Why should St. Simons be any different then everywhere else you have
lived. You have been bonkers ever since you started logging into
rec.boats. My guess is you were this way since birth.

Bull****. Savannah's airport handles all types of heavy passenger

When I want the opinion of an uneducated, semi-literate idiot, I'll let
you know. I flew into Savannah recently, and have done so about a half
dozen times. It's a dinky airport.

Savannah, though, is a very nice city.


Ohhhh, now I understand what you are looking for in a city. A city with
really big airport buildings. I thought you meant an airport that was
serviced on a regular basis by large planes. Savannah can handle and
has regular service by carriers using 727 etc, but the airport building
themselves are not as big as Atlanta, Chicago or NYC. You really do
have unique requirements for places to live. How big is the airport in
Costa Rica?

From where I live, Savannah is "served" mainly by the puddle-jumping
"partners" of the major airlines. The major airlines are crappy
enough...their "partners" are far worse.

United Express, operated by Mesa Airlines
US Airways Express
Delta, via "Freedom" Airlines
AirTran, from the wonderful folks who brought you ValuJet

Now, there are a couple of mainstays sprinkled about, but the majority
of the schedules indicate Savannah is a minor regional airport, just as
I described it.

As for the rest of your schitty opinion, well, you deserve the
usual...go foch yourself.

Isn't that a full length course? Does it play like a links course, must
get a bit windy when the sun comes up? We used to do quite a bit of water
skiing on Belmont Bay from about 6:30 AM to 8:30 AM from May to September,
when the Sun came up we went in because it started to get too choppy. From
the pictures I've seen they haven't learned how to use a lawn mower on the
rough at The Osprey.

I am going out to Cincinnati this weekend to play golf with a bunch of
guys. Five rounds in two and a half days. Sixteen hours of driving and
about 40 gallons of prime US gasoline out the tail-pipe.

Uh, Savannah isn't a "minor regional airport". It's an international
airport. Just because your local airport of choice isn't serviced
well, doesn't mean that Savannah is a minor regional airport.
And, US Airways, not express offers non-stop to Washington Reagan, and
there are many major airlines that can get you there with a change of
planes, non of which are puddle jumpers, but common carrier aircraft.

I wonder if you can get to Hilton Head's International Airport with a
direct flight from Harry's preferred airport.

Oh wait, Savannah is the largest airport serving Hilton Head. Never mind.

If Gulfstream wasn't headquartered in Savannah that airport wouldn't
support much more than a Cessna 182.

I've flown into and out of the airport serving Savannah at least a half
dozen times over the years. It's a small "regional" airport, not the
smallest or crummiest, just small.

I don't understand why the two Georgian troll brothers,
Loogy-between-the-Ears and Repulsive-Putrid-Schitt, are working so hard
to defend the airport. It serves its market and if it were a lot larger,
it would just encourage more growth in that part of the state. That's no
advantage.

One would hope it would never become another Atlanta airport, which gets
my vote for the worst large airport in the United States. It exists as
it is only for the convenience of the airlines, and once you are there,
if you are not changing planes, where are you? In Atlanta. Puke.

I work hard when I fly to avoid the Atlanta airport.
