Our company gets into PHX a few times per year and Cutter has ALWAYS been a great place to work with... from pre-planning to arrival and departure. Everyone was helpful, every chance that they could be. Victoria and Gail had the rental car set and waiting at the airplane, the ground crew helped unload the plane quickly & efficiently into the car (I think I should have ordered a larger one) while getting my corporate members safely inside the Cutter building. A day later...while prepping the plane for departure, one of the line crew politely reminded me that if I could take on just 50 gallons more... it meant another entry into the drawing for a few prizes. THAT is great salesmanship. He was ahead of me with every need. Once my passengers arrived they were politely taken care of while I finalized the last few details... all the way until I was marshaled out. We'll be back!! :-)

I flew into Deer Valley (KDVT) AZ today. Two days ago I called Cutter Aviation and arranged a rental through Enterprise. I usually get an economy car at $42.00 a day. My wife and I usually travel alone so that is usually good but our son and dog were with us today. I inquired about a mid size the Cutter staff says its another three bucks $45.00 for a midsize. I'll take it. The Cutter girl never asks for a Credit Card.

I arrive and as usual two Ramp attendants are there singling me into parking. There is a carpet already there when my wife exits the plane. As I exit the plane one of them says "How was your flight Captain." My wife and son already had a bottles of water offered them by the staff when he hands me a bottle. My wife is getting the dogs bowl out when one of them hand her another bottle for our dog.

While I pulled in and shut down one of them had pulled the rental car around. They help me unload the plane and load the car. I pull around to the front and hand the staff my license and Credit Card and I'm out of there in minutes.

I go here four or five times a year and this excellent service is the norm. I'll pay about 70 cents more for gas but getting 35 or so gallons is not a big deal especially since they waive one night ramp fee. No doubt I'll leave with three more bottles of water.

I once called with my normal car rental request and arrived as usual. When I arrive there was no car and they didn't know I was coming. When I checked my call log I had mistakenly called Cutter at Phoenix. Not a problem they had a rental on hand and I'm out of them in minutes.

My wife loves the service and I do too... At Cutter KDVT I'm treated better then I am just about anywhere aviation or non aviation. Sometimes paying a little for convenience and service is worth it. I remember as a kid seeing the servicemen at gas stations filling the
tank and cleaning the windshield.

I know that is a thing of the past but those of you old enough to remember the men in whites with a cap (not a baseball cap) but eight pointer it is a different time. It seems that not to many people are willing to pay for quality in product or service which is to bad in my book.

Times are tough and I try and get the best fuel prices I can but quality service is sure nice.

I recently stopped at KDVT for a fuel & food stop. I had a vacuum pump failure and ended up spending the night. The folks at Cutter were top notch. They found a new pump and drove 40 miles to pick it up. It was installed within one business day. The management and staff could not have been more helpful in everything from the aircraft repair to the rental car and hotel arrangements. We very much appreciated their service. We will certainly be back when we are passing through the Phoenix area.
