Commercial Facilities for FBOs
Syracuse Hancock International Airport provides commercial facilities for fixed base operators (FBOs) and activities that involve the sale of general aviation products and services to the public. It also provides for non-commercial facilities limited to the basing and servicing of private aircraft maintained by individuals or organizations.
FBOs provide support services such as deicing, fueling, and cargo handling for most of the major airlines flying into Syracuse, as well as flight instruction, charter, and cargo services, and aircraft management services to private clients.
