Pre-takeoff checklist
For those that have the luxury of being able to fly throughout Florida for fun, where are some spots that each of you feel should be on each of our "Bucket Lists"?
Key West: (KEYW) If you are flying into here, you will be dealing with Island Flying City Services. Adriana, and Mike are outstanding to work with, just remember these folks get tourists on a daily basis that come in with attitudes so if you fly in here, and you do not have an attitude you can expect to get customer service beyond belief from these two. (Just my personal experience of dealing with them on a weekly basis, and seeing what they go through, just while I'm at the FBO).
Restaurants: Best Happy Hour (The Boathouse) Their drink prices are OK, but their Happy Hour menu on the food can't be missed! Make sure you get the Cheese Bread, you'll thank me! Seafood (The Flaming Buoy Filet Co) Cuban (El Siboney) I don't recommend eating Cuban food anywhere else but here, while in Key West.
Transportation: Most folks call ahead on UNICOM and ask for a Taxi. I DO NOT recommend renting a car/van if you are here just for the day and you are staying in town. To really have fun on a day trip here, RENT a scooter, and enjoy bouncing all over the island, instead of paying rediculous Taxi fairs. (another option is to just call me, and see if I happen to be free that day!)
