FDA 483 - Signature Flight Support [GSO] - June 17, 2025

An FDA inspection conducted on June 16-17, 2025, identified significant sanitation and maintenance deficiencies at an unnamed facility, with observations issued to Krista L. Schmidtner, Guest Experience Specialist. The findings, documented on an FDA Form 483, indicate that servicing areas were not adequately maintained to prevent the spread of communicable diseases, falling under Section 704(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act concerning insanitary conditions. Key violations included the storage of five-gallon water jugs directly on the floor, a recurring issue from a prior inspection. The catering refrigerator repeatedly exceeded its defined temperature limit of 41°F in March 2025, reaching 42°F on multiple occasions, with no corrective actions documented. Furthermore, multiple dead flies were observed behind both the catering refrigerator and the ice machine. Sanitation of the ice machine was severely overdue, with the last cleaning performed in March 2023. Additionally, pooled water was found around a lavatory cart. These observations necessitate prompt and effective corrective actions from the firm to ensure compliance with food safety regulations and prevent potential contamination or health risks.
