Fred T.

Travis Air Force Base (KSUU) is located in Fairfield, California. The base has its origins all the way back to 1942. It is named after Brigadier General Robert F. Travis who died in a B-29 crash there in 1950. Both of its offset runways area quite long at 11,000 and 10995 feet. Travis, is the home of the 60th Air Mobility Wing, part of the USAF Air Mobility Command. It is primarily a home to C-5's, C-17's, and KC-10's. In addition as the "Gateway to the Pacific" it hosts a variety of units just passing through on they way East or West. In addition there is a USN detachment of E-6B Mercury (TACAMO) aircraft as this is considered one of their West Coast outposts (Normally they are based at Tinker AFB, in Oklahoma). The David Grant USAF Medical Center, a 200+ bed hospital is also on the base. Unless you have business or stationed on the base there is no visiting. However, it is a phenomenal place to plane spot as the various aircraft there practice touch and goes, and are in such demand you are guaranteed to catch a few. Indeed it was the opportunity to catch the LC-130H. These planes have giant ski's in addition to normal landing gear to enable snow landings. Operated by the New York Air National Guard, they are super rare. They overnight at Travis on the way to New Zealand. From there they fly in support of the National Science Foundations Antarctica bases

11/9/2022: Huzzaahh!!!! Travis Air Force Base's Pass & ID is fully operational unlike, last visit, DEERS was out of commission, i.e., the computers were down thus, my primary main reason revisiting Travis Air Force Base for the second time in two weeks. After waiting fifteen minutes in the waiting area, my name was called, showed the NCO my information, he updated my profile, and created a new Federal ID Card for me within ten minutes.

It was great to come on-site to see the AirShow. Love the soldiers who direct traffics to get into the base parking lot. The Blue Angles put a great show. I will do it again.

This is our 2nd tour here & been here for 3 years now. We came back to Travis because my husbands family is here & its so nice to be close to family again. I love it the base its since we r in the bay there is so much to do & so much to see & everything is so close to to us. Vacaville outlets, Vallejo 6 flags, Napa/Sonoma wine country, Sacramento state capital, San Francisco golden gate, Oakland RAIDERS! = ), Reno lil Vegas & lake Tahoe & so many more here. Since we r military they offer so many discounts & tours. The housing is really nice I love our neighborhoods everyone is very nice & I love the military families coz they r always there to help when u need it. This base had really change since we were here last back in 2001-2004. They had built a nice hotel with a cute lil cafe downstairs. The gym is renovated n looks great & offers babysitting with the parents takes turns watching each others kids. The BX is being renovated its a lil crazy but I know it will look great when its done. There is a lot more lil shops in front of the BX. the only lil down fall is that the schools on base is ok not the best but ok. I really miss the schools overseas DODs.

Travis is no Army post that's for sure! A theatre, bowling alley, bar, aquatic center, and more.

A very kind company!…read more My son was turning 4 this past weekend and didn't want a party, just a ride in a "super stretch long car". My hunt for a limo service felt defeated as hardly any local companies still offered traditional limos and def wouldn't budge on 4-5hr+ minimums. I reached out to several and pleaded my case for a shorter rental and was rejected by everyone besides A1. Although they do have a minimum hour rental they made an exception to make our son's birthday wish come true. We got a great rate, perfect friendly service and one happy kid who felt SO cool on his limo ride. I'm so thankful for them for helping me make this happen and would recommend them for any special event needs. communication prior to service was top tier which I found was severely lacking with the other companies I was in contact with. Thank you again A1

We rented the limo from 6:00 pm-12:00 am. He showed up around 5:30 pm and waited patiently while the kids finished taking photos. He had cider, sodas and water for the kids along with glasses and cups for them. They could play their own music. Once they arrived at The Asian Art Museum in SF and he dropped them off, he texted me and sent a photo of them heading up the stairs and let me know they had arrived safely. He asked me to share his work phone number with the kids so that they could call him once the dance ended and they could find him just in case. He reassured me that they did not have to rush as well. He had them back home by 11:40 pm safe and sound. The kids said he was great. I have Life360 on my son's phone and I was checking just to see where they were going to and from Prom and he was driving safe and the kids said he drove safe. They all had a great experience and said he was very nice. I highly recommend Sunny and A-1 Limo Service. Thank you for being apart of their Prom experience! They had a great time.

Plus when the teens can plug in their music to the sound system....well c'mon now....life is good. Rolf made it easy to plan and was excellent in following up with communication.

5 Stars all the way!…read more Rolf was amazing. From beginning to end we had amazing service. I did a lot of research to order a limo for wine tasting in Napa. He took us to 3 amazing wineries. The last winery was our favorite. Rolf is a friend of the owner so we got a private tour and everything. He made a pit stop for us and everything. He knew a lot about the area and which wineries would be the most impressive. He was very sweet and professional and we felt that we were old friends instantly. The limo was great. A white stretch limo. He showed up with waters stocked and a bottle of champagne. We got to play all of our music through a USB that hooked up to our iPods. The best part about the service is that it is extremely affordable. When I asked why it was less expensive then all the other limo services out there he said he just really wants people to become repeat costumers. Rolf, thanks so much for a great time and being so friendly it really made our trip to Napa ten times better. I will definitely be a repeat costumer and will send all my friends your way in the future. For all those who are turned off by some negative reviews you see. I too was skeptical and had a open honest conversation with Rolf. That was a long time ago and like every business sometimes you just have hiccups and kinks that need to be ironed out. In our case all of our expectations were more than just fulfilled. Rolf went over and beyond them.

My family were happy because they didn't have to worry about driving to the airport and figuring out where to park. The biggest thing was that he comes right to your door and you can sleep the entire ride. Thanks Yad for your wonderful service!!

They usually use Evans Transportation if their kids can't pick them up. But because of COVID, Evans was not operating. Not wanting them to be stranded at the airport and knowing they don't know how to use Uber or Lyft, I decided to search for other alternatives. I knew I wanted something where I can pay in advance so my parents didn't need to worry about paying, and something that can drive them and their luggage directly home with no other passengers in the car. I looked at reviews on Yelp and saw that Golden Gate had some good ones. I compared prices to some other shuttle services as well and decided this was very reasonable. I sent out a message through Yelp and they responded quickly. I was able to set up a shuttle ride over the phone two days in advance to have my parents picked up from SFO. What I really liked and the reason I give this company 5 stars, was their clear communication. My parents are not clear communicators, so it was imperative that I needed a shuttle service that could understand and work with me to help my parents find their way from plane to shuttle. While I was stuck at work. Lol. They were able to check on my parents' flight status, and the driver arrived on time. My parents did not follow directions (I knew it) so the driver had to contact me, but they eventually contacted the shuttle driver and found each other. Once in the car they realized they did not have their house keys. Luckily, I work one exit away from their house and the driver was kind enough to make a stop by my work to pick up my copy of keys. I really appreciate the good service this shuttle company provided. I have not personally used this service, but my parents have said that they would definitely use them again. Ride was smooth, car was clean, driver wore a mask. At a time where we are experiencing a pandemic and stress levels are high, it's good to know getting a ride from the airport is one less thing to worry about. If you are reading this and wondering if this shuttle service is any good, I highly recommend them. Bookmark this page!
