    Despite a lot of rude comments toward other people and the company I'm glad the airport got us…read morehome, yes I got frustrated at one point then found prayer an repentance an peace at the end. it was very late an even if some people were grumpy or over prideful even in the reviews I'm going to say thank the good Lord they eventually got us home and to all you out there looking down at everyone check your pride there is no good kind of pride and Judge not less be judged upon the same measure you use toward others because you cant love the Lord if you don't love your neighbor but I pray for those that were so cold to anyone that your hearts be soften an approach others in kindness in Jesus name Amen. Also thank you Ohare for getting us home safe Bless you and your staff.

    Just flew through Omaha again and it reminded me why we actually enjoy using this airport. While…read morethere is currently some construction going on, it still manages to feel small, efficient, and easy to navigate compared to many larger airports. Getting in and out is straightforward, parking is convenient, and the shuttle service to the terminal is quick and painless. We never feel like we need to arrive ridiculously early just to survive the experience. Inside the terminal there are enough food and drink options to grab a snack, relax for a bit, or enjoy the obligatory pre-flight cocktail before boarding. Seating areas are comfortable and the overall atmosphere feels much less chaotic than many major hubs. TSA has consistently been friendly during our trips, and security lines move surprisingly fast, which definitely helps take some of the stress out of traveling. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is mainly because the airport is showing its age in certain areas and the ongoing construction can make parts of the experience feel a little less polished right now. That said, the convenience factor is hard to beat. For travelers in the Omaha area, this is one of those airports that simply gets the job done without turning travel day into a headache. We fly through here often and will gladly continue to do so.

    'A' IS FOR AIRSTRIP…read more This adorable airport does an admirable job of attracting young aviators. Clow International Airport was one of the biggest 'X'-factors I considered when moving to the area back in 2020, but not for the reasons you might think. I love planes, and my hope was that one day I'd have kids who would also be fascinated by aviation. Wouldn't you know it, our 4yo thinks planes are the coolest and I'm sure our 1yo someday will, too. On Google Maps, this place is listed as Chicago Bolingbrook International Airport, which is both stupid and wrong. Guess I have to summon my verified Google Reviewer ninja skills and fix that discrepancy. Oliver Clow (the airport's founder) would be mortified to see his own name dropped from this beloved airport! #justice4clow The noise pollution isn't bad at all, especially when compared to the deafening jumbo jets flying over towns like Franklin Park and Des Plaines on their approach to O'Hare Int'l. The air traffic coming through Clow is mostly private pilots, students, and light commuter aircraft (no 747's). Their on-site restaurant - Charlie's - is named after Chuck Yeager and serves the most reasonably-priced breakfast around. When the weather's nice, scores of planes takeoff and land on a given day, so if you're lucky enough to get a window seat, you'll be treated to an airshow with your meal. Clow hosts the annual Cavalcade of Planes, an event that attracts a huge crowd and features the opportunity to go up in a variety of different aircraft for an upcharge. We've gone every year and while we usually pay for admission, there's space north by the Meijer parking lot where you can watch in a lawnchair (and BYOB) for no charge. * TL;DR * This general aviation facility in the western suburbs gets an A+ from me and the kids. You can learn about planes from history in the free aviation museum, take flying lessons, or enjoy a cheap meal at Charlie's. I've seen everything from small Cessnas and WW2 fighter planes to helicopters, with a few gliders and ultralights mixed in here. The runway is only a couple blocks from our house, which is awesome. Clow is like a friendly neighbor everyone wishes they had. My family and I adore everything about this airstrip. Ten stars!

    Here are a couple of additions to Clow's collection, what a fun place to visit, first off stop at…read moreCharlie's for a great lunch and then stroll down past the hangers to the museum you will not be disappointed, your kids will really enjoy the day.

    The noise from the planes flying so low we've seen 2 planes al most collide also 2 emergency…read morelandings in the last 2 months. We see planes late at night that are super loud 1 looked real close to the neighbor roof. This place is not safe very young people running this airport out of the Joliet Park District. Residents are always scared fear of anither accident. We say our prayers at night before sleeping. Joliet started a chartered service without notifying the residents. A real stress disorder forming. This place looks unsafe the city only worried about revenue not the tax payers. File your complaints online with the FAA.

    Reason #N515AG why my grandfather is radder than yours:…read more My grandfather is passionate about one thing above most anything else... flying. Weather its on ground on a motorcycle or the way he prefers- up in the air, he loves it all. My childhood was filled with many days of going flying in my grandfather's cessna parked right here at the Joliet Airfield for over 2 decades. Did you know that every airplane in North America starts with the letter N in its name? My grandfather was told he could choose the number for his plane. His favorite number is 5 but 555 was taken so he chose 515. Years later he would come to own a house with that same number but that's another story. Instead how about something inspirational and a bit cheesy? When all of us grandkids were born my grandfather wrote our names on the tail of his airplane. He would point them out to all of his airport friends. He was so proud. I've been riding in airplanes almost as long as I have been in cars. My grandfather would take us flying to random airfields to have lunch. Nothing super fancy mind you but how many kids have grandparents that say "hey let's fly to x city and have a grilled cheese sandwich." I feel so fortunate to be the granddaughter of a self proclaimed "Flyboy." Flash forward through my childhood and my grandfather is starting to get old. He is involved in an accident where his plane was wrapped around a tree. He walked away with nothing but bruises. Never to fly again? Yeah right. Not grandpa. He would point to a trunk that had the only salvageable portion of the plane and say "You see that? That's my plane. I'm going to put that in another one and I'm going to fly it again. Just watch." Sure you are Pappy. Suuuure. And you know what? He did. In the pictures accompaning this review you can see for yourself. My grandfather did it. The plane in the pictures looks identical to the one he crashed minus our names on the tail. He's still flying it. If there's anyone that is an example of what passion is, its my grandfather. Still alive. Still living his dream up in the sky. Now I have to hurry up and get my pilots license too so I can fly right along with him. But for now the checklist duty will have to do.
