We were running from TSTM's and stopped. Called the FBO on Unicom and she arranged a hotel for us while we were still with Memphis approach. Landed and the line folks are great! Skip gave us a ride to the hotel and picked us up WAY earlier than anyone should be up. We arrived and the fuel truck was topping us off. $30.00 for hangar (worried about hail in the TSTM's that arrived at 0100!). Great place and great people!!!

Very nice staff and very accommodating. I was in a single and didn't even need much fuel, but the lady at the front desk went far out of her way to arrange courtesy transportation for both a passenger and myself. Great line people, great FBO, was very pleased.

There's nothing like southern hospitality. Stayed at one of the Casinos and couldn't find a ride back to the airport. For some reason this is the only place on the planet without taxis. Called the airport and they sent a driver for no charge. I think operations were slow though, so I wouldn't expect it without confirming before hand. Great service. Will stop again.

Flew in last September for an overnight stay in a casino. Fuel prices and service are good. Good staff willing to help. The casinos no longer have free shuttle. The cheapest cab is $25 each way...

Good gas prices, easy airport in and out, food available in the lobby. We were there two nights, but only paid tie-down fee of $5 for one night with gas purchase.

I stopped in on the way from Florida to Denver for an over-nighter. The folks there were extrememly helpful in getting me to my hotel. The receptionist is also a CFI at another nearby airport and she went out of her way to go there for me to pick up some charts I needed for my next leg. Highly recommended stop. Great folks. Nice facility.

Nice FBO and great fuel prices! The food counter doesn't open until 8 so I missed the opportunity to try the food even though the menu looked good (breakfast burrito!).

Nice, relatively new looking FBO. Park under a canopy. Restaurant just inside. Not a real sit down restaurant, but more deli style. They have burgers, bbq, and Boar's head sandwiches. Linemen and Deli people real friendly. I've heard they have free shuttles to/from the casinos, but didn't try it out.

Very nice FBO and good fuel prices. Flew in while ferrying my recently purchased plane from Houston up to Delaware. Stopped in for the evening with no reservations. The young lady working was very helpful in getting us a room reservation at Harrah's Casino for only $40 for the night. After we landed a charter jet landed with over 100 people going over to Harrah's as well. We were able to hitch a ride with them over to the casino. In the morning we got a ride back to the airport from Brenda of Kings' Way Travel (901) 282-7004. The casino is about a 15-20 minute ride from the airport but very nice/economical place to stay. Would highly recommend stopping in Tunica if it were on your route!

Stopped here overnight with my homebuilt Bearhawk airplane on my way up to Oshkosh '09. I had a mechanical issue (broken tailwheel fork) and Skip Wertz (Operations Manager) went out of his way to get me in touch with the guy who could help me fix it (John Carson). Skip even towed my airplane down to John's hangar, stood by while the repairs were made, and then drove me into town to the casino where I stayed. I had left my airplane tied down outside and during the night a T-storm came through. Skip took it upon himself to have my airplane and others pushed inside the hangar for protection. All I can say is AWESOME service. None better that I have ever seen. The FBO is also a top notch, modern facility with an excellent deli and pilot room. 1st class all the way! Thank you Skip for all you did for me!

Beautiful FBO, well staffed. Linemen accord red-carpet treatment upon arrival. Cruiser's Deli is just inside the FBO. Great lunch-stop; counter-service. I love the Reuben (see other comment on this site).

I agree with the other writers. The linemen make this place nice. Super guys with great attitudes. I doubt that I got the same treatment that the MD80 crew got, but I didn't buy that much fuel either! It would be nice to have a loaner car for lunch, but oh well.

Stopped in Saturday evening for a trip to the casinos. Lineman was glad to give us a ride. Was told by the casino (Sam's Town: 800-456-0711) to call them next time and they would gladly arrange transportation to/from the a/p. At Sam's Town, ask for the shift mgr (Ron).
