If you’re anything like me, you can appreciate an easy travel experience. I travel at least once a month and every single time, I dread the airport experience. I seriously think I have some type of anxiety, believe it or not, because I find myself wanting to shed tears each time I’m waiting in the airport for hours for my flight.

These days, traveling back and forth to my home town will be an experience I can actually look forward to. My sister forwarded me an email she received about Jet Suite X and without much context to exactly what I was looking at, I reluctantly went to the site and started pricing flights. Living in Arizona but frequently driving back and forth to LA has a taken a toll on my patience so I knew that if I found a decently priced flight, I would probably take it.

I have to say that the website was very simple and everything I read online (which wasn’t much) seemed legit.  But of course, I would never know the legitimacy of the company until I actually experienced it for myself so I was a bit nervous after I booked my flight, to say the least. I ended up paying about $136 roundtrip for a flight from Phoenix to Burbank. It was a smoking deal after a referral promo code for 20% off that I found online, so I couldn’t pass it up. 

When I arrived at the departure location near Sky Harbor Phoenix airport, it was very quiet. There were several cars parked out in the lot but the large “JetSuite X” sign to the entrance was easy to find.

As soon as I entered, I noticed a nice photo op (we love those!) with a fancy step and repeat in the right corner. There was an open seating area and in the back left corner I spotted the check-in counter.

The waiting area was very spacious and clean with rustic decor throughout. There was also a small counter with complimentary snacks (pretzels and nuts) as well as water, tea, and a Starbucks machine that dispensed various coffee flavors and hot chocolate. No complaints here!

I arrived about 40 minutes before my flight to provide ample time to check-in and I learned that it was more than I needed. I had one bag to check and after providing my ID for check in, the attendant swabbed my bags and placed my checked bag onto a cart. When it was time to board, a flight attendant politely called for our flight and most people in the waiting area quickly jumped up, ready to board.

Getting on the plane was a breeze. No long, unsteady corridors here! You walk outside and right up to your 30 passenger jet. The plane was very clean and still had that “new” smell to it.

On this flight, I was greeted by the very lovely, KC, our flight attendant and shortly after departure, asked for my drink order. One thing to note, the “fun” drinks are free on all flights! Sounds like a nice pregame before a Vegas flight, if you ask me. She also came around with a nice assortment of snack options. All complimentary!

I ordered the Mango Margarita which was actually a powdered mix that you had to add water and tequila to make come alive. After mixing for a good 2 minutes, it turned out pretty darn good. Not sure if it was the tequila or the mix, but I was satisfied upon completion.

The flight was smooth and I could barely tell that I was on a smaller plane. I know there is a common notion that flying in a smaller plane automatically means you will feel more turbulence BUT not on this flight. I actually felt like this flight was smoother than most I have experienced in the past few months with commercial airlines. (It was a clear night so weather could have played a part in this.)

A short hour passed before we safely landed at the Bob Hope Burbank Airport. The Jet Suite X terminal is about a mile away from all the other main terminals and is located in a nice discreet space with no traffic that really makes you wonder why you can’t use Jet Suite X for ALL air travel.

Getting off the plane was super simple and not time consuming at all. I walked off of the plane and right into the Jet Suite X Hangar.

Luggage retrieval is somewhat equivalent to what it is like when you ride the GreyHound (don’t judge me). You literally wait in the hangar as they unload your luggage onto a cart and you grab what is yours from there.

Overall, this experience has got me hooked. From the easy booking to inflight treats to arriving on time and being able to leave the airport without traffic? Flying commercial is a faux pas at this point!

If you’re looking for a hassle-free and cost effective option to flying somewhere, I have to say, Jet Suite X is the BEST option.
