Business Jet Leases 70,000 Sq Ft of New Hangars at Love Field

Dallas – October 21, 2026 -- Business Jet has leased 100% of a newly completed 70,000-square-foot hangar complex at Dallas Love Field (KDAL), lifting its campus to more than 475,000 square feet of hangar and office space across 19 hangars and two executive terminals.

The complex, first announced in August 2025, consists of two side-by-side hangars on the operator's 53-acre site. Partner and CEO Chris Wright said the full lease-up reaffirms strong demand for hangar space at Love Field, and at Business Jet in particular.

West hangar targets single tenant with custom layout

The west hangar is built for one tenant. It has a custom floor plan, a conditioned hangar bay and elevated interior finishes. It also has a tip-up canopy-style door, the first of its kind on the Business Jet campus.
