Victoria
June 13, 2026Was quoted a $200 nightly fee, along with other charges, and that was supposedly the "discounted" rate for an afternoon gallon fuel purchase. This airport needs some competition. I decided not to fly into it because of that. I would have purchased over 100 gallons of fuel... first time I've ever nit flown somewhere due to airport fees. I've flown throughout the US, Camada and the Bahamas, and this may be the worst fee example I've seen.

November 28, 2025Jet Aviation charges a $30 ramp fee and a $7 security fee for a drop off with my Bonanza. Fuel is $3 per gallon more than my home airport so purchasing 10 gallons to waive the fee is a wash.
