always take these polls with a pinch of salt. No doubt though mallorcair are very very good. Glad AVB at EGJJ got a shout very very good there as well
