Great FBO. I have flown into Cochran Airport a few times to visit Palm Desert. They have nice services inside and parking and good attendance. Very clean and friendly.
From the Request For Quote, all the way through to the Return To Service date, Desert Jet Aircraft Maintenance was undoubtedly the right choice for our heavy inspection. As a part 91 corporate flight department, we benefit from doing business with those who understand our operations, as well as our aircraft.
One of the most efficient and friendly FBOs. Amazing People!
Great service all around. Timely, professional, extremely courteous and know what they’re doing. I’ve been in aviation for some time, and this is a quality organization.
Desert Jet Center is our top FBO for the Palm Springs area for a lot of reasons. Great facility, safety culture, and pricing. Also, an added bonus is the fact that they have Maintenance on-site with a very knowledgeable team.
We just recently flew in to TRM Desert Jet and needed a maintenance team to check out our plane. The team was very helpful and took care of us right away even though it was later in the evening. Big thank you for helping us out.
Excellent CSRs, going out of their way for us. Line does an excellent job as well. Great FBO because of the people who work there.
