A new association brought a ray of sunshine into EBACE this week. The Caribbean FBO Alliance (CFBOA, Stand 957) chose Geneva as its launch venue as it wishes to attract more European private aviation business to the region. Interim president Deborah Aharon explained, “The key difference between us and existing chains is that we are not a chain; we are an alliance of nine unique companies. We are all strong players who have been in the industry for a long time.” 

The nine members are Lloyd’s Aviation, Anguilla; FBO2000, Antigua; Odyssey Aviation, the Bahamas; IslandAir, Grand Cayman; MN Aviation, Puerto Rico; Bohike International Airways, St. Croix; Arindell Aviation, St. Maarten; St. Thomas Jet Center, St. Thomas; and Provo Air Center in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
