The Bohlke Team

Bohlke International Aviation has been named the Best Caribbean Fixed-Base Operator (FBO), according to the 2024 PRASE (Preferences Regarding Aviation Services and Equipment) Survey results released by Professional Pilot magazine.

The survey invited executives, aviation managers, chief pilots, CEOs, and other aviation professionals to rate FBOs on a scale from 1 (poor) to 10 (excellent) across six categories: Line Team, Customer Service Representatives (CSRs), Facility, Amenities, Promptness & Efficiency, and Value for Price. Bohlke International Aviation received an impressive overall score of 9.65.

William Bohlke, president of Bohlke International Aviation, expressed immense pride in his team for achieving the top ranking. “We work so hard to do the right thing for our valued customers, so it’s gratifying to know that our customers recognize our team’s efforts,” said Bohlke. “This is a victory not only for our business, but for the USVI! To be the best in a region so heavily focused on tourism and service says a lot about our team’s work ethic and dedication.”

This recognition comes just six months after Bohlke International Aviation was featured on the cover of Professional Pilot magazine. The cover story highlighted Bohlke’s significant growth over its 65-year history in the Caribbean, including the expansion of charter, maintenance, and FBO services in Puerto Rico.

Bohlke concluded, “Going forward, our promise to the USVI is to continue to strive to make the territory a hub for aviation and to share our success with our local community.”

Since 1959, Bohlke International Aviation has been a leader in aviation services across the Caribbean. As a full-service, independent FBO, Bohlke is renowned for its extensive charter jet fleet and exceptional service. The company caters to the U.S. military, along with corporate and private aviation clients, delivering the unique blend of Caribbean hospitality and top-tier service. Additionally, Bohlke operates an air charter base in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and maintains a comprehensive maintenance facility in Ceiba, Puerto Rico.
