Neat and clean well maintained ; not a lot of options to eat once you pass through the security. Overall it was a good experience
I fly through this airport quite often and this morning had a less than great start when I arrived a bit more than 40 minutes before my flight. I know the airport is very small and slow, and I have always been able to get to the gate withing 10 minutes of arriving at the airport. This time I was checking a bag instead of doing a carry on only and with AA regulations you must check your bags 45 minutes before the flight is schedule to leave (I know now). Since it was right before 5:30 in the morning and I was being told that my bag could not be checked and I could not leave my bag for the next flight because of a few minutes, I was becoming more peeved by the second. After having the bag check desk help me by explaining policy and what they could do for me I was able to hop on another flight within an hour, not really giving me a major set back in time which was my fear in the first place. If it were not for Laprincess and her efforts to make sure my final destination arrival time was not excessively altered this would have been a 2 star review. Thanks for going the extra mile and not just explaining why I couldn't keep my original travel plans.
Good for Southwest Airlines flights. Owing to light traffic (or is it staffing) pre-TSA check limited to short peak periods. No luggage carts (?) in baggage claim. Exit from airport area (at night) requires proper subservience to contemporary navigation aids or (like myself) be prepared to drive a few unwanted miles on two-lane highways before getting back on track. Return signs were spot on.
Small airport; in and out quickly. Valet parking available if you are in a hurry, pull all the way up till you see the sign for valet parking. Jim n Nick’s BBQ is simply awesome!
Overall a decent small airport. Clean with great staff. My only wish is that they would have more direct flights available.
