Went to Thunderbird for an overnight tie down and fuel, staff was very friendly and helpfully, helped with our bags, called taxi for us, provided us with bottle water.

Flying Cloud has rental cars, but fuel may be cheaper at Crystal. Premier Jet Center at FCM are very friendly under new management and have awesome crew cars!

I'm trying to decide between landing at Crystal or Flying Cloud. I'll flying a Skyhawk and will need fuel, a tie-down and a rental car for a few days. Any thoughts to help me decide between the two airports?

How strange. We were just thinking about them at the same time.

Unfortunately with decline in GA they declared bankruptcy and closed down. No other buyers were available to run the business.
