best turboprop aircraft
on the market!... Give them a try!!
-Tarek A. via Yelp.com
We also feel that the PC-12 aircraft bid by Boutique Air presents the
safest and most
comfortable option for the traveling public.
-Hon. Mayor David Lansford in Recommendation Letter
City of Clovis, NM
Flew with Boutique from LA to Vegas and back and must say I was extremely surprised. From
the ease of check-in, To the flight itself,
the whole process was great
. Price was
competitive with any other airline out there. I plan on flying boutique for all my Vegas outings,
and may even look into renting the whole plane for a group trip. Thanks Boutique!
