New FBO Manager welcomed by ExecuJet Europe at Cambridge Airport

ExecuJet Cambridge, the company’s first full-service UK FBO, has appointed Karen Hein-Jones to the position of FBO Manager, effective January 2^nd. Karen joins from another FBO company at Stansted Airport where she held the position of Operations Controller for five years. Karen had started her career in aviation as cabin crew with Monarch Airlines in 1986. In her new role, Karen will report to Nicole Gut, Director European FBOs working alongside a strong team committed to maintaining ExecuJet’s prestigious world class business aviation FBO brand.

“I feel very privileged and excited to be part of the highly respected ExecuJet team and look forward to using my knowledge and experience to play a key role in developing business aviation at Cambridge,” Karen commented.

“We are delighted to welcome Karen to the team at our new state-of-the-art FBO at Cambridge,” said Nicole Gut. “We are looking forward to developing business aviation at our first full-service FBO in the UK to make it an internationally renowned, dedicated business and VIP centre of choice. Having someone with Karen’s experience and knowledge will help us tremendously in realising our plans, especially as London will host the Olympics this year and we anticipate an extremely busy summer at Cambridge.”

The Cambridge facility will shortly implement FBO One as their main business system which is currently used throughout many of the worldwide ExecuJet FBOs including Zurich, Dubai and Paris (in partnership with Advanced Air Support).

Cambridge Airport is one of just five regional airports in the UK capable of accepting business and passenger services with a 24/7 slot allocation during the 2012 Olympics period. ExecuJet will be able to support Cambridge Airport’s ambitious Olympic traffic plans, by bringing its experience of the South African World Cup and – with its extended FBO network - will be able to help with the additional temporary roles which the Airport will need to maintain levels of service during the extended traffic and opening hours of the 2012 London Summer Olympics. ExecuJet Cambridge is already taking bookings for the Olympic period.
