What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Accomack County Airport (KMFV/MFV) in Melfa, US, primarily serves general aviation and does not host commercial airline flights. Therefore, typical traveler reviews for commercial passengers regarding terminal facilities, security wait times, and customs/immigration are not applicable. Reviews and experiences largely come from pilots and those utilizing the Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) services, who generally express a positive sentiment towards the airport's operations and amenities for private aircraft.

What Travelers Love (General Aviation Focus):

  • Friendly and Helpful Staff: Pilots frequently highlight the FBO staff as being very accommodating and assisting with fueling, credit card processing, and aircraft movement.
  • Modern Terminal Building and Pilot Facilities: The airport features a modern terminal building with amenities such as internet and wireless access, a pilot's lounge, and a weather and flight briefing room. After-hours access to restrooms, weather, and flight-planning facilities has also been recently added for pilots.
  • Convenient Fuel Services: Both 100LL and Jet A fuel are available, with self-serve fueling available 24 hours a day. Fuel prices are often considered competitive.
  • Courtesy Car Availability: A courtesy car is available for pilots to use for short trips to local restaurants and businesses, though it's on a first-come, first-served basis and typically limited to a few hours.
  • Well-Maintained Runway: The 5,000-foot asphalt runway (03/21) is described as being in excellent condition.
Common Complaints
  • No On-site Rental Cars: While a courtesy car is available, there are no commercial car rental services directly on-site. Pilots needing a vehicle for longer periods must arrange with local companies for drop-off and pick-up.
  • Limited Hangar Space: T-hangars are available by lease only, and there is often a waiting list. Overnight hangar space is not available.
  • Deer in the Vicinity: Pilots are advised that deer are present on and in the vicinity of the airport, which can be a safety concern.

Overall, Accomack County Airport is highly regarded by general aviation users for its modern facilities, helpful staff, and convenient services, particularly for pilots needing to refuel or a brief stopover. The absence of commercial flights means a different operational experience, with strengths lying in personalized FBO services rather than typical passenger amenities or security processes. Planned projects, including runway rehabilitation and apron expansion, indicate ongoing commitment to improving the airport's infrastructure.
