FAA rules in favor of Key West International Airport on three of four counts after AOPA complaint. Key West International Airport
Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • The FAA largely ruled in favor of Key West International Airport and its sole FBO, rejecting AOPA's complaint regarding pricing practices and control of transient parking.
  • The FAA did find Key West Airport non-compliant for failing to provide an area for aircraft owners to service their own airplanes.
  • This decision is part of ongoing AOPA efforts to address pricing and access issues at single-FBO airports, with similar complaints against Asheville and Waukegan having different outcomes.

The FAA recently ruled in favor of Key West International Airport after conducting a review of the field’s only FBO in response to a complaint filed last year by AOPA about pricing practices and ramp access at KEYW.
