Ozair Charter owner Mark Burgess has been featured by Springfield Business Journal as one of “12 People you Need to Know” in 2024.

What’s up next for Mark? Let’s just say it involves international flights - and deli sandwiches!
Please join us in congratulating Mark May 21 from 3:30-5:00 at The Backlot at Alamo Drafthouse.
