Air BP has signed an agreement that will see it supply JetA1 to Avalon Airport in Melbourne, as well as provide technical services.
Air BP and Avalon Airport, which served around 90,000 passengers in 2023, have a shared goal of attracting new domestic, international, and freight airlines that can provide Geelong and regional Victoria with greater connectivity to cities around Australia and the world.
Haley Mahoney, Vice President of Air BP for Asia-Pacific, said they were delighted that Avalon Airport is now part of the Air BP family.
“This region is strategically important for Air BP and our focus is on building enduring relationships with customers and creating value through leveraging our global expertise and leading end-to-end supply capability.”
Ari Suss, CEO of Avalon Airport, said the goodwill and trust that comes from this partnership is invaluable and they look forward to building on it.
“We are thrilled to have bp joining us at Avalon Airport as we continue to expand, building on the bp 50-plus-year partnership with the Linfox Group.”
The addition of Avalon Airport to Air BP’s network builds on the company’s strong presence in Victoria, supplying fuel at key sites including Melbourne Tullamarine Airport (MEL) and Essendon Fields Airport (EF).
