About Avflight Lansing
Avflight Lansing is the sole FBO at Capital Region International Airport, serving Michigan's state capital with 24-hour, full-service operations year round. The facility sits on the east side of the field with direct ramp access and generous hangar capacity for transient aircraft of all sizes.
As a charter passenger, you will find a comfortable passenger lounge with complimentary refreshments and Wi-Fi, along with a separate flight planning room equipped with satellite weather displays. The terminal includes a business center for anyone needing to work between flights, and a concierge desk that handles hotel reservations, restaurant recommendations, and ground transportation. On-site rental cars from major agencies are available for pickup right at the FBO, and cab and limousine services can be arranged on short notice.
One of the standout features during Michigan's harsh winters is the preheated hangar space. Your aircraft stays warm and ready for departure, which means minimal delays on cold mornings. De-icing services are available on the ramp when conditions require it.
Lansing itself sits roughly 90 minutes from Detroit and an hour from Grand Rapids, making it a convenient midpoint for business travelers covering central Michigan. Michigan State University is about 10 minutes from the airport, and the state capitol complex is a short drive south. The airport sees steady corporate traffic from the auto industry, state government, and university-related travel.
Avflight operates as an Avfuel branded dealer, so contract fuel customers can earn AVTRIP points on purchases. Freight, cargo, and baggage handling services round out the operation for passengers with oversized luggage or equipment.
