Fly Private to Des Moines, Iowa
Des Moines’ 215 000 residents rank top in the nation for insurance company HQs and proudly host a butter cow at the Iowa State Fair.
Caucus cycles, ag‑tech summits and state‑fair crowds push 7 000 private jets through DSM. The team at Just Landed Jets arranges covered gangways and farm‑tour day trips.
Fly Private to the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines
Every mid‑August, butter sculptures, prize hogs, and “anything‑on‑a‑stick” treats transform the Iowa State Fairgrounds into an 11‑day showcase of Heartland tradition first held in 1854. Grandstand concerts mix with tractor pulls while the SkyGlider offers bird’s‑eye views of it all.
More than 1.1 million fairgoers — triple the state’s capital population — generate a $100 million economic surge and boost DSM’s flight operations by 20 percent. Skip the Interstate 35 gridlock by booking Just Landed Jets and retreat to a cool, quiet cabin between corndogs and night shows. We’ll even store your blue‑ribbon pies in pressurized comfort for the flight home.
Iconic Des Moines Eats: Must‑Try Local Cuisine for Private Jet Travelers
Pork‑chop‑on‑a‑stick, sweet‑corn ice cream and hot‑beef sundaes (gravy instead of fudge) headline menus; craft breweries pour cream‑ale spiked with Iowa honey. Our team can ensure you get there, so you can stock mini corn‑dogs, rhubarb crisp and strawberry‑rhubarb soda in your cabin cooler for a sweet prairie departure.
Centro — A True Des Moines Experience
Housed in a 1913 Masonic temple downtown, this bustling Italian trattoria has been the city’s see‑and‑be‑seen spot since 2002, churning out wood‑fired pizzas and house‑made pastas for legislators and festivalgoers alike. White‑subway‑tile walls, an open kitchen and late‑night hours keep the energy high. Centro earns constant praise for blending big‑city polish with Iowa farm ingredients harvested just miles away.

Pappajohn Sculpture Park turns the business district into an open‑air gallery perfect for morning jogs. Food halls in the East Village serve globally inspired breakfasts before buyers head to the historic Farmers’ Market. Capitol tours show off a 23‑karat‑leaf dome that glints across the city. Afternoons bring craft‑brewery “tour de beers” by bike along the Meredith Trail.
Hot‑Air Bacon Bash — Des Moines’ skyward breakfast tradition
During the National Balloon Classic, select balloons launch early with onboard griddles sizzling Iowa bacon, served in tortillas once aloft. Passengers float over golden cornfields at sunrise while the aroma drifts out over cheering spectators below. Flights seat four and require minimal agility to climb into the basket. Dietary swaps available, but bacon lovers call it bucket‑list bliss.
Iowa’s capital sits amid rolling plains, delivering hot summers, cold winters, and a lively state‑fair scene.
