Great staff and a good location. Really enjoyed my flight with Bob.
May 2014
Regal Air was professional with clean offices, organized dispatching staff. Exceeded expectations for how smooth the checkout went at an operator/company/airport I had never been to before. Highly recommend renting from Regal Air.
August 2014
Flexible, friendly, and conscientious. Their chief CFI was nice enough to give me a quick area briefing. I'll be back for sure.
November 2014
Truly professional outfit with helpful and kind staff.
December 2014
Super friendly and helpful! Communicated well to schedule the rental on short notice too.
February 2015
Consummate professionals.
March 2015

Flying with Carolyn at Regal Air was a positive experience, with good instruction for me.
May 2015
Staff was great. Definitely recommend this place.
May 2015
Very professional outfit. The instructor I spoke with briefly to discuss the local area was very helpful, and the rest of the crew was very pleasant, professional, and courteous. I can't say enough good things.
June 2015
friendly and competent people, nice facility
July 2015
easy and fast booking
July 2015
The UPC checkout was a good refresher and Ricardo did a great job guiding me through it. Booking the plane was a little confusing but Regal's front desk staff handled it well. Ramp techs do a great job keeping plane clean & fueled. Many good destinations nearby.
July 2015
Great team at Regal Air. Very helpful, simple transaction. We brought the plane back after they were closed and it was all set. No issues. We'd clearly rent here again.
July 2015
It has been my experience that Regal planes are always clean, well maintained, and ready to fly.
June 2016
While I never had a chance to meet the staff directly, they were efficient and responsive over the phone. They left a nice headset for my passengers, not the usual falling apart loaner headsets found at most flight schools. The parking spots for their planes are pull through, and the flight planning room was comfortable. Its also hard to beat operating out of the same field as the Boeing factory.
December 2015
I'm always impressed by Regal's service. The night before my rental, they pulled the aircraft over and plugged in the engine heater for the early-morning first flight of the day.
February 2016
Awesome FBO, very well organized and the area to fly around is absolutely beautiful. Excellent experience. Thanks.
April 2016
The FBO staff communicated very well, and they were friendly and helpful. Check in and dispatch of the aircraft were speedy and pleasant. This FBO is really a pleasure to do business with - wish that all FBO's could be like Regal Air.
April 2016
Great service as always
May 2016
I bundled this in to my previous paragraph. I have flown with Regal directly on other occasions and they have always been very professional and encouraging. The Only reason why I am not giving them a 5-star rating has to do with the deficiency of CFI-Is. They have only one on staff and are trying to recruit more. So, if you need to do an OA UPC with instrument privileges, you will need to be very careful in scheduling it.
December 2016
Large clean facility, nice folks both on CFO and business side. Good briefings, local materials, headsets etc. Will rent again when in area.
December 2016
Great staff and very courteous. They went out of the way to accommodate me and m tight schedule. Their facility is also nice with a pilot store and good flight planning areas.
February 2017
Very professional service. Elena was very helpful!
May 2017
A great place -- friendly, organized, and professional.
February 2018
Regal Air made it easy to get on the schedule, and checked in with keys in hand. The plane was ready to go when we got there. The staff took great care of us for a Saturday morning hop to go explore Seattle from the air. Really looking forward to coming back to do it again soon.
May 2019
Very helpful and friendly people with excellent response time to communications and great knowledge of the area. I will be sure to rent from them again next time I am in the area.
