Welcome to FBO Asia.Resource.


Capt's Blog Stardate 17032011:

Hello and welcome to FBO.Asia.Resource. The objective of this blog is to share experiences and impart some of the knowledge gained so others may have a better picture of what to expect when they operate into Asia. Landing at an unfamiliar foreign airport and trying to get your pax safely through CIQ and turn around your aircraft can be overwhelming if you don't know who your handlers are or what services they can offer. You may try to call your flight coordinator if you get your mobile to work, but sitting in a cubicle in Houston half a day apart , they cannot help you much either. So here is where I will share some of our experiences. At the moment I am operating within SE Asia and China. hopefully I will be flying into more exciting cities in other parts of Asia. I have heard stories about landing and handling in India so that would be a good experience to write about.

I will attempt to get a few contributors who flies to different destinations or uses a different handler so the wealth of experience and knowledge will be even greater. At the end of the day, your pax are happy, you feel safe and secure that your aircraft is ready and we can all head for the bar and get our well deserve drinks.

VTBD

VTBD Don Muang Airport DMK, Bangkok is the place to go for GA and private jets. It operates 24H, has a long runway with a superb FBO and handling. It is not so busy and has lots of parking stands. Depending on your parking stand, a minivan will ferry pax and crew to the FBO. Staff are courteous even at 4 am and attends to your every need. Thai hospitality are really welcoming after a long and tiring flight.  CIQ clearance is fast and excellent hotels can be found within 30 mins. Our handlers was HS Aviation and they were very efficient and alternately the FBO is Mjets who also attended to our passengers.
