About this flight

Depart San Jose for the Palm Springs area on 28 October 2026, exchanging Silicon Valley’s fast-moving rhythm for the open skies of the Coachella Valley. This empty leg arrives at Thermal, offering a gateway to desert communities, golf courses and the wider Palm Springs region. Late October is an appealing time to enjoy warm days and outdoor pursuits after autumn has settled over Northern California. A private jet makes the change of scene feel immediate, whether you are planning a restorative break or joining friends for a desert gathering.

The Cessna Citation X is a heavy jet with a reputation for exceptional speed and a cabin suited to relaxed group travel. It accommodates 12 passengers, giving everyone room to settle in as the landscape shifts from the Bay Area towards Southern California’s mountains and desert. The private onboard setting works equally well for conversation, quiet time or final preparations before arrival. Its performance helps keep the focus on your destination, while the cabin brings comfort and discretion to the journey.

Because the aircraft is already scheduled to fly from San Jose to Thermal, this empty leg creates a distinctive charter opening for travellers headed towards Palm Springs. Align your plans with the 28 October departure and enjoy an existing flight shaped around one of autumn’s most inviting escapes. It is an elegant way to begin a stay beneath the desert sun.

All went very well! Already planning next year's trip — might need a bigger jet for eight of us next time.
