Million Air is a privately held aviation company that operates fixed-base operators (FBOs) in North America, the Caribbean, Latin America, Asia, . It is headquartered in the United States in Houston, Texas, and was founded in 1984.
History
Million Air was founded in 1984 by the Mary Kay Cosmetics family as a single-site FBO located at Addison Airport (KADS) in Dallas, Texas. Million Air's goal was to deliver a higher level of service through a luxury FBO to customers in Dallas, consistent to the corporate image within the confines of its corporate jet. In 1984 Million Air Dallas opened in Addison, Texas, as a full-service, first-class business executive lounge for arriving and departing aircraft which was unique at the time.[citation needed]
The company’s original goal was to deliver outstanding service in a luxury FBO to the Mary Kay customers and sales representatives at the company’s hometown airport.[1]
The need was established when the originator of the Million Air network recognized that their customers and clients were stepping off of multimillion dollar aircraft into facilities that were subpar and designed for maintenance and flight schools, not luxury. The solution was to create their own “aviation oasis” at Million Air Dallas.[1]
Charter Brokerage
In an effort to expand services, Million Air Dallas created a charter brokerage service, MAnext Powered by Million Air Dallas. The charter brokerage offers charter flights all over the world on private jets.
