Scottsdale Airport managed 490 corporate jet operations,\nmostly departures, in less than 24 hours during Super Bowl weekend. This\nremarkable feat was a game-winning action for the airport. While the airport is\nused to handling a higher volume of operations during its special events\nseason, the influx of jet departures in such a short period was an incredible\nchallenge for the team, but they rose to the challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to have facilitated a seamless Super Bowl\nexperience for all our corporate jet operations,\u201d says Aviation Director Gary\nP. Mascaro. \u201cIt was an exciting experience for aviation and corporate jet\naficionados to see all these private jets utilizing Scottsdale Airport. All\noperations came together seamlessly and efficiently — and without any delays!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scottsdale Airport\u2019s ramps were lined with 911 aircraft\nparked overnight between Thursday through Monday. Of that figure, 780 were\ntransient or visiting corporate jets which lined the airport ramps from end to\nend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am so proud of the entire team. I wholeheartedly\nappreciate the hard work from aviation staff, as well as the FAA Air Traffic\nand the fixed-base operators, which provide fuel and ground handling services\nfor the aircraft, for their amazing efforts in making sure we were prepared and\nsuccessful for this incredibly busy time,\u201d said Aviation Director Gary P.\nMascaro. \u201cWith everyone\u2019s support and dedication, we pulled off a game-winning\nperformance!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The airport\u2019s infrastructure was prepped and ready too. This\nwas due to the FAA Airports Division Office which supported the airport in\nsecuring approximately $4.8 million in grant funding to make vital capacity\nupgrades and improvements that allowed us to handle the volume of aircraft in\nsuch an efficient manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three fixed-base operators, Atlantic Aviation, Signature\nFlight Support and Jet Aviation, worked tirelessly to strategically park and\nposition aircraft, and to manage the reservations for their facility. Their\nwork contributed to ensuring aircraft were positioned and ready to go for\nsmooth departures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scottsdale Airport is proud to be considered a top choice for corporate jet operations in the valley. This was a true victory, and the team is looking forward to continuing to provide outstanding service and efficiently to all those who utilize the airport!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
