If you are heading down to the Keys here are some recommendations. Marathon Airport GA FBO has been my base for years. Recently there has been a change in their philosophy and they are no longer GA friendly. So heading to Key West at Signature or Marathon GA FBO is about a push now a days. Call before you go to verify their rates and ramp availability. I would recommend topping off at Naples Airport self service (currently the lowest in the area), then flying to either Key West or Marathon. At either KEYW or KMTH FBO’s they charge 20 dollars plus 2.50 security fee. 10 gallons of gas waives the 20 dollar ramp fee. Fuel prices are high and they are very proud of it. There is no place in the lower 48 like the Keys and your missing out on life if you don’t visit. It’s a great place to get the tropical experience on without the hassle of international travel. Just be prepared to pay FBO costs equal to any major popular airport. Also, ramp line workers and staff are very transient right now so I would be at your plane when fueling, etc.
