Thunder Bay Flight Refuelling

Thunder Bay Flight Refuelling has operated at Thunder Bay International Airport for nearly 40 years, making it one of the longest-established FBOs in northwestern Ontario. The facility includes a private air terminal, a private ramp, a modern FBO building, and an attached hangar for aircraft storage. The operation focuses on providing big-city amenities with a small-town service approach. The FBO handles quick-turn fuel stops for large jets and can hangar turboprops overnight, making it a practical stop for aircraft transiting between eastern and western Canada or heading to remote northern communities. Thunder Bay International has two runways (the primary is 7,500 feet) and full instrument approaches, capable of handling all business jet categories. For charter passengers, Thunder Bay is the gateway to northwestern Ontario's wilderness, Lakehead region communities, and the nearby Sleeping Giant Provincial Park. The airport is about 15 minutes from downtown Thunder Bay. The private terminal provides a comfortable waiting area with refreshments while aircraft are fueled and serviced. Thunder Bay Flight Refuelling operates as a World Fuel Services affiliate. The FBO is well suited for fuel-stop passengers who want a fast turnaround, as well as travelers whose final destination is Thunder Bay or surrounding communities. Ground transport including rental cars is available at the airport. The facility's longevity and local expertise mean the staff are familiar with the specific challenges of operating in this northern climate, including winter weather management and de-icing procedures.
