Second time through, and I still really enjoy this airport. Typically smaller city airports are…read morewhere it's at, versus say NYC or Atlanta, as they're naturally easier in and out. This one is easy, but also nice. Lots of light, easy to navigate terminals, decent restaurant choices, and cleaner than my house will ever be. While poppin', it was nice to see a big Starbucks as I had an early flight out and hadn't caffeinated yet. (Side note, give these folks a raise, they're busting it.) I got held up by TSA for a while because I had a candle in my bag but it was still much quicker than several others. It's also not too far from NuLu where I stayed, maybe 15 minutes by car or so. All the amenities you'd hope for with an airport, and overall it's a good one.

My husband and I had meetings that ran over and managed to make it to the airport 10 minutes before boarding started for our flight. There was no wait and TSA was friendly and expedient in getting us through security (thanks pre-check!). This airport is always clean and with small terminals, it is easy to navigate. Best local airport!

Super friendly and well staffed check-in counter…read more Overall, Southwest has taken a huge term for the worse this year. The assigned seats have resulted in much slower boarding, first checked bags were initially charged at $35, just raised to $45, and overall prices have been skyrocketing. What used to be a stand out airline seems to be aspiring for the infamy of the spirit airline experience.

Established in 1919, it is one of the longest continuously operating, general aviation airports in the United States. And it makes me feel like I'm going back in time whenever I visit. I envision gals with finger-wave hairdos, cloche hats and low-waisted skirts and fellas in fedoras and bow ties with slicked back hair -- suitcases in hand -- waiting for flights. Family and friends of the travelers gather in the airport's large lobby. Seriously, if anyone is in need of a period setting for a movie, Bowman Field definitely fits the part. If you get a chance to visit, take some time to look at the photos that line the lobby's walls. I was particularly impressed with the photo of Eleanor Roosevelt when she visited the airport. And from the lobby you can look out onto parked planes and runways. They practically meet the building. Bistro La Relais, which is in the main building as well, provides visitors with a great food option.

Great spaces abound in this airport - spaces you would never be able to utilize in a major, commercial airport.
