International Airport Larnaca (LCLK)

by Thomas2025-08-25 15:11:59 UTC

Larnaca is the main airport for Cyprus and therefore large and expensive. You'll often have departure delays because you're number 8 after Easyjet, Ryanair, DHL and UPS. Paphos/LCPH is much less busy....

International Airport Pafos (LCPH)

by Thomas2025-08-25 15:09:30 UTC

Despite being a huge airport, LCPH doesn't have much traffic and is astonishingly GA friendly except the handling pricing. You can shoot basically as many training approaches as you like without any...

Airport Schoenhagen (EDAZ)

by Thomas2025-08-25 13:33:47 UTC

One of the best and most friendly GA airports when traveling to Berlin - highly recommended. No slot coordination call required anymore! Also customs handling is available for non-schengen Flights, e....

Good customs field for returning back from Canada with a Citation Mustang. Uneventful FBO, Modern Aviation - CAA fuel prices. 1 gal of fuel waives the ramp fee. Overnight fee was $50. Big annoyance:...

Civil Airfield Lake Tahoe Airport (KTVL)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:13:50 UTC

Mountain West Aviation - Very friendly people. Easy email communication before landing. Conveniently located to most nice hotels. They close early in low season, so watch the opening times. Recommende...

Great airport to visit Zion National Park! The Airport Manager, LaDell Bistline Sr. is a wonderful, super-friendly and helpful person. They have a crew car which they rent out on first come first serv...

Civil Airfield Scottsdale Airport (KSDL)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:12:51 UTC

Atlantic Aviation - I phoned them before and they had all my details, so literally three minutes after exiting the plane I sat in my Uber. Fast and convenient. $35 per night plus $10 tax plus $15 secu...

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:12:38 UTC

Jet Service has nice, friendly and helpful staff, everything‘s super fast, they have a really good coffee machine and plenty of space. Highly recommended.

Civil Airfield Canouan Airport (TVSC)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:12:31 UTC

Canouan is definitely worth visiting, one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean. Huge runway, very friendly staff who are used to handle jets. They helped us with the luggage, good vibe. Comm...

Nice FBO with CAA pricing, but terrible customer service at check out. Took the lady at the desk forever to enter the data for an invoice, I waited at least 15 minutes. She was totally overwhelmed an...

Friendly people. Very cheap self serve fuel, refueled a Mustang for a bargain. Overall turnaround time was 27 minutes. Great for a fuel stop.

Beautiful FBO, friendly line people who gave us some tips where to get food. Not cheap, but very good service.

Civil Airfield John C Tune Airport (KJWN)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:10:41 UTC

Contour Flight Support - Came there with a Citation Mustang. Nice, friendly and busy FBO. Friendly people, everything worked fine. Perfect to explore Nashville. Would go there again anytime.

Civil Airfield Henry E Rohlsen Airport (TISX)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:10:37 UTC

Bohlke International Aviation: Best FBO ever. OMG, these people are the friendliest and most helpful people on earth! Sent emails before and asked for a quick turnaround, everything was already perfe...

Expensive and not exceptional. Everthing worked, but nothing special about it.

Nice and friendly people, came there with a Citation Mustang, they drove our luggage with a small e cart to the main building. Just make sure you double check the bill, they accidentally put the Citat...

Very very friendly and helpful FBO. We pre-ordered a Go rental car without problems (after we had a total disaster at Hertz, never ever rent with Hertz there). A friendly lady gave me the key after ho...

Civil Airfield Vancouver (CYVR)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:09:33 UTC

Million Air - Very friendly and helpful FBO - the lady at the reception desk was unbelievably nice. Good C.A.A. prices - GA friendly. Good choice when visiting Vancouver. Astonishingly GA-friendly bi...

Flightline First - Nice and FBO, CAA pricing. Recommended for New Orleans.

Civil Airfield Sedona Airport (KSEZ)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:09:01 UTC

You can‘t go wrong with this scenie airport. Arrived on an RNAV, landed with lots of tail and crosswind on the recommended runway, but still no big deal. Tietown provided and recommended. Super nice s...

B. Coleman Aviation - Super friendly lady at the reception. Nice covered welcome parking space so you don’t get wet when it rains. Everything went very smooth with our Citation Mustang, highly recomme...

Atlantic Aviation - Really nice service with a Twin Diamond. Gave them a call before arriving so everything was set up. Ramp agent with follow me car waited, helped me with the luggage and drove me ba...

Banyan Air Service - Friendly people, good coffee. Modern and spacious FBO. We had to wait due to lightning for refueling, but the wait was very comfortable. Recommended!

Nice large airport in the middle of nowhere. Steep but easy landing. Really nice and helpful staff. Jet A1 NO SELF SERVICE, they have to bring in the fuel truck - park on the ramp if you need A1. Atte...

Civil Airfield Taos Regional Airport (KSKX)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:06:02 UTC

Nice and relaxed FBO, but watch their opening times. Plan ahead to get an Uber or a Taxi if you arrive after their closing hours, there are not that many.

Civil Airfield Olive Branch Airport (KOLV)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:05:50 UTC

Memphis Executive Jet Center - Came with a Citation Mustang - super friendly and helpful people. They organized a rental car for me via National and parked it right beside my plane. Perfect airport to...

Civil Airfield Teterboro Airport (KTEB)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:05:18 UTC

Signature Aviation (formerly Meridian) - Excellent service with a Citation Mustang, CAA fuel, best option for GA. They also made a tire service possible during a two night stay. Recommended!

In the end, a good if not the best choice when visiting Las Vegas. It‘s not a shiny glitzy FBO and the fuel is also not the cheapest, but they‘re very efficient and friendly. Usually fees are waved wi...

Airport Venezia / Lido (LIPV)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:04:09 UTC

Great approach, late change from IFR to VFR with steep descent. AVGAS quite expensive, but gets you a parking spot on the concrete apron. Two days parking 65€. Be aware of the high trees on short fina...

Airport Rafael Hernandez (TJBQ)

by Thomas2025-08-22 16:04:07 UTC

Good service for a fuel stop from the Caribbean to Florida with a Citation Mustang Jet. I pre-announced our flight, refueling was right there and done during clearing US customs. No big facilities. Ma...

These people are super friendly. We had a 20’ turnaround after I sent them an email about our arrival before. Cheap fuel, efficient, good vibes. Complementary small snack and coffee section. Highly re...

Went there for a check ride - maybe one of the nicest FBO I‘ve ever been to. They have a cute fully stocked cafe with great coffee, breakfast burritos, etc. Very nice rooms as well. Seamless fuel serv...

Signature Aviation is overpriced, unorganized and annoying. They‘re sitting in a small container, everybody is busy, everything takes forever. Unfortunately you don‘t have much of a choice in Key West...

Civil Airfield Siena / Ampugnano (LIQS)

by Thomas2020-09-08 00:00:00 UTC

High fees, but worth it. Great location, outstanding service. Limited staff, but they go above and beyond. If you reserve a rental car (e.g., with AVIS; ask ops about options), it will be delivered di...

Civil Airfield Deggendorf (EDMW)

by Thomas2019-08-06 00:00:00 UTC

Nice, friendly club airfield with MOGAS and AVGAS available. Runway 500 m, quite short but entirely straightforward to approach. Open on weekends, otherwise PPR. SIXT will deliver the rental car direc...

Airport Sylt (EDXW)

by Thomas2019-06-23 00:00:00 UTC

Remarks: I flew a C172 to Sylt for an overnight and can only report good things. Entry completely hassle-free via the Sierra route, simple and clear radio comms, then straight to base and final for ru...
