About Aerotron FBO

Aerotron FBO operates within the hangar area of Puerto Vallarta International Airport, providing ground handling, fueling, and passenger services for private jet operations into one of Mexico's most popular Pacific coast resort destinations. The facility is operated under the GAP Aerotron name, working with Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico, which manages the airport.

The base of operations includes a 3,000-square-foot hangar and a recently expanded ramp area covering 60,000 square feet, built with modern technology and materials. Jet A fuel trucks service aircraft on the ramp. The terminal area features a VIP room for passengers and separate areas for crew, along with assistance in arranging hotel accommodations and rest rooms.

Aerotron handles landing and takeoff permits, aircraft cleaning, and catering customized to passenger preferences. The team also provides aviation maintenance and repair services, adding a technical capability that goes beyond standard FBO handling. Contact is through Enrique Tron, and the facility operates on Unicom frequency 130.65.

Puerto Vallarta International Airport sits on Banderas Bay, one of the largest natural bays in the Pacific, about 7 kilometers from the city's historic center and its famous malecon waterfront promenade. The resort areas of Nuevo Vallarta, Punta de Mita, and the Four Seasons at the northern end of the bay are 20 to 45 minutes by car. The luxury enclave of Costalegre stretches south along the Jalisco coastline.

For charter passengers, Aerotron provides a functional, locally operated FBO experience at a resort airport that sees heavy commercial traffic. The expanded ramp gives private aircraft adequate space, and the VIP room offers a comfortable buffer from the commercial terminal. Puerto Vallarta's combination of beach culture, dining, sport fishing, and mountain adventures makes it one of Mexico's most complete resort destinations accessible by private jet.

Marina Vallarta and the northern hotel zone are 10 minutes by car. Downtown Puerto Vallarta and the Malecón are about 5 miles south, typically 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic on Highway 200. Nuevo Vallarta, just across the Nayarit state line, is 15 minutes north. Punta Mita, home to several luxury resort and villa enclaves, is roughly 35 miles north and takes 45 to 55 minutes by car. Car service and SUV transfers are available through the handling agents and local operators. Helicopter transfers to Punta Mita or remote coastal properties are possible given the geography, though less commonly arranged than in destinations with dedicated helipad infrastructure.
