This is my home airport, small and local. I love how close and convenient it is. The bathrooms ..... Nov, 2022, the bathroom in the upper level newer addition has been upgraded! So much better! I just don't know if the other, older bathrooms have been done too. I increased my number of Stars for that reason. The carpets in the main concourse are worn and sad.

Cons: TSA is very inconsistent. Taking the 530 am flight can be painful. -- Realize the ticketing will open about 345 am. -- TSA is not open until 4 -- Consider those two points when arriving.
