LETO
A ground support facility at Madrid-Torrejón Airport, supporting trips throughout Spain
Welcome to Madrid!
In Spain, we have a famous saying: “España es diferente.” We believe this applies not only to our country, but also to the services we offer. We always go the extra mile to ensure that all your requests are met in a fast and efficient manner, and we aim to offer you a real flavor of our country and our culture whenever you visit.
We are the only facility at Madrid Airport to have an outdoor terrace, which we encourage our clients to enjoy. Our offices and VIP lounges are located adjacent to the business aviation ramp to ensure the quickest possible turnaround of your aircraft.
We want you to feel at home at Universal Aviation in Madrid, and we want you to return to us again and again, knowing that you will receive the same first-class Spanish service and hospitality every time.
On behalf of all the team, we look forward to welcoming you on your next visit.
Sincerely,
Gonzalo Barona
Managing Director
