March 31, 2024My son and I were headed to the beach but landed here to deal with a small canopy issue. Extremely modest but very neat setup where, as Evan says, keys to the pilot lounge and the club car are in the lockbox. My 8 year old's day was made when he found ice pops in the freezer! We decided to go into town for lunch and enjoyed touring a town we never would have otherwise stopped at.....thank you Airport Authority for your thoughtfulness.
