I find I'm the minority in my appreciation for smaller airports, but I love everything about the Plattsburgh airport. Only two carriers currently offer services out of this airport: Allegiant and Contour, and there are very few flights a day. Despite that, the airport is large, spacious, and aesthetically pleasing with tons of natural light! It's incredibly clean. There is ample parking and car return is steps from the door--no shuttles or long treks required here. Downstairs includes ticket counters, a few vending machines, car rental counters, baggage pick up. Zero wait at any of these (I got here only an hour before my flight and it looked deserted!). Upstairs includes TSA, which was a breeze to get through (again, no one in front of me), four gates, ample seating, lactation room, ATM, very small shop area, restrooms, a few more vending machines and, to my pleasant surprise, a restaurant! Yes, a restaurant and bar in this tiny airport, named The Rendezvous. I grabbed a lavender white chocolate mocha and a bag of Cheez-it, and it was 8.40 total--so comparable to traditional prices. All of that, but here's the best part imo: EVERY single person I encountered from the ticket agent, Janet, to TSA agents to airport police to the barista at the restaurant, Shawn, greeted me warmly and was kind throughout my interactions with them! Such a wonderful change of pace from other airports! If you love a large airport with frequent flights and all the perks of that (I.e., amenities), this won't be an enjoyable airport for you. But if you, like me, want to get in and out with as much ease and as little stress as possible, this is a great, highly underrated gem of an airport that truly deserved more patrons!

This airport is easy to get in and out of. The rental car desk is downstairs by baggage claim. The rental cars are a five minute walk outside. Not sure how that walk would be in the winter! There are no restaurants or shops. There is a concession stand with sodas, water, chips, Candy and packages sandwiches. This airport is built on a former military base. Downtown Plattsburgh is five minutes away. The airport only gets a few flights a day. There are chargers everywhere!

Island Taxi - Your driver Brooke

Brooke and Liz are great! Our driver cancelled our ride to the airport an hour before planned and…read morewe were able to call Liz early in the morning and get Brooke to drive us all within an hour. Highly recommend calling if you ever need a ride.

Sadly, I must report that my experience with Island Taxi was horrifying. I had expected the owner…read moreof the service, who I understood was a female, to drive me in what I understood was a Continental. I had ordered up the taxi because I was forced to evacuate my apartment, temporarily, due to a serious septic gas leak of hydrogen sulfide and had no choice but to leave until a broken sewer pump was repaired. But the female driver never showed. With my bags packed and hotel booked and budgeted for, I waited outside my apartment filled with fumes. That's when a lime green custom vehicle appeared. A young man exited, told me, didn't ask me, to get in. He explained he was my cab driver. The vehicle also was equipped with flashing laser green lights. Puzzled, I explained I was waiting for a woman cab driver who was driving a Continental. The young man told me she was "tied up". I told him I wasn't going with him. He then, approached me, handed me a cell phone, claiming his mother, the owner of Island Taxi, wants to talk to me. A woman on that phone explained she was the driver's mother and apologized she couldn't make it and was "tied up". She told me her son was safe to go with. Heading back to my apartment was not an option. And, the clock was ticking on my hotel room reserved in North Hero, VT. Tough situation. The young man told me his name was Brooke. I observed there were dozens of firefighters gathering at the fire station within a thousand feet of where this taxi driver-potential customer chat was taking place, so I felt I, at least, had credible witnesses if something were to happen. Brooke took my bags, stored them in his odd vehicle. While he did that, I walked around his "cab" and observed something very disturbing: A huge air brushed painting sprawled across his vehicle body of a female with long brown hair whose mouth was gagged with a RED GAG. I was taken back when I saw this since I had long brown hair and did not feel comfortable with the suggestion that a female should be gagged, with a gag that was red, green, blue or of any color. When I then asked him to remove my bags from his car, he aggressively objected to what he perceived to be negative criticism of what he called "his art". I insisted he remove my luggage from his vehicle and that I objected to his "art". Our conversation led to his promise that he was a safe driver and would get me to my hotel. I should have listened to my instincts and should not have given into his argument. At any rate, I got in. At that point, he locked all doors and engaged a switch that ignited laser green lights that lit up the inside floor boards. So, then, I was rather convinced I had made a huge mistake allowing this unusual person to convince me to get into an uncomfortable situation. When he drove me to the end of our parking lot, and, then, to the main road, he made a RIGHT, heading south, instead of LEFT, which would have been north and in the direction of my hotel. When I objected, he claimed he was taking me to the airport. Claimed he had just returned from Ukraine where he left his girlfriend who he claimed did not understand him and now I was somehow going to the airport. Now, my discomfort rose to panic. I was locked in and concerned he was abducting me. His demeanor was calm, low voice and creepy. He did not listen to any reasoning. I then threatened to call the sheriff. When I made moves to do that, he did a U-turn, claiming he was then taking me to my hotel. He continued his monologue which seemed like he was making references to human trafficking which I found very terrifying. He finally took me to the hotel parking lot, where those Grand Isle firefighters I saw earlier, were, coincidentally, gathered in a wake for a tragic loss of life of children of one of the firefighters. They were all dressed as super heroes in honor of the children. The entire experience was frightening. I do not recommend that any solo females use this cab company, unless the female owner is the driver. I later discovered this young male driver did have a criminal record and works also as a taxidermist. SOLO WOMEN BEWARE!
