Redefining the Platinum Standard.

Setting the standard in Private Aviation

Platinum Business Aviation Centre provides premium ground handling and aviation support services for private, corporate, and business aviation operators across Australia.

Founded by Mick Doohan, Platinum was created with a clear vision: to elevate the standard of business aviation services through accountability, precision, and a genuinely client-first approach. With facilities at Gold Coast Airport and Essendon Fields Airport, the company has established itself as one of Australia’s leading Fixed Base Operators.

Platinum combines global best practice with hands-on leadership and deep local expertise. Every arrival and departure is managed with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a seamless experience for aircraft operators, passengers, and crew. The company operates with a philosophy that responsibility is never outsourced and service is never compromised.

At the Gold Coast, Platinum is the authorised agent for World Fuel Services, supplying Jet A-1 and Aviation Gasoline in full compliance with the global standards set by the Joint Inspection Group. These operations are independently audited to ensure the highest levels of safety, consistency, and reliability in aviation fuel management.

Across its locations, Platinum delivers a comprehensive range of services including aircraft ground handling, private passenger lounges, concierge services, crew facilities, and aircraft presentation — all delivered with discretion, efficiency, and a deep understanding of the expectations that accompany private aviation.

As a member of the Air Elite Network, Platinum forms part of a global network recognised for operational excellence, financial strength, and an uncompromising commitment to safety. This international reach is combined with the personalised attention of a founder-led organisation.

At Platinum Business Aviation Centre, excellence is not optional. Every flight, every guest, and every detail matters.
