Construction of the new MRO facility is financially backed by Miami-Dade County, which has pledged to reimburse the construction costs.  

Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said: “As a leader in international passengers and cargo, MIA is one of the busiest and best mega airports in the country – and AAR’s significant infrastructure investment only advances our local aviation industry. 

“This expansion will strengthen the robust training and repair programs AAR is known for and bring more than 200 new jobs to Miami-Dade County.” 

The facility, which is anticipated to be fully operational by October 2025, is expected to create more than 200 jobs in Miami.
