Great counter service, friendly counter agents HOWEVER if you have metal in your body the TSA…read morecheckpoint is not a great experience. They only utilize a walk through metal detector and they do an overall body and crevice pat down. Should have accepted the privacy room but figured it would be the "normal" TSA body swipe. All walk through traffic stops because only one TSA agent conducts the pat down so you have an audience. Felt like I needed a drink and smoke and at least a first name of the agent after this experience.

Teeny tiny regional airports are interesting. ESC is probably the smallest airport that I've been…read moreto (other than strictly general aviation FBOs). Being a regular at airports, I am used to being at airports 1-2 hours prior to departure. But that is not necessary in Escanaba. I didn't realize that the rental car return desk would be unmanned, and that the security checkpoint doesn't open until 40 minutes before departure. Had I realized that I would be sitting around for an hour before I could go through security, I would have use used that hour to find a last pretty lakeside spot to enjoy on my UP adventure. But rental car keys were turned into the lockbox, and nothing was in walking distance of the airport, so I waited. Props to the airport for good wifi and clean bathrooms. There are no restaurants or snack bars, just vending machines. Delta staff was friendly (they're the only airline at the airport). It seemed like all the people chatting at the gate were locals, and seemed happy to run into each other on their way to wherever the connection to Detroit took them. My only gripe was with the TSA agents. There is no TSA Precheck, and they were gruff sticklers on the new "guideline" to remove all snacks from your bag. Even after pulling out all my goodies, they still flagged a bar in the depths of my suitcase. But boarding the CRJ took about 5 minutes, and we took off before scheduled departure time...no runway traffic at this airport!

They're very thorough with their passenger inspections, so you want to get there with plenty of time to spare. Parking is quite easy and is only seven bucks per day if you overnight your car. If you arrive to pick up a passenger or to collect a car, do know that you have four hours of complementary parking on any entry. After the fourth hour, it becomes a full day charge which is still good it only seven dollars per day really nice and friendly associates. Well run and organized team (Delta Connections). Really friendly gate agent on departure, offering personalized service and a fond farewell. A++
