In addition to growth in the infrastructure, the company is also adding to the fleet.  Avantair and Piaggio Aero completed the largest order of Avanti P.180’s in the history of both companies.  The order of 56 Avanti P.180’s totals over $366 million dollars.  With customer service as the cornerstone of the company, Avantair has implemented ongoing service training for its employees to provide the highest quality standards in customer service.
