Provo Air Center was founded in 2001 by Lyndon R. Gardiner, a visionary in Caribbean aviation and the chairman of InterIsland Aviation Services Group. His goal was to establish the first fixed-base operation (FBO) in the Turks & Caicos Islands, providing world-class services for private aviation.

Under the leadership of CEO Deborah Aharon, the FBO has grown into one of the busiest in the Caribbean, setting industry standards worldwide and earning multiple awards. The facility’s commitment to best-in-class service, innovation, commitment to privacy, and efficiency has earned the Provo Air Center the title of Best FBO in the Caribbean by Aviation International News (AIN) seven times over.

Today, Provo Air Center remains the only independent FBO in the Turks & Caicos Islands serving both Providenciales and South Caicos. Those who choose Provo Air Center become lifelong guests and are welcomed ‘home’ by the Provo Air Center family with each and every arrival.

As an independent FBO, Provo Air Center remains steadfast to it’s customer-focused mission, ensuring that all guest requests are met and expectations exceeded without hesitation.
