FBO stands for Fixed Base Operator. FBOs typically provide fuel and services for charter operators, including passenger and pilot lounges, and overall ground support. They also control access to the individual arriving and departing aircraft. Very often the point of departure will be at an FBO that is different from the operating base of the charter operator providing the service.
