FBO Is Company's First Location In Arizona
Officials with Million Air recently celebrated the grand opening
of the company's first executive airplane terminal in Arizona.
Million Air Tucson is located in the Campbell/Valencia General
Aviation Aeroplex at the Tucson International Airport (TUS).
"As our first terminal in Arizona, Million Air Tucson offers an
option for travelers to and from the region who prefer to avoid the
congestion of commercial air travel, as well as an ideal refueling
location for cross-country trips," said Roger Woolsey, president
and chief executive officer of Million Air.
Million Air Tucson offers more than 54,000 square feet of
combined terminal, office and hangar space, including 20,000 square
feet of Class A office space for lease. This two-story facility
will feature amenities such as a premier security/surveillance
system with electronic access, state-of- the-art theater room,
spacious conference and break rooms, and covered
parking.
Seaver Franks Architects conceptualized the design of the
facility which was completed in January and Lang Wyatt handled
construction of the nearly $5-million project.
Million Air marked the opening with a community event on January
12. Woolsey welcomed guests including Tucson Mayor Bob Walkup; Dick
Gruenzel, vice president of administration and finance for the
Tucson Airport Authority; Jim Garcia, senior director of
administration for the Tucson Airport Authority, Jack Camper,
president and chief executive officer of the Tucson Metropolitan
Chamber of Commerce and Hertz City Manager Robert Breeding.
