London Oxford Airport Entices First Time North American Users

London Oxford Airport (EGTK) is participating at the NBAA’s Schedulers and Dispatchers event in San Antonio, TX this week (January 29th to February 1st) and is highlighting a first time user offer to North American-originating pilots and corporate flight departments. New arrivals from the US and Canada can claim 25% off their landing fees from now until April 1st, quoting S&D Offer 2019 when placing a handling request.

James Dillon-Godfray, Head of Business Development, cites that RAF Northolt is set to close to all fixed wing aircraft movements between April and October this year (for runway improvements). Luton and London Stansted are restrictive on night flights again this summer, a situation expected to continue, plus RAF Brize Norton (popular with Heads of State visitors) is temporarily closed to civil traffic during the Spring. Opening hours can extend to midnight (on a 24-hour request) while its standard opening hours were recently extended from 06.30hrs to 23:00 hours, seven days a week.

The airport is further exploring the ability to accept limited movements after midnight and before 06:00 hrs - in part to satisfy potential 24 hour needs of regional manufacturers who have a critical need for the most expeditious options for Just-in-Time logistics. This has come into sharp focus now, especially with the possibility of Brexit and consequences of any disruption to normal supply channels.

London Oxford Airport’s award-winning OxfordJet FBO is IS-BAH Stage 2 accredited. It is also approved for Pet imports, having accepted thousands of cats and dogs to date.
