March 1, 2025NO FUEL Took a 90 minute hold up with Pax waiting. If you need more than a couple thousand gallons suggest getting a guarantee of availability or use a better resourced FBO.

November 6, 2024Lisa's the early morning receptionist with the diabetic dog + another old husky & a cat. Kenny G is the guy with the 'cool voice' according to Ruth.

July 28, 2024Good C.A.A. fuel costs. Fine facility. However, odd fee structure. Charges are per day. So, for instance, one overnight stay even when leaving within 24 hours is billed as two days. Why?

July 6, 2024Fine reception area. Constrained ramp. Expensive day ramp charges $800/ day Hawker. We stayed there 2 evenings under 48 hours and billed for 3 days!! C.A.A. fuel cost is fine but is cancelled out with the steep ramp. Service was adequate, CSRs so-so? We shall return to utilizing BUR and millionair.

February 29, 2024Very bad service and uninterested demeanor. No assistance loading or unloading baggage. Simply parked our plane and departed. Then on departure took the cones away from the plane and observed me taking the bags from our car and then drove off. Many justifications about being occupied with other planes on arrival and departure. Poorly supplied lounge and dated decor and restrooms. Will never return, and will gladly pay greater prices. C&C now has the CAA at VNY. I'm returning to Clay Lacy, they are top tier.

July 10, 2025Castle and Cooke Aviation at KVNY has been consistently disappointing over almost two years. Since securing the CAA fuel contract at my home field, service has been sluggish, unwelcoming, and forgetful. The line crew roll their eyes when I show up, decline to fuel at my hangar, and one time shouted at me after I parked where their own frequency instructed me to. KVNY has superior FBOs—try somewhere else. If the culture shifts, I would give them a fresh opportunity, but I am not optimistic.

January 13, 2025Flew Piper Piston for quick lunch. They were fine enough to squeeze me in, on the day of, as they were fully booked. No LL. $40 per day ramp fee $25 facility fee $65 paid for my hour stay Allowed use of Courtesy Car (a small mercedes SUV) Hey, it's VNY/LA... things are costly. I would return though since I have family nearby.

October 10, 2024GPU is apparently not usable for starts, that is something you should inform crews before they board the plane. Really strange limitation.

July 19, 2024I read the prior remarks and they remain accurate. I flightbridged and phoned an hour before departing. They phoned as i was booting up the aircraft to get an updated eta. When I arrived they parked me in the farthest possible corner and the sloppily dressed fellow that met me at the aircraft had no notion I had pax and was incorrect on our departure. They did drive pax to/from main fbo. I stayed at the north building. It is technically a lobby but it is treated more like a line guy rest spot. Mixed experience
