Stopped by for fuel enroute to Key West. We brought a picnic lunch and enjoyed the Tiki Hut and hospitality. Great service across the board. Good fuel prices as well. Be aware of numerous skydivers and local training landing against traffic.

I was flying back from the Keys this morning when strong storms across the peninsula forced me to put down and wait them out. The nearest place was X51, and the first FBO I saw was HEJC. What I thought would be an hour on the ground turned into nearly three, but it was turned into a great experience by these great folks. No sooner had I walked in the door than a bottle of water was put in my hand, and before long, my friends and I was eating complimentary hot dogs. I can't give enough credit for turning a troublesome weather delay into a great experience.

Alfredo, the owner and his pretty assistant Veronica, provided outstanding warm welcome and service, last week in a flight from CSE4 (Lachute, Quebec) to south Fla. We were even offered complimentary Hamburgers barbecued in front of us under a large Bamboo Hut right on the ramp.

I have recently made several trips to X51 and each time Alfredo and his crew makes it a better experience than the last one. The fuel prices are great and the service is even better. HEJC treats everyone like the most important customer.... I will continue to use HEJC.

Flew in twice on our way to and from Puerto Rico. Both times the service was excellent especially the price of Avgas compared to every other airport in the area.

Flew in August 13-16 for weekend of lobstering. Although we arrived at closing time Friday night, we were greeted by friendly staff and quickly got into our rental car. Also great service on departure; quick and easy. Parking/tie-down fees were waived with fuel purchase. Fuel prices are great for the area and HEJC/X51 remains an excellent gateway to the upper keys. FAA: how about an instrument approach? We will continue to return.

A great FBO experience. Besides the cleanliness and uniqueness of the FBO, the service was exceptional. The facility has many amenities that make flying easier. Outstanding service is always provided and the atmosphere in and around the FBO is very welcoming and cordial. They even provided me with free lunch that day! Looking forward to my next visit.

We stopped at this FBO from Ormond Beach in our flight to Key West to refuel the airplane because it was the cheapest fuel in many miles around, but in addition to that, we got an excellent attention by part of the personnel and president. It has comfortable facilities and very friendly people; prior to departure, we were invited to some hot dogs for the long trip! Conclusion: 10/10 We'll be back.

The guys over HEJC are truly the best FBO in Florida. Gotta love that Tiki hut, the fly in's and also the great service they provide even when they are busy with multiple aircraft. Like others have said must of the workers are pilots and they give you great tips of the local area. The service given you is like that of family. I highly recommend anyone flying into south Florida to come down and visit them. You won't be disappointed.

I landed at X51, and specifically HEJC, because of favorable comments on AirNav. Let me say that the comments do not even come close to portraying the AWESOME EXPERIENCE we had at HEJC. Alfredo Rocks! Not only do they have extremely low prices on fuel, but the personal attention to service, and great care they have for strangers is unbelievable. My only fuel stop (and just to stop and say hi and relax under the Tiki Hut) in South Florida will now be X51, and HEJC. Give these guys business - they deserve it, and you'll be thrilled with the experience.

I landed at X51 after dark and found HEJC to be the only FBO open. I was greeted by a very nice lineman who parked me and welcomed us to Homestead. What a welcome! I just stepped off the plane and Nelsy greeted us with cold refreshments! Jim also attended to us and I felt like I had arrived in Air Force One! The Tiki hut lowered my blood pressure by 20 points and I had a great stay overnight as they made all the arrangements on the spot. World class service and great fuel price. Easy in and out of Miami. I'll be back! Thanks ya'll!

These guys are the best, The FBO personnel are all outstanding. The FBO is clean, there is an outdoor tiki bar style where people meet and grill out all day on weekends, the fuel price was good and all the people running around the airport are really nice! Some of the folks there actually helped me repair my airplane. The airport is easy to access and the runways are very well maintained! an outstanding experience!

Flew in for the race, couldn't have asked for a better bunch to do business with. My passengers' cars were at the plane when we arrived and every little detail was met. Fuel prices were reasonable especially for southern Florida. While waiting for my passengers, they had burgers, hot dogs, cookies, all kinds of goodies to eat. All of the staff were very friendly and as helpful as you could possibly be. A great place to stop if your visiting the Homestead/Miami area, I highly recommend them. I know I will be a repeat customer.

Nov 7, 2009 we flew into X51 for the Homestead AFRB Air Show. We parked at Homestead Executive Jet Center and could not have been received any better than the management and staff greeted us. They provided courtesy transport to the Air Show. They offered coffee, donuts, water, hot dogs, etc. THEY HAVE TOLD US THEY HOST BREAKFASTS ON SOME SATURDAYS AND IT IS A FREE EVENT. Homestead Executive Jet Center is truly working to make your visit the most pleasant experience.

I recently needed to stop for fuel on my way down to Key West. I'm really glad I stopped and used the services of Homestead Executive Jet Center; they were nice, very helpful and also extremely professional. I will stop there from now on when going to Key West to top off my tanks. I would recommend this FBO to everyone. I had several special requests they were very happy to accommodate.

Flew in for weekend lobstering in Key Largo August 7-9. Jorge and Nelsy were extremely nice and helpful. Airport is well situated for upper Keys. Despite buying 30g of fuel, one night's tie-down wasn't waived as advertised. We also found the fueler had left a gas cap off! Although we had called in advance to notify of a Friday 7-8pm arrival, rental car, and 5pm Sunday departure, the airport closed at 3pm requiring multiple Saturday phone calls to arrange after-hours access. So the fee explanation became for "after-hours" despite the tip we provided on arrival Friday night. So, in summary, really nice folks, but watch out for limited/changing hours and additional fees. Watch those fuel caps; we were lucky we avoided contamination with PM rain.

I flew in to wait out some weather over the Keys. I called for fuel over the FBO Frequency and Rick had the fuel truck moving before I got into the chocks. When I went into the FBO to pay up, a really nice young lady whose name is Nelsy met me. Nelsy was very helpful and efficient. I hope that she is here when you stop by. Delightful! So, I am sitting in the pilots’ lounge watching TV, watching the Weather, and watching my airplane, which is right outside the window. Oh, and the air conditioning is really nice! It gets hot in Florida in July. This is a good airport and FBO to divert to. Easy to get in under the Class B as well.

Clean facility, computer access, Self Serve as advertised. We called ahead for a late check in. George was very friendly and gave us the codes to get in the pilot room and even left us a pot of coffee.... Thanks George you're a lifesaver. I would recommend this FBO.

Not only Alfredo & Jim make the aviation community feel at home, they also reach out to the local community. Where has this kind of service & dedication gone? Well I have found it at HEJC. Do yourself a favor and see it for yourself.

Made fuel stop at HEJC after hours on a Holiday weekend. The use of the Self-serve 100LL pump was easy and clean equipment. Pilot wx station and Rest rooms were clean and user friendly with special door code to get in after hours. Good fuel price in the MIA area, it is well out of the way of traffic and easy in and out. Great fuel stop and break area of longer flights in the south Florida area. Tanker fuel in and out of x51 to the Keys is a must. Fuel prices in the Keys are 2x what you pay at HEJC. Nice out door rest area with TV and comfortable seating. Fly safe and enjoy your next flight

I decided to stop at X51 rather than go to Marathon and I am very glad I did. Called ahead before I left Fernandina 55J. Landed and they had the rental car waiting for me at my tie down spot. The service is first class. The fuel prices are VERY good $2 less a gallon. Other than having a good view flying over the keys, I definitely will be stopping at Homestead Executive Jet again. They also honor AirBoss, which is a bonus! See ya next time.

Our arrival to Homestead was delayed by bad weather in the Northeast, causing us to arrive after 10pm. Alfredo and his daughter Nelsy both came back to open the FBO to park us and provide us with our rental car. I was thoroughly impressed with their dedication to customer service. Alfredo is a pilot himself with a beautiful Cessna, and loves to talk about airplanes. I will definitely use HEJC again when in the area.

Flew into Homestead yesterday with my dad for a bite to eat. As soon as I taxied in I was met by Adam in a golf cart which he led me to a parking spot. Once out of the plane he greeted us and gave us a ride to the FBO. He generously offered us a rental car as a courtesy so we could go grab a bite to eat. Fantastic! The girls behind the counter inside were very friendly and set us up with the car in no time. The best service I've ever experienced at an FBO. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

I can't tell you how nice Alfredo, the manager, was to us when we had a mechanical problem in our plane. He flew his own plane on his own dime to Tamiami to pick us up when we couldn't make it back. The people there are always friendly and always aim to please. Thanks again to HEJC!
