What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Travelers, primarily general aviation pilots, generally express positive sentiment regarding their experiences at Ocean City Municipal Airport (KOXB/OCE). The airport is often lauded for its convenience and friendly staff, making it a favorable destination for short trips and getaways to the Maryland coast.

What Travelers Love

Friendly and Helpful Staff: Pilots consistently praise the FBO (Fixed-Base Operator) staff for being very friendly, helpful, and accommodating, even in situations like flat tires or engine issues.
Convenient Location: The airport is located close to the resort area, with the beach and boardwalk often within walking or short driving/biking distance, making it ideal for day trips or overnight stays.
Good Fuel Prices and Services: Many reviewers note the competitive fuel prices (100LL and Jet A) and the availability of 24-hour self-service fueling for 100LL. Aircraft maintenance services are also available through Ocean Aviation.
Clean and Adequate Facilities: The terminal building is described as clean, offering amenities like a pilot's lounge, conference room, and a pilot shop. There are plans for a new terminal building with an upper-level cafe in the future.
On-site Rental Cars and Transportation: Rental cars are available directly on the field, often with easy pickup processes. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are also accessible, especially during summer months.

Common Complaints

Early Closing Times (Off-Season): Some travelers have noted that the FBO and terminal building may close earlier in the off-season, sometimes before posted hours, which can be inconvenient.
Parking Fees: A daily parking fee (currently $15) is charged for aircraft that remain on the field, and this fee is generally not waived with fuel purchases.
Runway/Taxiway Renovations (Past): While likely completed, some older reviews mentioned the need for extra care due to ongoing runway/taxiway renovations.
Lack of On-site Restaurant: There is currently no on-site restaurant, though a food truck has been observed in the parking lot and a cafe is planned for the new terminal.

Ocean City Municipal Airport provides a generally positive and accommodating experience for general aviation pilots, particularly those looking for convenient access to the Ocean City resort area. Its strengths lie in its friendly service, convenient location, and available aviation services, though pilots should be mindful of parking fees and potential reduced FBO hours during the off-season.
