Infinity Aviation Group, a fledgling FBO chain, has expanded its footprint to South Florida with the acquisition of Corporate Air, one of three service providers at Vero Beach Regional Airport (KVRB).&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2025-06-09/new-hampshire-airport-sees-birth-new-fbo-chain">Launched</a> last year, Charleston, South Carolina-based Infinity also operates an FBO at Boire Field Airport (KASH) in Nashua, New Hampshire.
Situated adjacent to the airport’s primary 7,300-foot runway, the facility has a 5,000-sq-ft terminal with a passenger lounge, crew lounge with private bathroom/shower and snooze room, eat-in kitchen, and a 12-seat conference room. Last year, the FBO added a $3 million 3,800-sq-ft U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility, giving KVRB the ability to handle international arrivals.
The complex, which has more than eight acres of ramp, also offers eight hangars totaling 106,500 sq ft and has the ability to accommodate up to ultra-long-range business jets.
“Vero Beach offers outstanding infrastructure with extensive modern hangar space capable of accommodating heavy jets, and additional hangar capacity is on the way,” said Infinity CEO Steven Levesque. “We are confident our Vero Beach FBO will quickly become South Florida’s preferred destination for private jet travelers.”

New developments at FBOs including regulations and noise issues; legal disputes; openings, acquisitions and mergers.
