July 26, 2025Stopped in on way from Louisiana to Maine 2 nights, they waived the "whopping " $8.00 handling charge, and they didn't handle anything!! I taxied around looking for tiedowns in my 180, then charged me $66.00 a night for the privilege of parking with them 2 nights down at the flight school tied myself down! Horseshit !!

July 18, 2025I stopped here about a month ago, late arrival. Erica was the attendant at Signature, she was super fine, she set me up with a hotel even though it was so late and a shuttle service. This woman is amazing. Will always choose to return here.
