Company Summary

When it comes to modern aviation business management software, best-of-breed is broken. FBO's today are forced to string together disjointed, legacy software to run their business because nothing better exists. VESSIX’ cloud-based platform addresses the unique challenges facing FBO's and Ground Handling Operations. Our philosophy is simple; create software that doesn't get in the way and makes the modern FBO's life easier and more profitable.
