Titan puts SAF into Desert Jet's Coachella Valley FBO
Desert Jet is providing an option for aircraft management clients and FBO customers who want to use a renewable alternative fuel source for their aircraft through its Desert Jet Center FBO.
Titan will deliver the World Energy-produced SAF to Desert Jet Center at KTRM.

Desert Jet has partnered with Titan Aviation Fuels to establish the supply of sustainable aviation fuel at its flagship FBO, Desert Jet Center at Jacqueline Cochran Regional airport, including using SAF for its charter aircraft fleet.

The SAF, supplied by Titan Aviation Fuels and produced by World Energy, is a low-carbon and eco-friendly alternative to traditional Jet-A fuel. It is made from agricultural waste and residues converted into a renewable fuel source that can reduce carbon emissions significantly compared to fossil-based jet fuel. The Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials certifies that the fuel meets the same safety and performance standards as conventional Jet-A fuel and can be used in existing aircraft without requiring any modifications.

Desert Jet CEO Jared Fox says: "We are delighted to provide an option for aircraft management clients and FBO customers who desire to use a renewable alternative fuel source for their aircraft through our Desert Jet Center FBO. Offering SAF to our clients is a significant milestone for us as we continue to lead the way in sustainable aviation practices."

Titan EVP Mike Allen adds: "We at Titan Fuels look forward to working with Desert Jet to support its SAF initiative by providing a source for its current and future sustainable fuel needs."

Desert Jet's commitment to sustainability extends beyond adding SAF at its FBO and charter flights. Its partnership and sustainability strategy plays a vital role in promoting greater awareness and adoption of SAF.
