Briefing

What we plan around at BHB.

Local constraints we build into every delivery window — curfew, customs, slots, transit, and ramp access.

01

Seasonal hours are the constraint.

The FBO runs shorter off-season hours — a winter delivery window is genuinely narrower than a July one. We confirm current hours and stage accordingly.

02

Summer-peak demand.

Acadia and Bar Harbor draw heavy summer VIP and second-home traffic; ramp gets busy. Confirm the loading leg.

03

Coastal Maine weather.

Fog and weather move schedules; hot items pack to hold.

04

No US Customs.

International clears at Bangor (BGR, ~1h) first.

05

After-hours by arrangement.

Early or late ops need prior coordination with Modern Aviation.
