Customs Clearance Made Easy in Toledo

Great news for carriers traveling into the U.S. from Canada!    

As you may or may not know, KTOL is home to a 5,000 square foot U.S. Customs and Border Protection General Aviation Facility.  Not only is this advanced center outfitted with state-of-the-art technology and upgraded equipment, it is also large enough to accommodate the arrival of multiple aircraft at one time. 

Ready to Assist You

Grand Aire is conveniently located only minutes from this exceptional facility.  We have the means and accessibility to transport customs paperwork directly to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents.  These individuals, who represent the Department of Homeland Security, are responsible for overseeing travelers and commerce while enforcing hundreds of U.S. laws. 

In accordance with these laws, documentation of exports or imports must be presented to CBP agents.  When flying into the U.S. after a cargo drop, with plans to utilize Grand Aire’s FBO, we can notify the CBP of your arrival time and then deliver the necessary documents directly to the customs agent.  This simplified process will save you both time and money. 

Carrying Cargo?   

Flying into the U.S. with freight on board the aircraft?  We can contact CBP agents on your behalf to secure their presence in the customs circle at the expected arrival time.  Once the freight and crew have been cleared by CBP, it’s only a short taxi to Grand Aire where the freight can be offloaded, and you can take advantage of all of the services we have to offer. 

FBO at KTOL

Our Full Service FBO is open 24/7/365.  We are pleased to offer a wide variety of amenities for you to enjoy, including a crew lounge and rest area, flight planning and weather center, hotel and rental car discounts and much more.  For more information, contact our team directly at fbo-lineservice@grandaire.com or give us a call at 1-800-70-GRAND.

If Toledo is within your flight path, consider KTOL as your inbound or outbound customs clearing point.
