    Small airport with a friendly atmosphere. Visit the restaurant upstairs and watch planes from the deck.

    Went to the cafe for a quick lunch and it was good. Out of the way place but convenient. They serve beer and wine, Yippie.

    Great people and nice facilities. The Cafe on the field is also good. I enjoy landing at this facility when I fly to Redding to see family.

    This is the tiniest, most back-woods style airport I have ever seen. I'm glad it allows me to see…read moremy parents, who live in the sticks, but how do airline agents not know what a KTN is? Why are their systems so old, they can't even attach my TSA Pre-check or GOES ID numbers to my ticket? Why is there NEVER anyone at the Hertz counter and it takes 30 minutes to help one person? Why doesn't security know that a laptop and notebook are essentially the same thing and a TABLET IS NOT A NOTEBOOK? Ugh. But, you only have to arrive about 20 minutes before your scheduled flight, so for a perpetually-running-late person like myself, it makes it worth it to put up with minor frustrations... most of the time. I elected to fly into Sacramento and drive to Chico for the next few weekends. I just wasn't in the mood to hear, "We don't do that here" over and over again.

    God help you if you need to be somewhere and are relying on this airport to get you there. San…read moreFrancisco is notorious for delaying or cancelling fights, and the first to go are the regional planes. Of the dozen times I've used this airport, over half the flights have been delayed or cancelled. At this point, I only fly out of Chico as some form of penance. There has been much discussion in Chico regarding the financial drain the airport is on the community and why its patronage is continuing to decline. Not getting to your destination on time is the only reason no one uses this airport. Chico would be wise to add either a LAX or DEN route. Until then, your best option is to drive to Sacramento. Hopefully things improve, but I'm not holding my breath.
