Chrissy and the line guys did an outstanding job once again. I have been here as a military pilot and recreationally and each time service has been outstanding. For a good meal ask for the crew car and go to Lulu's (Jimmy Buffet's sister's restaurant). It is about 2 miles away and has a great atmosphere and great food.

Today we flew an Eclipse into JKA and were met by three linemen - maybe it was two, but they were as quick as three. Called ahead on the AIRINC and they had the rental car pulled up before we opened the door. The service was extremely fast both on the ramp and inside their fine facility. Great job!

My wife and I use JKA as a weekend getaway. It's about an hour flight from my home base. As usual, the service this weekend was 120%. The linemen are always waiting for me to pull up, they chock the plane, they have the rental car out to the plane wanting to help unload the luggage, fuel the plane and take care of all the needs one has when arriving. The staff inside the terminal are very helpful and great to work with. My wife rented a car through Hertz and it smelled like cigarette smoke. One of the girls at the desk got on the phone with them and had a replacement in just a few minutes. Thanks!

We flew in on March 3, 2012 as part of a flight of three aircraft, 10 adults total, all going to Lulu's for lunch. The line service was terrific and Gulf Air offered to take us and pick us up as a group on their party bus. The manager who drove us to the restaurant refused a tip! We've been to numerous FBO's around the country and Gulf Air always ranks at the top of our list.

We love flying into this airport! EVERYBODY on the staff, including the linemen, is super friendly and helpful. The facilities are excellent and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The first time we flew in we had engine trouble when we tried to take off again. It was late in the evening and the mechanic was already home. They offered to call him and said that he wouldn't mind coming back at all. But the pilot who owns Lucky Dog Aviation, Rod Kellogg, came out and helped get the engine going again and we took off. He even radioed us to make sure everything was okay after we took off. Those kind of services make us want to go back. Thanks for the professional courtesy!

Great FBO. Line crew had the aircraft tied down, the fuel truck in front of the plane, and a golf cart ready for us to use to get our gear off the line before we even finished unloading our little 172. Nothing like kicking back a little in Jack's Aces before heading out again. Definitely will be back.

Flew in with friends and they met me at the airplane. One airplane had an alternator problem and they towed it in the hangar and let me change it out for my buddy (I'm an A&P). Even borrowed a multimeter for me to troubleshoot the problem. Pat is top drawer and this is a clean and efficient operation with friendly staff. Good facilities and plenty of free drinks. There are even free lunches across the way. Unheard of!

When we left I drove out to the plane to store our bags, I forgot two shopping bags in the back seat of the rental. My Bride asked about the bags at our second stop 6 hours north. I made a call, the folks at Gulf air checked the rental and shipped our packages home FedEx. THANKS!! You saved me!

Is there a rating that goes beyond Excellent? If you want know how an FBO should treat private pilots, you need to stop at Jack Edwards and visit Gulf Air. I have to call out Shawanda Henderson, their Customer Service Manager. She is the best! I'm already looking for an excuse to visit again. Thanks for taking such great care of me and my fellow Baby Beech pilots.

We attended the Beech Aero Club Fest 2012 last weekend and Gulf Air Center was our host FBO. We were extremely pleased with every phase of their operation. Everyone was courteous, efficient, and wanted to ensure our stay was the best experience possible. Per their mission statement, they truly are ambassadors for not only the airport, but also the entire region of Gulf Shores. I would like to especially recognize Customer Service Manager Shawda, Customer Service Rep Lindsey, and General Manager Pat for their outstanding service and commitment to general aviation.

I flew our Cheyenne III in to JKA about 10 min before the published closing time and parked across the ramp @ Coastal Aircraft Services for scheduled maintenance. Roman (sorry if misspelled) had a line service guy in a golf cart waiting to take me to the FBO where my discounted hotel info was waiting along with my rental car, which was pulled up under the awning. I always get this kind of service @ GAC. All other FBOs should send their personnel here for training. Awesome!

I have been using Gulf Air for many years on my beach visits. Flew in Sun, 7/29 and departed Sun, 8/5 in an F33A Bonanza. Excellent facility, exceptionally helpful front desk and management. I had one small issue with line service and hangar, but the front desk staff and management fully addressed my concern and I appreciated their responsiveness. Additionally, we left an item in the Hertz rental car -- Hertz was not helpful, but the staff at Gulf Air sent an overnight FedEx package (at my expense, as I requested) to my home in the Dallas area. They really went above and beyond the call of duty with a fresh, positive, and helpful attitude. I will definitely be back, and look forward to my return.

Enroute from KDTS to back home, we couldn't help but stop in at our favorite $100-hamburger and GAC took excellent care of us as always! Due to short hops in our little C152 we couldn't take but a few gals fuel, but they treated us as if we were taking a hundred & loaned us the sporty red Mustang that my lil girl loves, helped us get to/from LuLu's quickly. Always such a pleasure to see you folks, y'all always make us feel at home :) :)

Thank you Gulf Air Center you made our night!

Throughout my many years of flying Jack Edwards Airport has to be one of the most pilot friendly airports I have ever flown into. The line staff is exceptional and always on the spot and the desk ladies are the tops, they always greet you with a smile and take care of your every request very expeditiously. If you've never gone to KJKA... Put it on your list of "must stops"!! Keep up the great work!!

Overall a great experience! Whenever traveling to the Gulf Shores / Orange Beach area I will be sure to use Gulf Air Center again!

My wife and I flew in for Memorial Day weekend. Arrived on Friday and was promptly marshaled to a parking spot. Two business jets arrived about the same time and I was parked between them, so they got the attention and the golf carts. I would have done the same thing. Service at the desk inside was pleasant and efficient. When I arrived at the airport for departure on Monday, the plane was fueled and ready. Tie-down was $12 per night, but they waived one night because of my relatively small fuel purchase. They apologized for not being able to tow my plane up to the terminal because of the holiday rush, but they did drive us down the ramp to the plane. Overall it was a good experience.

Came in in N62TC this Memorial Day weekend. The place was busy, with about 7 in the pattern and the ramp nearly full. We decided to go at the last minute and called about 2 hours before arrival. They found a car for us, hangar space and everything was speedy despite the pace on the ramp. The same for the departure today, lots going on, but the plane was out at the ramp and the line guys all over us to help out. I may still try the other guys due to cheap fuel but Gulf Air did a great job for me and my family.

Made a Hertz reservation with FBO. She couldn’t give me a rate. When I arrived, the girl gave me a Hertz contract to sign W/O any numbers on it. I asked for the rate and she said she didn’t know. I asked how am I supposed to sign a contract w/o numbers on it. She said she didn’t know and that the SUV was usually about $100/day. I marked a max charge on the contract of $150 (to inc. Taxes/misc) and signed.. Ridiculous but I was in a hurry. Returned 4 hours later, they still didn’t have a rate. I asked that my plane be pulled up. She said they couldn’t, the linemen were busy. I replied that service had gone down there lately. She grinned ear-to-ear and said "Sorry"! Clearly she didn't care. We walked out to the plane, down and across the ramp. Got my cc bill today..$202 for 4 hours rental. I called Hertz and they reduced the bill and said don't call that FBO anymore to make reservations, use the 800-number. The previous poster also seemed to have a rental problem at this FBO. You decide for yourself.

Something has changed. We arrived on Friday 22 April, and wanted to go to a local restaurant for an early supper. We knew the wait there was going to be more than an hour so decided to rent a Hertz car for a few hours and, at $39.95 + tax thought it would be reasonable to leave the crew cars for others arriving later. The bill was $54.89! Be warned - maybe tax is 37% and maybe it isn't. (I don't think that the PA28 was flavor of the day either with King Airs around at the same time).Response from Ricky Hudson, General Manager, Gulf Air Center
To all Gulf Air Center customers, I want to say Thank You. I appreciate your business and your comments both good and bad. Good comments mean that we are doing our job right and the negative comments say we have room to improve. It disappoints me when I find out that an action initiated by Gulf Air Center has caused someone to have a bad experience. In regards to the two recent comments, I have now posted the Hertz rates that show the final cost for a daily rental with all taxes and fees included. Gulf Air Center has worked extremely hard to improve our customer service and to go the extra mile for pilots, crews and passengers. We have upgraded our FBO facilities for your comfort and we offer free food 7 days a week to Pilots and Crews at our "Jack's Aces" Pilot and Crew Hangout. Gulf Air Center strives to make your experience at Gulf Shores a great one no matter what you are flying. Please accept my apology and I look forward to serving you in the future.

We flew into Jack Edwards Airport today to go into Gulf Shores and have some lunch on the beach. The service was great right from the start. A marshaller was waiting for us in parking and asked if we needed assistance right away. We borrowed a crew car from Gulf Air Center, which was a really nice brand new Ford Mustang, with no problems. They have Hertz rental cars available too if you need a car for longer than about an hour. Overall we had a great experience and this is a really nice airport. We will definitely be back...Thanks!

What a pleasure it was to fly out of Jack Edwards Airport with amazing service from the Gulf Air Center. I was there to pick up my Diamond aircraft after my son hangared it there for the summer. The FBO staff and instructors were so polite and professional. They made sure the aircraft was ready upon my arrival and flew with me to get familiar with the airport, surroundings and to get reacquainted with my aircraft prior to my return to Houston. Now where else can you get service like that? I would highly recommend this airport, FBO and instructor, Rod. KJKA is very well maintained, beautiful ocean scenery with great service. Thank you again for your hospitality.

Been far too long since our previous visit (s), and just a quick impromptu stop this past weekend for LuLu's dinner while passing by on our way back home from Disneyworld. But this place & folks are just as fantastic as always...We love it! Jack's gave my lil girl a t-shirt that she got a kick out of & can't wait to come back and check them out further when we're not in a rush. Thanks a bunch, guys...And I promise that it won't be so long again before our favorite $100 hamburger with y'all!

Stopped in for fuel and lunch and we were treated wonderfully. Crew car (a yellow Camaro!) was available for us to take to the restaurant and we spend a few minutes on the beach as well. The only downside is that we weren't able to stay longer- Gulf Shores looks like a great place with an FBO to match.

She advised they were cooking sausages & had pancakes so I had breakfast on the spot. Bought some fuel since they do not have ramp fees. Nice folks and some pretty faces. Felt more like the "Good ole days".

It didn't take long for the new FBO to raise all the prices. Prices were good and reasonable until they eliminated the competition. Great service and staff though. Manager did not return my phone call to discuss hangers. Monthly car parking and fuel is really high - ridiculous for this type of GA airport. Very disappointed. Was a regular and hoped things had changed here. Response from Kel Jones - General Manager - Gulf Air Center, Inc.
Mr. Suggs, I regret that we have seen Crude Oil go up from $44 per barrel to $84 per barrel since we opened last year. Yes, our retail fuel prices have increased 40% over the same period, but that is much less than the underlying commodity increase of 90%. We committed to be competitive to our customers in fuel price in the surrounding area. That commitment has not changed. We are a full service location, self-serve fuel is not available as an option at KJKA and it will always be difficult to compete with on price. Gulf Air Center eliminated ramp fees at the airport too. We believed our customers would support this decision and they have by their fuel purchase decisions. I appreciate the compliment to our team; they try their best to deliver excellent service every day. I personally apologize for not returning your call. I do not know how that slipped through. I will endeavor to find your number and contact you directly. Sincerely,
|

Our longtime favorite $100 hamburger but first stop at KJKA since Gulf Air Center, same impeccable and impressive facility & service that we have come to expect & appreciate! Busy Saturday so crew car was already gone but it's a short walk to LuLu's and we met up with friends there and toured the Nina & Pinta which were docked for the weekend...Fun stuff! Engine issues on run-up to return home, and Ashley was of immense assistance in obtaining a mechanic on a late Saturday afternoon (Bryant is awesome & responsive, and still helping us out as it turned out to be a major issue). And when it became apparent that we'd have to leave the plane there she quickly got us a 1-way rental to get us back home (New Orleans) and even fussed at Enterprise to get us the best rate! Thanks a BUNCH Ashley!!

After lunch I gave them a call and someone came and picked us up and brought us back to the airport. When we returned my plane was fueled as requested and the bill was ready. What more can you ask for? P.S. If you haven't been to Lulu's you need to go!! This was my first time and won't be my last.

Great FBO!!! Flew in around sunset in my R-44 helicopter the evening of Friday 16 October on my way back to FL from CA. Staff was immediately available to direct me to a secure parking spot away from fixed-wing parking. The next morning when I arrived back at Gulf Air Center the helicopter was fueled and ready to go. Staff took the time to inform me about getting a clearance for a shoreline transition into FL rather than following I-10. Sweet!!! Ask me if I was disappointed flying over the beautiful coast rather than the highway...Not! Can't wait to go back and visit.

When you pull into the ramp at JKA be prepared to be wowed by the yellow and red shirted linemen at each FBO. The last night I came in it was raining and the red shirts almost got me by wearing a yellow rain coat. I spotted the gentleman from GAC who guided me in to a stop right in front of the open hangar doors. He then proceeded to tow me in the hangar so I wouldn't have to get wet exiting the aircraft. Now THAT'S service! After that they gave me a ride to the hotel so I wouldn't have the added expense of a rental car. My understanding is these folks usually have the best fuel price as well. This is definitely our preferred FBO at JKA.

I have now visited all three FBO's at JKA. I would say Gulf Air Center has been the best experience so far. Competition is now well alive at JKA, and Gulf Air will be my port of call in the future.

The folks at Gulf Air Center are first class and provide first class service. Tyler on the line and Ashley at the desk were on the spot with everything we needed. From our rental car waiting and cooling at our plane to the best fuel prices and brand new facilities, you can't go wrong with GAC. Our Bonanza was treated like a Lear! We'll be back and will use GAC.

Dannie and the crew are doing an outstanding job. They brought the car out to the plane, helped us load up, and even took us to our condo.

Flew in for lunch at LuLu's. Get new FBO! Look for the second set of line personnel waving you into the ramp -- the yellow shirts. Best fuel prices in the area! I'll be back. Stinson N8656K

I have been flying to JKA for a long time. Gulf Air Center has defiantly won me over. Great people, service with a smile, not to mention great fuel prices! This is what a FBO is supposed to be. Great customer service doesn’t cost anything, and this is one of the few FBO`s that has figured this out. Thanks to all the good people at GAC for taking care of me!

Professional & courteous staff. Dannie, Ashley, Michael and Bar are friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. Fuel prices are excellent as well as the accommodations. I would recommend giving these guys and gals a call if you are visiting the Gulf Shores area.

My first visit and WOW! These guys really know how to run an FBO. I've been flying for 29 years and this is the best I've ever experienced. The facility is great, the line guys are knowledgeable and friendly, and the owners go out of their way to make even the single engine guys like me feel really welcome. What is even better is that they have the most competitive fuel pricing in the area. I will be back!

Very good service, be sure to look for the yellow shirts. I almost went for the red shirt guy; they try to get your attention. Will be back soon.

Wow! If you wanted to be treated like you flew into JKA in a Jet Gulfstream needing 200 gals of fuel...Go to Gulf Air. Royal treatment! They had my rental car standing by and Red Carpet treatment the whole nine yards. No ramp fees and a good price on 100LL. Great bunch of people. I shall return!

$3.49 a gallon!! I haven't seen prices that good in over 18 months. Great people to deal with. Needed a battery "boost" to get going, everyone at the facility was happy to help me out. I'll be back. Excellent! Thanks to all at GAC.

What a treat. Someone wants and appreciates our business. Gulf Air opened and in less than a three weeks, opened a great pilot lounge with snacks, shower, flight planning, smiles, did I forget ALL FREE, what a concept and prices we have only heard of in the Southeast. They have an A&P on staff, an A&I on call. When you get there let the Yellow shirts park you or IF MONEY IS NO OBJECT LET THE RED SHIRTS SPOT YOUR PLANE.

This was a great stop. They made reservations for me for my rental car and were very friendly when we arrived. There can be some confusion when finding them because the other FBO will do everything they can to get your attention. Look for the lineman in the yellow shirts. The other place is much higher on fuel. Nice FBO with friendly people and great fuel. Does not get any better than this place. Thanks to Dannie and the rest of the crew for the great service.
