Blackpool Airport Operations Ltd (BAOL) is an important hub for aviation and employment for the Fylde Coast, providing a gateway to North West business and leisure destinations, with 40,000 movements last year.
Based and visiting customers include offshore gas support operations, corporate aircraft operations and handling facilities, helicopter maintenance repair and overhaul, charter flights, fixed wing and rotary flight training, military aircraft, medevac operations, and the Spitfire Visitor Centre. We also host the Blackpool Air Show each year.
It’s an exciting time to be part of BAOL as the airport goes through some areas of significant, transformational change. Planning applications have been submitted for development of ‘Airport East’ to incorporate new GA (general aviation) and MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul) hangars, new ATC (air traffic control) and RFFS (rescue and fire fighting services) facilities as well as a new fuel farm.
Further development is planned around new corporate aircraft hangars and our Fixed Base Operator facility once the physical development of Airport East has commenced. These developments will support our Ten Year Plan targeting expansion of the corporate aircraft operations, bringing MRO companies and aviation support organisations to the airport, and the likely return of regional domestic scheduled passenger services.
Our staff are passionate about Blackpool Airport. We value every person that works for us and reward them for their commitment by providing great opportunities for development, and opportunities to make a real difference to our customers.
We’d love for you to join us.
