28 April 2023 – Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Business Aviation Centre (HKBAC) is proud to announce that it has been named the “Best Asian FBO” in the 2023 Professional Pilot Magazine PRASE Survey for the 16th consecutive year (2008-2023), breaking all records of the Survey.
What is even more encouraging is that HKBAC has attained an unprecedented full score this year and ranked the highest among regions all over the world, underlining the superb standards exhibited over the full chain of professional, seamless services essential to both safety and style.
Regarded as the industry’s aviation ground service gold standard, the annual Professional Pilot Magazine PRASE Survey distinguishes the world’s best FBOs against demanding criteria. Its recognition is the best-in-class testimony to HKBAC’s commitment to providing exceptional ground services for business aviation.
Madonna W. Y. FUNG, General Manager of HKBAC said, “We are elated to keep on the winning track and break records! The 2023 Professional Pilot Magazine “Best Asian FBO” award – the 16th in a row for HKBAC, with a full score – is a fabulous gift not only to our team marking HKBAC’s 25th Anniversary but also a powerful recognition of the exceptional aviation standards and services the HKSAR is known for.
Coming shortly after we closed the depressing pandemic chapter and just when Hong Kong reopened its border to welcome back friends and business travelers, the award, once again, reminds us to always stand vigilant and greet visitors with our legendary services as one of Hong Kong’s Ambassadors.
With HKBAC’s new expansion progressing as planned in tandem with the Hong Kong International Airport’s three-runway system debut, I have no doubt Hong Kong and HKBAC will continue to meet and overcome new challenges to impress the world as an international aviation hub.”
