Excellent facility and easy self-service fueling. Helpful, friendly staff and reasonable tie-down charges. Much better for GA than PSP. Recommended!

Been her twice in the last month & the place is great! Easy Access, Friendly folks & even a tug to move our Lear to a better spot - all at no charge! This airport has that "home-town" feeling not found at many airports these days! We’ll be back! Thank you Thermal Self Serve!

I have used Thermal Self Serve several times now and the fuel is always very reasonable. Dan helped me move my plane from the fuel dock to his tie-down, and Sergio from West Coast rental had a new clean car there as promised. Can't imagine using anyone else for going to Palm Springs.

DAN IS THE MAN! Great service at fantastic prices. Absolutely a 5 star rating. Dan went as far as to leave the rental car at our designated tie-down spot for a late night arrival. I only wished I had read the prior AirNav comments about the transient parking location more carefully - as Mac points out 2 comments below, they are the most westerly two rows of what appears to be the Signature area (I.E. They are 50 yards east of the fuel island). 2TM.

Thermal Self Serve is the best self-serve facility in the Nation. We saved $1250 filling up our Citation over what Signature was charging for fuel. Dan, the owner was available by cell phone and was present to help fuel my Citation. My participation in the fueling process was to hand Dan my Amex card that was it. The facility was new, clean and extremely well maintained. Thermal self serve is THE alternative in the Palm Springs area to the traditional FBO. If you want your eyes and wallet gouged out, go to one of the other FBO's, but if you want clean, fresh fuel and you like your hard earned $$$ to stay in your wallet, Thermal Self Serve is the place to go!

Great place with great prices - highly recommended. The location of Thermal Aviation's transient parking wasn't obvious, but they're the closest two rows - about 50 yards east of the self-serve pump. Got the rental car through West Coast Rent-a-Car. They drove the car right to my aircraft.

Self service but not really. Dan met me as we parked the airplane by the self service pumps, then fueled us, then helped me use the tug as I moved the airplane into parking (I saw several jets and turboprops use the tug while I waited). He gave me the keys to a crew car, and then pointed me to the pilot lounge. Great service, price, and experience. Highly recommended!

This is perhaps the cleanest, best self serve system I have visited. They have restrooms available across the taxiway... and you can even practice your putting. What a place!

I use Thermal Aviation, which is near the self serve fuel pumps $3.53 for 100LL and Dan at Thermal Aviation provided me with a tie down for the week during the AOPA conference. The customer service here is excellent.

Stopped here for refuel during the AOPA expo stay. Great place, easy self-pump, and helpful staff. Beat Signature 10-0

If you are buying 100LL or JET A and can pump it yourself, and want to get ripped off, then go to Signature. If not, go to the awesome Thermal SS pumps. Bring your putter, and play a little golf since there is a putting green right next to the pumps. Really some of the nicest facilities I have seen in this state.

I had a conference in Indian Wells for several days last week. I chose Thermal as my overnight airport because they were so very helpful on the telephone, even though the airport is further (although not much) from Indian Wells than Palm Springs or Bermuda Dunes. Dan was great in every respect. The rental car was delivered immediately. Thermal Aviation was most gracious and helpful in every respect, and I was able to secure a hangar from them for a reasonable rate. Thermal Aviation deserves your business. Thanks!!

Great stop. Cheap fuel and Dan helped push us back with his tug (a big help with a 340). Bring nacelle plugs, we didn't have any a 40+ mile per hour dust storm left lots of dirt in our engines.

Pilot lounge and restrooms were a welcome facility, plus the fun of landing 135' below sea level. It was a perfect stop in the Palm Springs area for great prices and a easy hop to either of the higher priced airports in the valley.

I made two stops over the weekend at Thermal. These guys are top notch! Just because it says Self Service doesn't mean that they are not great. Very clean fuel area, bathrooms and a pilot lounge with Internet access for preflighting are available. We were even able to get a crew car to drive into town for lunch. Picnic tables, a putting green are there for the weekend warrior. And yes, the fuel prices are what they say! If you need to make a fuel stop, check these guys out!

The people and facilities are outstanding!! Best price on Jet A anywhere I have found in the country. In fact I liked it so much I bought a big hangar (50x60) plus complete crew quarters. Thermal Self Server and my hangar are a MUCH better deal than paying over $2.00 more per gallon at MillionAir / Signature!

Dan at Thermal Self Serve was very helpful, friendly, great service, very clean facility....out of the way service along with the best 100LL price in SoCal. I will be back.
