SEAT - Servicios de Apoyo en Tierra

Canon Air
FlightAware's MMBT services listing shows Canon Air as the sole fuel contact at Huatulco, with posted pricing for both Avgas 100LL and Jet A; Canon Air's own site describes itself as a trip-support/permits and ground-handling coordination provider across Mexico rather than an owner of fixed fuel infrastructure, so fuel is likely arranged via the ASA farm on request.
