EGE is a wonderful airport with one of the finest FBOs you will visit. I brought my mother here in N8163F. We enjoyed sitting in the FBO eating cookies, drinking chicken soup, hot chocolate and coffee and enjoying the spectacular view. We joked about just staying in the FBO and blowing off Vail. The staff's SS fuel advice saved us $2 a gallon. Thank you Vail Valley Jet Center.

I'm really baffled by the previous commentary. The Jet Center isn't the chamber of commerce. Someone has to pay for the linemen who take care of our planes. I've never been to any FBO in a major market, much less Vail, that doesn't have a ramp fee offset by fuel to cover the luxury. I stopped there for a night to see my brother. I have a Cessna TR182 and I can't believe I would have been treated any better if I'd been the pilot of a G5. I checked in my plane and she was delightful. I'm guilty, I took some cookies and enjoyed the facilities. She asked about fuel and I told her I'd load 60 gallons or so of 100LL at the SS, (I really like to fill my own plane). Then she asked when I'd like to have the plane brought out for me the next morning. I feel lucky they have the integrity not to stick to the little guy because they're the only FBO in town. All I paid for was the tiedown. Thanks for taking for Little Ole Me!

While one can only acknowledge the luxurious Vail Valley Jet Center facilities catering to the jet setters visiting the region, on my recent visit on September 10, 2011, I found it distasteful to hear the refueling blackmail: either you refuel your airplane or you will be imposed a landing fee. Such a welcome should be clearly stated on the AFD or the AirNav page. I did not extend my stay longer than 75mn. There are many other beautiful airport facilities in Colorado with a more gracious welcome.

Visited overnight in TBM 700. Not much to add to previous comments. Very high level of facilities, service and staffing. Minimum load of 70 gallons for the TBM. This is definitely a 5-star facility with matching prices.

In and out on July 11 and July 14 in a Citation Encore. Super service from the FBO in a super facility. If you call ahead for pricing or any special requests, get the name of the person that you talked to.... FBO needs to understand that 150gal of JetA to waive the facility fee is a lot of fuel for some jets (Encore). Maybe they will lower the minimum upload after some careful thought. PAX used GoRentals for rental cars. They are GRRREAT! Met us at the airplane, vehicle all cooled down and the GPS loaded for the destination, helped with the bags and had water for the PAX. There was a misunderstanding about the car rental rate, however, Daniellea went the extra mile and fixed it to our satisfaction, She saved the bacon and gets a big atta-girl for that. FBO concierge, Emily, was a great assistance here too. Both days grabbed a sandwich from the on-site caterer. No complaints there. All in all very pleasant experience.

These folks are awesome, and so is their facility! From helping you to unload to having the plane fueled and ready as agreed upon on the morning of departure, it was all about friendly service. I highly recommend this FBO for your travels.

Arrived in our new SR-22 on a Saturday. FBO is beautiful. My kids were happy to partake in the lemonade and cookies. Spent 2 days visiting relatives. Per the service agreement they serviced the O2, filled fuel and brought the plane to the line at the time requested. Their service was excellent. Fuel was $6.09/gal and charged a $10 per night tie down fee. Highly recommended.

Nice facility. They had cookies, ice water, and lemonade available. We were treated great even though we flew our C172 in. We were the only piston on the ramp. FYI, they do have a $15 ramp fee that is waived with 10 gallons of fuel (even if you use the self serve pumps)

The folks at Vail Valley Jet Center are great. I flew in, in my C414, and wanted to use the self-service avgas pumps, which have a great price. The pumps were out of service, so Vail Valley Jet Center gave me the self-service rate on their full service fuel. The fueler did mistakenly miss two of the six tanks on the airplane, but the situation was rectified very quickly. Kelsey at the desk was also great. Excellent avgas fuel stop!

In today with our Turbo Commander N900NE. Even though we are usually the smallest, sometimes only prop, on their ramp, we always get best of everything. Rental car delivered planeside, lovely lobby area and facilities for pax and crew. Thanks folks. Well done.

Great Service over an extremely busy New Year's weekend. Denver Center radar problems caused a large departure backup, staff did an excellent job accommodating all in a standing room only FBO. Fuel prices on the high side but reasonable when considering large well trained staff and some days no sales due to wx. Parking for Citation $25 per night, good deal.

This is a first class FBO with great service. As you can see, their 100LL is pretty expensive, but there's a SS alternative on the field that's more reasonable. Their tie down fees are very reasonable. Lots of big iron to see, and even spoke to John and Martha King in the lobby.

Excellent facilities and friendly (though very busy) staff. Self serve pumps located on the north side of the runway, east of the army ramp. There IS self serve Jet A right next to the 100LL, even single-point, though they don't seem to advertise it.

First time I've ever seen a grand piano in a FBO lobby! Great facility, friendly staff, great cookies. Weird fuel situation: cheap self-serve, but fairly expensive on the truck. Go figure. Overall a big thumbs-up.
