Aircraft Disinsection at Addison Airport (ADS)
Addison is one of the busiest business aviation airports in Texas, sitting in the middle of North Dallas’s corporate corridor. Departures to Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe leave from ADS every day.
If your next departure from ADS is to a country that requires disinsection, we come to your aircraft here, treat it empty before boarding to the WHO pre-embarkation method, and issue the certificate for the flight. ADS sits in our central response region: typically same day to next morning, within 24 hours of confirmation.
About Addison Airport
Addison is one of the busiest business aviation airports in Texas, sitting in the middle of North Dallas’s corporate corridor with a dense cluster of FBOs and based aircraft. Departures to Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe leave from ADS every day. Addison packs one of the densest business aviation communities anywhere onto a single north Dallas field, with hangar rows running the length of the runway.
Where the requirement comes from
Whatever the destination, the mechanism is the same: the arriving country requires the aircraft to have been disinsected, and pre-embarkation treatment at the last port before that country, performed on the empty aircraft, is a method it accepts. For a non-stop flight out of ADS, that last port is ADS.
ADS sends aircraft south: the Caribbean on short sectors and South America on long ones. Jamaica, Barbados, Chile and Paraguay all require disinsection on arrival, and Chile, Paraguay, Italy round out the usual list. Where a South American trip from Addison Airport stops en route, the treatment plan changes, so we ask for the full routing before confirming.
How it works on the ADS ramp
Once the plan is set we work directly with the ADS FBO and your crew on access, ramp position and timing. Our technician arrives before the agreed slot, confirms the aircraft is empty with catering and cleaning done, and applies the WHO pre-embarkation treatment through the cabin, flight deck and holds. After the specified rest and ventilation the aircraft is released for boarding, certificate in hand.

Can you get to ADS on short notice?
Often, yes. We travel to Addison from our base and handle our own logistics; the earlier we hear about a likely trip the more precisely we can time the treatment, but short-notice requests are a normal part of the work.
