Banyan Air Service Now Offering Sustainable Aviation Fuel at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport

Banyan Air Service announces it is now offering sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), making it one of the first South Florida FBOs to commit to SAF from the fuel’s new Port Everglades supply point. This drop-in fuel solution offers a simple, effective way for operators to make a positive environmental impact while maintaining optimal performance.

The SAF is supplied through Avfuel and is blended at a 30% SAF to 70% conventional jet fuel ratio. When blended at this level, SAF can lower lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 24% compared to traditional jet fuel. Moreover, 100% concentrated SAF (unblended) has the potential to reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%, offering a path to significantly greener skies.

The innovative fuel meets ASTM D-1655 specifications, ensuring seamless compatibility with existing aircraft and infrastructure — no modifications required. This significant milestone underscores Banyan’s commitment to advancing sustainability in aviation while delivering exceptional service to its customers.

“Offering SAF is a monumental step for Banyan and the aviation community at FXE,” says Banyan Air Service COO, Jon Tonko. “As the most effective way to reduce the environmental footprint of aviation today, SAF aligns with Banyan’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and supporting our customers in their efforts to fly greener.”

Customers can purchase SAF through Avfuel Contract Fuel. Avfuel is able to provide proper documentation for emissions reporting purposes.
