​29-PSP is a 100% volunteer organization that saves the active-duty military members and their loved ones traveling on leave $500 (roundtrip) in transportation costs between the 29 Palms Marine base and USO centers at Palm Springs (PSP) & Ontario (ONT) airports.
Our volunteer drivers operate between 08:00 and 20:00 daily except some major holidays. In order to provide the best transportation experience, ride requests must be submitted a minimum of 2 days in advance. Due to the limited number of volunteer drivers, we're not able to support requests received outside of that timeline. We have limited volunteers for Ontario (ONT) so please always try to fly from Palm Springs (PSP). For other transportation options, please refer to this page. Palm Springs airport and the airlines have specific military personnel offers available here.
