Finally, an airport that is customer oriented. I travel quite a bit and this is one of the few airports I have been to that has offered free WiFi access. I don't have to succumb to Delta's association with T-Mobile and pay for access. WoooooHooooo!!!!!

This brings up an interesting question for us INFREQUENT TRAVELERS.

What does one need for wi-fi in most airports?

a laptop with either built in WiFi capability or a WiFi card.... many new (in the last couple of years) laptops have it built in. Macs it's be a standard feature for sometime now.

handhelds, you need at least Windows Mobile 2003 is my guess. and you need the information on settings for any, usually available from info kiosks in the airport.

Ft Lauderdale also had free wireless access.

We're very proud of our little airfield here....

It's constantly rated tops in the Conde Nash travel guides.

Next time you're in town, let us know. We can get together for a beer or 6!
