J.A. Air Center Joins the Air Elite Network

World Fuel Services (WFS) announces that J.A. Air Center in Sugar Grove, Illinois has joined the Air Elite Network. 

J.A. Air Center is based at Aurora Municipal Airport (KARR), approximately 45 miles west of Chicago’s city center. Located just outside O’Hare International Airport’s airspace, J.A. Air Center offers direct access to the tollway.

J.A. Air Center boasts an 11,000 square foot terminal facility, 100,000 square feet of heated hangar space (capable of housing a G650), and a 20,000 square foot arrival canopy to protect customers from the Chicago elements. Crew amenities include a workout room with showers, snooze rooms, courtesy cars, and a pilot’s lounge including a pool table. Courtesy of their partnership with the exclusive Rich Harvest Farms private golf and country club located nearby, the lobby hosts a rotating display of vintage cars provided by the country club. 

Since opening its doors as an avionics shop in 1965, J.A. Air Center has evolved into one of the largest independent FBOs in the country. A one-stop shop for aviation needs, they offer avionics, maintenance, brokerage, interiors, detailing, parts, flight training, and charter solutions. 

Established in 2011, the Air Elite Network has grown to 79 Diamond Service Locations worldwide. Each FBO member must meet a number of airport, facility, and service quality standards to qualify for membership. Aircraft operators utilizing the Air Elite Network benefit from a consistently high level of service and enhanced FlyBuys™ Rewards when using AVCARD® and World Fuel Contract Fuel.
