Infinity Aviation Group Appoints Justin Pridgeon as General Manager of Vero Beach FBO

Infinity Aviation Group has appointed Justin Pridgeon as General Manager of its fixed-base operation at Vero Beach Regional Airport (VRB), where he will oversee day-to-day operations and flight support services. Pridgeon brings more than 20 years of experience in the FBO industry, having previously held various roles managing the Corporate Aviation FBO at VRB — an operation founded by his father, Rodger Pridgeon — most recently serving as Service Line Manager.

"We are thrilled to have Justin join Infinity Aviation Group as General Manager of our Vero Beach FBO, bringing his extensive experience managing this FBO," said Steven Levesque, CEO of Infinity Aviation Group. "With Justin's leadership and commitment to exceptional customer service, we are confident our Vero Beach FBO will quickly become South Florida's preferred destination for private jet travelers. We have plans to continue expanding this facility, adding additional hangar space and services."

The Infinity Aviation VRB FBO includes a 5,000-sq-ft terminal with a passenger lounge, a crew lounge with private bathroom, shower and snooze room, an eat-in kitchen, and a 12-seat conference room. A 3,800-sq-ft U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility enables the airport to handle international arrivals. Eight hangars totaling more than 106,500 sq ft can accommodate aircraft up to the size of a Gulfstream G700 or Bombardier Global 7500. The facility sits immediately adjacent to the airport's primary runway and offers direct access to a 350,000-sq-ft ramp area. Beyond VRB, Infinity Aviation Group operates an FBO at Nashua, NH (KASH), located approximately 45 miles from downtown Boston, and an FBO at Trenton-Mercer Airport (TTN) in New Jersey.

Placing a locally rooted operator in the GM seat at a facility his family previously ran reflects a common pattern in FBO staffing: continuity of relationships and institutional knowledge at a single field often matters as much as network scale. Regional FBOs compete on amenities, hangar capacity able to fit large-cabin aircraft, and customs capability that lets an airport capture international traffic rather than route it through larger hubs.

Levesque's stated plans to expand hangar space and services at Vero Beach suggest the appointment is tied to a broader growth push rather than a standalone leadership change. Whether the facility achieves the stated ambition of becoming a preferred South Florida destination for private jet travelers will depend on how quickly the promised hangar and service additions materialize, and on how the VRB operation performs relative to Infinity's other sites at Nashua and Trenton-Mercer.
